Due to the fact that little has changed since the last update in 2001, staff used accepted volumes <br />and tasks to accomplish the recalculations. The area of increase appears to be in seed cost which has <br />increased dramatically in the last few years and some overhead adjustments in the program. <br />In an effort to ensure the financial warranty remains adequate to reclaim this site per the requirements <br />of the approved reclamation plan, DMG has updated the reclamation cost estimate (copy enclosed). <br />The site now appears to be under-bonded. Therefore, pursuant to Section 34-32.5-117(4) of the <br />Colorado Land Reclamation Act, adequate financial warranty must be submitted to DMG within <br />60 days of the mailing date of this report. Please submit a new bond in the amount of $18,921.00 or <br />an increase rider to the current bond for $2528.00 to bring the Warranty up to date. The increase <br />needs to be accepted prior to September 18th, 2006. Please review the enclosed figures as soon as <br />possible and contact our office if any calculation errors are noted. Warranty documents should be sent <br />to Elizabeth Shelton in the Denver Office at 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215, Denver, CO 80203. <br />If you need additional information, please contact me at the Division of Minerals and Geology, Grand <br />Junction Field Office, 101 South Third Street, Room 301, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501, telephone <br />no. 970-241-1117. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~ ~~~~r ~~~-- <br />G.
