Cattany <br />Division Director <br />RE: Bowie No. 2 Mine, Permit No. C-96-083, Bowie Resources LLC Natural Resource Trustee <br />Minor Revision No. 97, Emergency Escape Hoist, Adequacy Review <br />Dear Mr. Bear: <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety has finished its adequacy review of the Bowie <br />Resources LLC (BRL) submittal of Minor Revision No. 97 for the Bowie No. 2 Mine. The Division has no <br />adequacy review questions. However, the Division has calculated the reclamation cost estimate for MR-97. <br />Attached is the reclamation cost estimate for the emergency hoist at the Hubbard Creek vent shaft site and <br />a credit for construction not completed at the Hubbard Creek vent shaft. The estimate is two tasks (a <br />summary sheet and task 281) and represents a decrease in liability of $37,061.00. <br />The net decrease in liability is because of the credit BRL will receive for not constructing one of the, two <br />10.5 foot diameter Hubbard Creek vent shafts. <br />Please inform the Division in writing whether or not this reclamation cost estimate is acceptable to BRL. <br />If you have any questions, please call me. <br />Sincerely, <br />a <br />Josep J.
