Scott <br />Environmental Projection Specialist <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining, & Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street Rm. 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Re: Phillips County, Ward Pit (Permit No. M-2003-024) (CHS #40744) <br />Dear Mr. Scott: <br />Thank you for your correspondence dated June 16, 2009 (received by our office on June 17, 2009) <br />regarding the subject project. <br />A search of the Colorado Cultural Resource Inventory database indicated that no cultural resource <br />inventories have taken place in the vicinity of the proposed permit area and no historic properties have <br />been recorded therein. However, our files contain incomplete information for this area, as most of <br />Colorado has not yet been inventoried for cultural resources. As a result, there is the possibility that as <br />yet unidentified cultural resources exist within the proposed permit area. <br />Should human remains be discovered during mining activities, the requirements under State law CRS <br />24-80 part 13 apply and must be followed. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further assistance, please contact Shina <br />duVall, Section 106 Compliance Manager, at (303) 866-4674 or shina.duvalln,chs.state.co.us. <br />Sincerely, l <br />dward C.
