We have received your minor revision application to revise your permit to conduct coal mining
in Colorado. Our initial review indicates that all preliminary items required by the Colorado
Surface Coal Mining Reclamation Act, Section 34 -33 -101 et seq., C.R.S., have been submitted.
Thus, your application has been considered complete for the purposes of filing as of September
5, 2012. All review and comment periods as provided in the Act and the Regulations initiate
from this date of filing.
The Division has reviewed your application and determined that it is adequate in terms of
meeting the requirements of the Act and Regulations. Enclosed you will find the Division of
Reclamation, Mining and Safety's Decision Form for the revision.
Documentation must be submitted to the Division demonstrating that a copy of the approved

Management. The material should be sent within 15 days of final approval.
Please refer to the Performance Bond heading on the enclosed decision form. If the amount of
Bond Held equals or exceeds the Revised Liability, you need not submit additional bond.
