Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Room 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />RE: Permit Revision No. 7 of New Horizon Permit Number C-81 -008 <br />This is a petition to the objection of Permit Revision 7. The Morgan property has <br />always been one of the nicer and most productive farms in this area.
