STATE OF COLORADO <br /> MINED LAND RECLAMATION DIVISION oe co <br /> Department of Natural Resources <br /> 1313 Sherman St., Room 215 <br /> Denver,CO 80203 * * <br /> 303 866-3567 18,76• <br /> FAX: 303 832-8106 <br /> Roy Romer, <br /> Governor <br /> Fred R.Banta, <br /> Division Director <br /> June 6, 1991 <br /> Mr, Robert Hagen, Director <br /> Albuquerque Field Office <br /> Office of Surface Mining <br /> Reclamation & Enforcement <br /> 625 Silver Avenue, S.W., Suite 310 <br /> Albuquerque, New Mexico 87102 <br /> RE: Coal Basin Mine (File No. C-81 -017) <br /> Dear Mr. Hagen: <br /> I would like to take this opportunity to summarize our conversation of <br /> June 5, 1991 , regarding the recent AFO inspection of the Coal Basin Site <br /> and federal inspections of permitted operations in Colorado. <br /> I understand that representatives of the Albuquerque Field Office and of <br /> the Western Support Center inspected the Coal Basin Site on June 5, 1991 . <br /> The purpose of the inspection was to gather information relevant to a <br /> reclamation cost estimate being prepared by the WSC. As we discussed, <br /> Colorado had not been notified of the inspection, contrary to <br /> 30 CFR 842.11 (a)(1 ) . <br /> I understand that this was not an oversight inspection. As such, I would <br /> not anticipate that any enforcement actions in the form of Ten Day Notices <br /> or Letters would result. It is my understanding the the lack of notification <br /> was an oversight within the AFO, and that the staff will be advised to observe <br /> proper notification procedures in the future. <br /> I would request that AFO provide us with copies of the inspection report and <br /> any relevant information obtained during the inspection. These materials <br /> would be helpful as we continue to monitor the site. <br />
