As per the DRMS Inspection and Corrective Action Report, dated April 9, 2007, the DRMS requested that the permit boundary and the affected area boundary far M-1983- 084 be marked with durable monuments or markers that are clearly visible and adequate to delineate such boundaries. The markers should have line-of-sight visibility along the entire boundary of the property line. In other words, when walking the boundary, a person should be able to see the next boundary marker behind or ahead while standing at any marker. The durable monuments should be constructed of rebar with an attached PVC cap on top painted orange for visibility. As we discussed in our meeting with you on May 8, 2007, the affected area boundary has never been surveyed nor has a legal description been created for this boundary. The DRMS mining permit file includes ahand-drawn boundary of the affected area from approximately 1998. We requested at the May 8, 2007, meeting that our client be allowed to mark the affected area boundary, during their upcoming Amendment process versus completing this action now, due to the enormous expense and time needed to mark this boundary. Additionally, due to issues with weather and other commitments, we requested a 30-day extension to June 30, 2007, for the completion of the marking of the permit boundary. As of June 28, 2007, the marking of the permit boundary was completed. Additionally, we have attached photographs that provide evidence of this completed action. The surveyor ran out of the rebar/orange cap markers, therefore, some markers are wooden lathes spray painted with orange. The surveyor will replace the wooden lathe markers with rebar/orange cap markers during the time period of July 5-6, 2007.
