Ossola <br />with the Las Animas County Planning and Land Use Office. Mr. Ossola has <br />raised concerns with fugitive coal dust from stockpiles at the Golden Eagle <br />and New Elk Mines, with dust from haul trucks being deposited on areas near <br />State Highway 12 between the two mines, and with the possibility of <br />spontaneous combustion within the stockpiled coal. <br />The Division will be conducting an inspection of the Golden Eagle and <br />New Elk Mines later this month to address these issues. We hope to resolve <br />any potential problems by the end of this month. Please look into these <br />concerns as soon as you can, and we will discuss them with you during the <br />inspection. Should you have any questions, please call me or Joe Dudash. <br />Sincerely, <br />/ <br />X Daniel I.
