Cattany <br />RE: Phil Sheridan Lode; Permit No. M-1988-081 / Division Director <br />Comstock Mining & Refining.; S~3 and Financial Warranty Increase Natural Resource Trustee <br />Dear Mr. Covey, <br />On September 27, 2006, the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety received the Transfer of Permit and <br />Succession of Operator (SO-03) Application for the Phil Sheridan Lode; Permit No. M-1988-081 to transfer the <br />permit from Comstock Mining & Refining to Harry Covey. <br />The Division conducted an inspection of the site on October 2, 2006 for the purpose of discussing the bond <br />increase for the site based on a previous inspection of July 19, 2006. The Division noted a number of items that <br />maybe performed by the operator to reduce the bond liability, and are noted in the October 2, 2006 inspection <br />report. The Division did revise the cost to revegetate the site based on the actual area that requires revegetaGon. <br />The estimate has been revised to $6,700.00. <br />Therefore, in order for the Division to approve SO-03, you must submit a bond in the amount of $6,700.00. <br />Attached is a copy of the revised portion of the Division's reclamation bond estimate. Please submit the bond by <br />December 1, 2006. <br />If you have any questions about this process or how the bond was calculated, please contact me at (303) 866-4943. <br />Sr ere /~ <br />EncaL S.
