Box 591 <br />Somerset, CO 81434 <br />RE: Minor Revision No. 97; West Elk Mine; File No. C-80-007 <br />Dear Ms. Welt; <br />°f Coro <br />R r <br /><;; <br />~' o <br />Roy Romer <br />Governor <br />Michael B. Lnng <br />Div i~ion Director <br />The Division proposes to approve Mountain Coal Company's application for a minor <br />revision to construct concrete gravel bunkers on the portal level east of the <br />existing trash dumpster area. <br />All comments regarding the reclamation bond have been adequately addressed. <br />Thank you for pointing out that the "old sewer plant" is still on site, as the <br />Division had credited the bond for this structure. A culvert design is probably <br />not necessary since the culvert in this area will only be extended to accommodate <br />the gravel bunkers. As Map 53 and 54 are currently being updated in Technical <br />Revision No. 64, MCC should ensure that these structures are added to these maps <br />prior to approval of that revision. <br />The following is the bond summary for this revision: <br />$4,352,091.00 Former liability (includes removal of office <br />trailers) <br />+ 25,734.00 Reclamation Costs for MR97 <br />$4,377,825.00 New liability <br />$4,400,000.00 Bond Amount <br />- 4,377,825.00 New liability <br />$ 22,175.00 Surplus <br />Please call if you have any questions. <br />Si <br /> <br />Christine E.
