A small portion of this ramp, estimated <br />at less than 1.5 acres, will be situated on private land whose coal is reserved to the U.S. but is not <br />cunently under lease. This land is adjacent to Federal Coal Lease C-034365. We have <br />determined that there will be no mineable coal removed from this un-leased land as a result of <br />this construction and that neither a lease modification nor an R2P2 modification will be <br />necessary. The Bureau of Land Management, Little Snake Field Office, therefore has no <br />objection to Colowyo proceeding with the proposed construction, subject to appropriate State of <br />Colorado and OSM approvals. <br />If you have any questions,'please contact Allan Young at (970) 826-5077. <br />Sincerely, <br />c.J.~--~ S u, <br />~v John E.
