I have worked in Security at the Cripple <br />Creek and Victor Gold llMine for over 13 years. I have raised 4 <br />children and provided an income and health benefits to them and my <br />husband while working here. I am. not alone, the mine employs over <br />300 people all of whom have families that are provided for because a <br />family member works here. <br />Over the years I have seen the mine donate time, money and <br />products to hundreds of community projects because they are a part <br />of this community. <br />This area, around Victor and Cripple Creek, has been a mining <br />district for over a hundred years. Families that have lived here for <br />generations know that' and I knew that when I moved here 15 years <br />ago. Mining was and isj the livelihood of this area. <br />In the 13 years I've worked at CC & V they have complied with all of <br />their permit requirements and been an environmentally responsible <br />member of this community. <br />.It is my sincere hope the permit application will be approved. <br />Debbi Houston
