F:operski <br />Mined Land P.eclamation Specialist <br />Colorado Department of Natural Resources <br />Mined Land Reclamation Board ' <br />615 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />Dear Maggie: <br />.`. <br />...n <br />~;~:_ <br />~a . <br />.. <br />-f+~ <br /> <br />Energy Fuels Corporation would like to make formal <br />application to the State Mined Land Reclamation Board for a <br />final bond release on two reclaimed areas which I sho~~7ed •:ou <br />on your December inspection. <br />These areas have both been seeded for over three <br />growing seasons, and it is our conclusion that reclamation <br />has been completed and the reclamation bond on these two <br />tracts should be released. <br />•In our efforts to comply with the existincJ reclamation <br />laws in force when these permits c•7ere grante3, we have <br />written a brief summary explaining our reclamation technicues <br />and demonstrating how we have complied with these laws. <br />The exact location of each area is found on the maps <br />enclosed as Exhibits 1 and 2. For the sake of brevity, we <br />have decided to call the area on. Exhibit 1 the "Pit 3 Seeding" <br />and the area on Exhibit 2 the "Fish Creek Seeding". The <br />area of the Fish Creek Seeding is 3.7 acres and the area of <br />the Pit 3 Seeding is 24.87 acres. <br />In evaluation of these stands to determine their <br />succes i~~l'd's we invited the Routt County Soil Conservation <br />Distric ~ Colorado State University Cooperative Exte^sion <br />Service, and the Range Scientist of the USDA, Agricultural <br />Research Service, Forage and Range Management Research, to <br />inspect these areas and comment on them. Their comments are <br />enclosed. As you will observe, these experts all agree that <br />reclamation has been completed to a point that the final <br />bond should be released and these areas again be subjected <br />to livestock grazing. <br /> <br />
