5TATE OF COLORADO <br /> DIVISION OF MINERALS AND GEOLOGY <br /> Department of Natural Resources oF co��� <br /> 1313 Sherman St.,Room 215 Nc <br /> Denver,CO 80203 <br /> r • <br /> Phone:(303)866-3567 *1g76+ <br /> FAX:(303)832-8106 <br /> Roy Romer <br /> Governor <br /> Michael B.Long <br /> Division Director <br /> October 13 , 1993 <br /> Ms. Diane Delaney <br /> Mid-Continent Resources, Inc. <br /> P.O. Box 1298 <br /> Glenwood Springs, CO 81602 <br /> RE: NOV C-93-108 and MR-42 ; Coal Basin Mines (C-81-017) <br /> Dear Ms. Delaney: <br /> Abatement of NOV C-93-108, which was issued for failure to include <br /> ownership and control information for the Coal Basin Mines, <br /> required submittal of identification of interest information for <br /> appropriate officers of Pitkin Iron Corporation, as required by <br /> Rule 2 . 03 .4 (3) . Abatement of the NOV was due by October 8, 1993 . <br /> In response to the NOV, Mid-Continent submitted MR-42 with <br /> ownership and control information. The revision was received by DMG <br /> on September 3 , 1993 . <br /> The proposed revision does not contain information regarding <br /> officers of Pitkin Iron. It does include an explanation that <br /> Pitkin Iron is not an owner or controller, as defined by the <br /> regulations. DMG does not agree with Mid-Continent's contention <br /> that Pitkin Iron does not meet the regulatory definition of owner <br /> and controller. Because DMG has just completed review of the <br /> proposed revision, the due date for abatement of the NOV is being <br /> extended to October 30, 1993 . This will allow Mid-Continent time <br /> to respond to this letter. <br /> In the proposed revision, MCR contends there is no applicant or <br /> operator conducting surface coal mining operations on the site. <br /> The definitions of "applicant" and "operator" in Rule 1. 04 are used <br /> as the basis for this contention. However, the relevant section of <br /> Rule 1. 04 (83a) also refers to any "other entity" conducting surface <br /> coal mining operations. <br />
