Dept. of Natural Reso~!rces <br />Per our discussion of September 29, 1982, 3 copies of the Blue Ribbon <br />mine map are enclosed. This should serve as an accurate indication of mine <br />progress and mine projections for the five year term. In Blue Ribbon Coal <br />Company's mine case the projections are life of mine since five years of <br />mining at projected rates would exhaust existing reserves. This map correctly <br />defines variances from information now included in the permit application <br />under Exhibit C, Mine Layout Map and Exhibit S, Mine Production Map. <br />It is now believed that the projection of a North sub-mains under less <br />cover and the resulting panel development east will maximize both mine safety <br />and coal recovery. Marv Adam in our Delta Office has requested United States <br />Mineral Management agreement with these changes through Barry Kita in the <br />Grand Junction, Colorado office. Based on your request he asked yesterday, <br />September 30, 1982, that Mineral Management provide written documentation of <br />their review of the mine plan change. <br />Also, be advised that John Gabossi resigned as Mine Superintendent. <br />Julian Mitchell will serve as interim Superintendent. Correct communica- <br />tion channels will continue to be the Blue Ribbon Superintendent with a copy <br />of correspondence to Marv Adam, the Delta Operations Chief Engineer. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />/lr <br />~,9.Q,~~.-~s~~- <br />William S.
