Sherman <br />Executive Director <br />Ronald W. Cattany <br />Division Director <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety has received a revision for the Bowie No. 2 Mine. The <br />revision was called complete on December 20, 2007. The decision due date is February 18, 2008. <br />In Technical Revision No. 51, Bowie Resources, LLC is proposing to allow approximately 1,800 cubic <br />yards of excess rock from the Bowie No. 2 Hubbard Creek vent shaft project to remain at the old Paonia <br />Sewage Lagoons, rather than transport it to the Bowie No. 1 Mine for permanent disposal, as is currently <br />approved. The Town of Paonia accepted the donated material so that the old sewage lagoons could be <br />reclaimed. The USDA-Forest Service is agreeable to issuing the town a Free-use permit for the use of the <br />material. <br />This revision is available for review at the Paonia Public Library, 140 Grand Avenue, Paonia, CO 81428. <br />If you have any questions, please contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Hseph ash <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />JJD/Ahd <br />M:\OSS\ahd\temp\C-CI-01 _C 1996083_JJD_ 12132007093356.doc <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver • Grand Junction • Durango Active and Inactive Mines
