As you are aware, due to the drought in 2002, we were <br /> not able to proceed with the high elevation revegetation treatments that were <br /> planned, which would have used up the 319 funds remaining in this contract. We <br /> have also obtained additional grant funds from the FY 2002 EPA award which <br /> will supplement the effort to establish vegetation and stabilize the <br /> outslopes. We will proceed with a new contract for the FY 02 funds when they <br /> become available. <br /> I am formally requesting and extension of the Coal Bain 319 contract to June <br /> 30, 2005 . That will allow for two fall seasons in 2003 and 2004 to conduct <br /> the needed vegetation treatments, assuming fairly normal precipitation <br /> conditions with some fall rain and/or snowpack. EPA Region VIII has reviewed <br /> and approved the revised project plan and extended schedule. <br /> If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 303-866-3813. <br /> Jim Herron <br /> Nonpoint Source Projects Supervisor <br /> Division of Minerals and Geology <br /> Department of Natural Resources <br /> CC: "Renner, Steve" sqr@dmq-xl.state.co.us <br />
