Lone <br />Dear Mr. and Mre. Stratman; o~.,,ion Duecini <br />During the Division's last inspection of the O.C. Coal Mine conducted on <br />September 25, 1995, I met with Mre. Stratman and Bob Harris who represents the <br />Gunnison County Road and Bridge division. The purpose of our meeting was to <br />discuss a reclamation plan for the road which would satisfy you as the landowner, <br />and the county. I am providing this letter as a summary of our meeting. Please <br />let me know if I have misstated anything that was discussed. <br />The road to the mine is a county road and ends at the mine. In the past, the <br />county has used the lower bench of the O.C. f2 Mine for their turn-a-round for <br />snow plows and other road maintenance equipment. With the reclamation of the <br />mine, the use of the bench for a turn-a-round is no longer feasible. There is <br />a wide spot in the road between the entrance gate to the mine and where the road <br />splits. Mr. Harris believed this section of road would be adequate to use as a <br />turn-a-round. You stated that you had no objections and et ated that you would <br />like the road to the upper bench and explosive magazines to be reclaimed. Mr. <br />Harris stated that the county would continue to maintain the culvert installed <br />by the county that is located to the east of the mine identification sign. He <br />also stated that when the mine is reclaimed it should continue to drain water <br />away from the road. The reclamation plan will ensure that water will continue <br />to drain away from the road. <br />According to you and Mr. Harris, Mr. Weaver hoe met with Marlene Crosby of the <br />Road and Bridge division and discussed the same plan. Mr. Weaver and I also <br />discussed this plan the day after we met and he confirmed his understanding of <br />the plan. <br />Please call if you have any questions. <br />' ~~ <br />_ / <br />Christine E. .Y27hn <br />Environmental Pr ec ion Specialist <br />cc: Bob Harris, Gunnison County Road & Bridge <br />Robert Weaver <br />CEJ/002RD.925 <br />
