Burgmaier <br />CDRMS <br />1313 Sherman St. Rm 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Dear Ms. Burgmaier: <br />File Code: 2820 <br />RECEIVED Date: November 21, 2014 <br />DEC 0 2 2014 <br />Reclamation, <br />& Safety <br />The Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre and Gunnison National Forests (GMUG) has completed its review of <br />Bowie Resources, LLC's Minor Revision 165. This minor revision would provide for the construction of a <br />light use road to allow safer access to install methane pumps on existing and future gob vent boreholes. <br />Approximately 1.2 acres of new surface disturbance associated with the roadway is anticipated from <br />MR-165. <br />As a result of our review of the adequacy of measures to protect federal resources and the post mining <br />land use, we identified that the impacts of this minor revision are outside the jurisdiction of the USFS as <br />no Forest lands are affected by MR -165. Therefore, no conditions for the use and protection of USFS <br />lands are warranted. <br />Please contact Jessica Lopez Pearce at ilopezpearce @fs.fed.us or 970 -487 -3534 with any questions you <br />may have. <br />Sincerely, <br />4111-Ile-WI <br />LEVI K.
