Larson, President <br />Energy Fuels Corporation <br />3 Park Central, Suite 900 <br />1515 Arapahoe <br />Denver, CG 80202 <br />Dear ttr. Larson: <br />iaarch 26, 19a1 <br />It has come to my attention that our letter dated ttarcn 24, 1981, spoke <br />to the lifting of the order to mine and stockpile tie Lennox coal seam, <br />but failed to address the second issue raised in WPC's letter of July <br />24, 1480. That issue being a request for authorization to spoil or <br />waste non-merchantable Lennox coal. Please be assured that [he <br />oversight was unintentional. <br />Please consider this letter as an addendum to our letter of March 24, <br />1901. Further, this letter constitutes Geological Survey's <br />authorization for wasting or spoiling of non-merchantable Lennox coal <br />from Federal coal leases C-22644 and C-081330 as set forth in <br />Stipulation 15 of the Office of Surface dining (USii) approval of Marcn <br />26, 1930 of Energy Fuels Surface Mining and Reclamation Plan for No. 1 <br />and 2 Mines and Extension Into Eckman Park. Your attention is directed <br />to Stipulation 1~ in that it states the "...expressed written consent <br />of the regulatory authority and [he USGS Area dining Supervisor", is <br />required. This office presumes the referenced "regulatory authority" <br />refers to OSM's written consent or authorization. <br />Energy Fuels Corporation is encouraged to continue to expend efforts to <br />find and/or develop a market for this coal. <br />Authorization to spoil the Lennox coal does not relieve you of other <br />obligations under Stipulation 15 of [he OSt'I approval. Prior to <br />spoiling rider seams (other than Lennox) and/or Wadge coal seam splits, <br />written consent of the regulatory authority ana the USGS riining Super- <br />visor is required. <br />Your continued cooperation is appreciated. <br />Sincerely ~ rs~ .- MPS ,~ 0 19~~' <br />~-rte:... .__/•; d;•_. ..•ti,.-/ <br />.
