RESOLUTION #76-45
RE: Amended Anschutz Special Review Use Permit,
Amending Resolution #75-65 Adopted September 22, 1975
WHEREAS, Anschutz Coal Corporation (hereinafter "Anschutz
Coal) has applied to the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County
(hereinafter the "Board) for a Special Review Permit pursuant to Section VI
of the Pitkin County Zoning Resolution for a proposed underground mining
operation and related surface facilities at the Thompson Creek Coal mine
in, on and under the real property more specifically described in
Exhibits A and B attached hereto (hereinafter the "Lands"); and
WHEREAS, on April 30, 1975, the Pitkin County Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended approval of the special review permit
subject to certain conditions; and
WHEREAS, on June 9, 1975, a Public Hearing was held pursuant
to the Pitkin County Zoning Resolution and such hearing was continued
until July 21, 1975, to enable Anschutz Coal to present additional infor-
mation to the Board, and to provide for additional public comment, and
WHEREAS, such hearings and proceedings have resulted in the
issuance of a certain limited improvement permit to install footings and
foundations for certain of the proposed improvements, without prejudice
to the possible denial of said special review permit; and
WHEREAS, the proposed mine is located in a remote area of
Pitkin County which presents certain management hardships for Pitkin
County unless it is meticulously controlled and regulated; and
WHEREAS, significant possibility exists for air and water
pollution caused by the operation planed, which necessitates strict
environmental controls; and
WHEREAS, a special review permit should not be granted absent
the imposition of conditions which require that the installation and
operation at the Lands, more particularly described on Exhibit A
(hereinafter the "Minesite") shall have "no significant adverse effect"
on the adjacent landowners, stream and air quality, road congestion,
wildlife, and the general public interest; and

WHEREAS, a special review permit should require Minesite
inspections during the course of construction and operation of the mine
to assure compliance with terms and intent of the special review permit;
and
WHEREAS, the special review permit should provide for an
annual hearing to determine the continued compliance thereof with the
conditions of this resolution and permit;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board hereby approves
Anschutz Coal's special review application under the Pitkin County Zoning
resolution and grants to the Anschutz Corporation and to Anschutz Coal
(hereinafter called collectively "Anschutz"), their successors and
assigns, the right and privilege to use the Lands for developing, mining,
washing, storing, and otherwise preparing for market, using, transporting,
loading, shipping and selling coal, coke and other products of coal,
including the rights to use the Lands to construct, maintain, enlarge,
repair, alter and operate all pipelines, conveyors, telephone Lines,
power lines, tipples, coal washing facilities, buildings, shops, plants,
fixtures and structures, as may be necessary, useful or convenient to
its use of the Lands for the life of the mine subject to the terms and
conditions as follows, the Board hereby concluding that upon the following
terms and conditions all of the findings required by Section VI of the
Pitkin County Zoning Resolution can be and are hereby made:
1. Strict Compliance - Anschutz shall not engage in any aspect
of any development except in strict compliance with all
conditions hereof, all of which are imposed pursuant to the
above referenced authority, or to other delegated authority,
including, e.g., H.B. 1041.
2. Permits - Anschutz Coal agrees to obtain all necessary permits
and approvals from all federal, state and local agencies prior
to the commencement of the activity or operation which is the
subject of such permit or approval. Anschutz further agrees to
comply with and abide by all federal, state and local laws,
regulations, orders, permits and and approvals in conduct of
its operations and activities on the Lands. Anschutz is required
specifically to comply with all conditions of permits required
by the Garfield County Commissioners and the City of Carbondale,
Anschutz may, of course, contest in good faith any such laws,
regulations, orders or the like.
Anschutz shall furnish copies of all permits it obtains relating
to operations or activities on the Lands to the Board.
- 2 -
3. Reclamation and Revegation of Mine Site and Accessory Areas -
a. If reasonably required by the Board and consistent with
the plan described in paragraph 8 below, Anschutz shall
construct berms above and below the existing concrete
covering of North Thompson Creek at the Mine Site so as to
preserve the stream from surface runoff pullution, protect
aquatic habitat, and the like. Surface drainage shall be
channeled to settling ponds. The disturbed area shall be
revegetated as part of the revegetation plan.
b. Above the No. 1 Mine opering and the concrete culvert, the
northeast area of the stream side shall be riprapped with
large boulders or equivalent to prevent additional erosion
of the stream bank.
c. All trash, scrap iron, etc., shall be removed from the
North Thompson Creek stream on the Lands and within 30
feet of the stream bed.
d. If reasonably required by the Board and consistent with
the plan described in paragraph 8 below, certain sections
of North Thompson Creek shall be rechanneled in order to
create a buffer zone between the stream and the mine activity
and dump tailings thus reducing the potential for stream
pollution. Such rechanngelization shall be accomplished
according to the implementation technique and design criteria
of the Division of Wildlife as more fully described in
Exhibit I. The channelization shall be conducted under
the direct supervision of the Division of Wildlife. Such
rechannelization work shall be accomplished by the time
of the first annual permit hearing.
e. All areas where excavation and construction, if any, has
been completed shall be restored to slopes less than 45
degrees, unless a greater slope is approved in advance
by the County Engineer; top soil shall be applied sufficient
to allow revegetation; and reseeded and planted with plant
species appropriate to the area. Anschutz shall, in con-
sultation with, among others, the Pitkin County Extension
agent, develop a specific revegetation plan that shall be
subject to the Board's reasonable approval. At the
earliest practible time during operations, unless a longer
time is approved by the Board, Anschutz shall stabilize and
revegetate the surface disturbed in the operation and/or
construction to a natural-appearing condition. At all times
Anschutz shall take such measures as will prevent or control
on-site and off-site damage to the environment and public
health or safety, relating to or caused by Anschutz's
operations on the Lands, including, but not limited to:
i) control of erosion and landslides;
ii) control of water runoff;
iii) isolation, removal or control of toxic materials;
iv) reshaping and revegetation of disturbed areas pursuant
to revegetation procedures developed by Anschutz in
consultation with the Pitkin County Extension Agent
and approved by the Board (e.g., minimally the require-
ments shall be as set forth in Exhibits C and D);
- 3 -
v) stabilization of access roads by proper grading,
grade control, surface treatment and vegetation.
Inspection by the Pitkin County Extension Agent and/or other
appropriate government officials shall be permitted to evaluate
rehabilitation measures and success of revegetation.
4, Agricultural Conservation - Anschutz shall coordinate its mining
operations with the reasonable movement of cattle through the
Lands by the North Thomppon-Four Mile Mineral and Land Corpora-
tion and other stock users of the county road through the Lands
so as not to adversely affect the reasonable movement of
cattle or existing agricultural uses in the area without the
consent of those engaged in such activities.
5, Wildlife -
a. The Division of Wildlife has, by letter dated July 18, 1975,
expressed concern for disturbance of elk wintering areas
on the south aspect of Stony Ridge due to the location of
a mine air ventilation blower. Upon determination by the
Division of Wildlife, after hearing, that the air blower
interferes with effective utilization of the Stony Ridge
area for winter range habitat, Anschutz agrees to contri-
bute reasonable, appropriate funds or services, or both,
for specific habitat improvement measures on other winter
ranges in order to prevent a loss of elk habitat through
depletion of winter range. The amount of such reasonable
monies or services to be designated for such purposes shall
be determined by the Board on advice of the Division of
Wildlife and after consultation with Anschutz.
b. It is recognized that additional car traffic in the area
and the extended hours of operation of the mine may facilitate
poaching of game. Anschutz shall develop rules for employees
to minimize or eliminate such poaching.
6. Environmental Health - Anschutz hereby agrees to obtain applicable
approvals of the Environmental Protection Agency and Colorado
Department of Health of its water and sewer systems and to abide
by appropriate federal., state and local laws and regulations for
such operations regarding control of fugitive dust, air pollution
and noise generation.
Anschutz Coal represents that potable water will be obtained
from the underground mine for use at the Minesite. The Colorado
Department of Health will approve the water source. Should the
water prove unsuitable for domestic use, Anschutz Coal agrees
to consult with the Board before taking any action to obtain
senior adjudicated water rights involving any change from
irrigation or domestic uses. Anschutz shall reimburse annually
the County for the County's actual and reasonable costs of monitoring
and sampling air and water to determine compliance with this permit
not to exceed $1,000.00 as adjusted by changes in the cost of
living index. Such costs may be increased pursuant to a budget
presented to Anschutz at or before any annual hearing and reasonably
approved by the Board.
It is acknowledged by the parties that the goal of this permit is
to eliminate discharge of pollutants into North Thompson Creek and
that the original standards of this section were designed to
attempt to accomplish this goal; and that it has developed that
such original standards were impractical in that it was apparently
difficult to separate natural from Anschutz-caused pollution.
Therefore on an interim basis only, and not to be interpreted
as permanent standards, and after consultation with Anschutz, the
following interim discharge standards are specified which standards
shall remain in effect until September 24, 1976:
- 4 -
PARAMETER
1) Total Dissolved Solids
2) Sulfates
3) Iron (Total)
4) Total hardness
5) pH
6) Suspended solids
REQUIREMENT
1300 mg/1 or 2400 x stream flow
in cfs, whichever is less
600 mg/1 or 1200 x stream flow
in cfs, whichever is less
1.0 mg/1 or 1.8 x stream flow
in cfs, whichever is less
600 mg/1 or 1200 x stream flow
in cfs, whichever is less
6.0 to 9.0
40 mg/1
Insofar as it is practical, discharge from the mines will be at
a continuous rate. Anschutz Coal Corporation shall continue to
diligently implement the Briscoe-Maphis-Murray-Lamont Plan for
the capture and impoundment of surface run-off waters. Monitoring
results of creek and mine discharges taken by Anschutz shall be
forwarded to the County, and the County shall have the right to
conduct its own sampling program on lands owned or leased by
Anschutz Coal Corporation.
During the period between execution of this amended permit
and August 9, 1976, Anschutz shall diligently proceed to develop
a plan, the goal of which is to eliminate discharge of pollutants
into North Thompson Creek. The standard shall be to develop a
plan, and a rapid implementation schedule, comprised of the very
best control and treatment measures that have been, or are capable
of being achieved.
In the event no plan is presented or in the event the plan presented
does not meet the standards herein, or Anschutz fails to agree to
implement an acceptable plan, then any such event shall be grounds
for termination of this permit. A plan which equals or substantially
approximates pollutant control of zero discharge is sufficient.
In the event the parties are unable to agree on an acceptable plan
or on permanent standards prior to annual review, the permit shall
terminate.
In addition to requiring the diligent construction of an acceptable
water pollution control plan as a condition for continuation of this
permit beyond the first annual review hearing, the Board shall also
at that time specify new discharge standards (as opposed to the
interim standards set forth above.)

7. Scenic Values - Anschutz shall to the extent practicable,
harmonize operations with scenic values through such measures
as the design and location of operating facilities, including
roads and other means of access, vegetative screening of
operations, and construction of structures and improvements
which blend with the landscape.
8. Surface Drainage and Storm Runoff Management - Anschutz Coal
agrees to prepare at its expense a master plan for surface
drainage and storm runoff management. Such plan shall be
prepared by a qualified expert and be subject to the reasonable
approval of the Board. The plan shall (a) include an implemen-
tation schedule; (b) be submitted to the Board for approval
within thirty (30) days of the effective date of this permit;
and (c) include an analysis of flood danger to the Minesite; and
(d) be in substantial conformance with Briscoe-Maphis guidelines
as described in Exhibit G. The plan is hereby incorporated as
a condition of this permit.
9. Solid Waste Disposal - Anschutz Coal agrees to prepare at its
expense a plan for solid waste disposal. Such plan shall be
prepared by a qualified expert and be subject to reasonable
approval of the Board. The plan shall (a) include provisions
for the concerns expressed by the Colorado Geological Survey by
letter dated July 30, 1975; (b) include an implementation schedule;
and (c) be submitted to the Board for approval within 30 days of
the effective date of this permit; and (d) be in substantial
conformance with Briscoe-Maphis guidelines as described in
Exhibit H. The plan is hereby incorporated as a condition of
this permit. In the event that the proposed disposal site is
insufficient for the term of this permit, Anschutz Coal and the
Board shall reasonably agree upon a new site when needed and,
absent such agreement following good faith negotiation, this
permit shall lapse.
10. Bureau of Land Management - Anschutz agrees to cooperate with
the Bureau of Land Management plans and programs for establish-
ment of the proposed Thompson Creek Natural Environmental Area.
11. Mine Subsidence Report - A mine subsidence report has been furnished
by Anschutz pursuant to the recommendations of the Colorado Geo-
logical Survey, and such a report has been reviewed and approved
by the Colorado Geological Survey.
12. Schools Impact - Based upon Anschutz Coal's operations as
projected in paragraph 8(a) of Exhibit E, the Roaring Fork
School District, RE-1 by L. Allen, Superintendent, states that
Anschutz Coal "will not create any substantial financial or
space problem for the school district." This has been confirmed
by the present superintendent, Nicholas R. Massaro. In the event
the Anschutz Coal school children projections are exceeded in
fact by more than 150, the Board and Anschutz Coal shall consider
at the annual hearing whether additional commitments should be
made by Anschutz Coal, if the additional Anschutz Coal employee
students beyond those projected has created a financial or
space problem for the school district.
13. Housing Impact - Anschutz believes that the private sector is
capable of supplying adequate housing for Anschutz Coal employ-
ment and population impacts, based upon employment projections
contained in Exhibit E. The Board may consider at the annual
hearing whether housing impacts have adequately been met in fact.
If, in the Board's reasonable opinion, they have not, as a result
of Anschutz's having so exceeded those projections, the Board
may require Anschutz Coal to take reasonable measures, after
consultation with Anschutz, to alleviate those impacts.
- 6 -
-. e,
14. Dog Control - Dogs will be permitted on the Lands only if
under the leash control of the owner, so as to minimize
possible negative wildlife impacts.
15. H.B. 1041 Designations - Official historic sites in existence
on the Lands shall be preserved in their natural state.
Anschutz agrees to cooperate with the Board to obtain historic
designation for the Spring Gulch Coal Mine site and coking ovens
under H.B. 1041. The Board will provide Anschutz Coal with
wt`itten notice of any proposed designation pursuant to H.B.
1041 which may affect the Lands. Such notice shall be given
to Anschutz Coal prior to 20 days before the public hearing
to be held concerning the proposed designation.
16. Utilities - Anschutz represents that appropriate utility
service is available on the Minesite for the mine facilities
and operations.
17. Tax and Management Hardships - The tax revenue projections in
Exhibit E prepared by Anschutz Coal are represented as minimal
revenues to Pitkin County given the existing mill levy, the
manner of assessment, and other relevant financial data, and
appear to represent minimal hardships to Pitkin County given
strict compliance with the conditions of this permit. In the
event the actual revenues are at least 15 per cent less than
the projected revenues, the Board and Anschutz Coal may consider
at the annual hearing requiring additional financial commitments
from Anschutz Coal if that disparity results in tax and management
hardships for the County or the special taxing districts therein
by virtue of Anschutz's activities and operations under this
permit.
18. Road and Transportation -
a. Anschutz Coal agrees to limit speeds of company vehicles
to 40 miles per hour on the Pitkin County Minesite access
road and to take reasonable steps to help assure that
employees do not exceed that limit on the road.
b. Anschutz shall encourage car pooling among employees to
and from the Minesite.
c. In cooperation with the City of Carbondale and Garfield
County, Anschutz will investigate the installation of a
bus shuttle for its employees. Pitkin County offers to
operate such service in return for Anschutz Coal's
rebating the actual costs of that service, as determined
by the Pitkin County Finance Officer, to Pitkin County.
d. In the first year of operations, Anschutz shall install no
more than 20 parking spaces on the Lands.
e. The intent of the provisions of paragraphs 18(b), (c) and
(d) is to encourage car pooling, busing, etc., and to
lessen motor vehicle traffic in the area.
f. Road Improvement Schedule - Anschutz will be responsible
for the design, construction, and maintenance of all
stages of improvement to the road access within Pitkin
County in support of the Anschutz mining activities. All
such improvements shall be reasonably approved by the
Pitkin County Engineer. Improvement shall be implemented
according to the report, "Anschutz Coal Company - Roadway
Access" prepared by Briscoe, Maphis, Murray & Lamont, Inc.,
which is hereby incorporated as a condition of this permit
(Exhibit F).
Pitkin County shall pay to Anschutz a sum not exceeding
(a) the gross ton-mile tax revenues generated by this
Anschutz operation and received by Pitkin County or (b)
Anschutz's actual maintenance and road construction costs,
whichever is less. Pitkin County shall have no further
liability other than as stated for payment or reimbursement
of Anschutz for required road improvements.
g. Anschutz agrees to apply for and obtain building
permits for construction of new roads on the lands
within Pitkin County.
19. Existing Mine Refuse Fire - Approximately three quarters of
a mile from the Minesite, there is evidence of fire caused
by spontaneous combustion of a dump area into which coal wastes
from the former operation had been placed. The evidence of the
fire is that of small wisps of smoke coming from the edge of
the refuse dump. This is the remaining remnants of refuse
burning. Anschutz Coal represents that to disturb the surface
from which the small amount of smoke is emanating would result
in an outbreak of fire to larger areas, in that increased
oxygen would be added because of the disturbed areas, and that,
therefore, the area should remain undisturbed and the fire
allowed to burn out. Anschutz Coal shall fence and post the
area from the roadside to protect persons from possible fire
danger and shall provide the Board with written evidence to
support its conclusion from another qualified authority within
ninety days.
20. Fire Protection - Fire Protection will be the responsibility of
Anschutz Coal and will be provided by fire control systems,
including high pressure pumps, as well as chemical fire
extinguishers strategically located. Anschutz Coal agrees to
immediately notify the U.S. Forest Service if any fire should
develop on the Lands which may threaten federal lands or require
federal assistance to extinguish.
21. Security of the Property and Equipment - Security of property
and equipment of Anschutz Coal shall be the responsibility of
Anschutz Coal. The Pitkin County Sheriff's Office shall be
informed of any acts requiring their notification.
22. Additional Mine Portals, etc. - The opening of additional mine
portals or creation of new run-off or effluent discharge points
into North Thompson Creek or other streams shall require an
amendment to these permit conditions.
23. Change in Ownership - In the event of any change of ownership
(fee or lease) in the Lands, Anschutz shall notify the succeeding
owner or lessee of the terms of this permit by letter, a copy
of which shall be forwarded to the Board. In the event Anschutz
is succeeded in operation on the Lands by legal process or order
of court, the new operator shall be required to make application
to the Board for approval of it and for continuance under this
permit, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
24. Recordation of Permit - This permit shall be recorded in the
office of the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder, and shall con-
stitute a burden running with the land.
25. Public Liability Insurance Policy - Anschutz Coal agrees to
post with the Board a public liability insurance policy in the
initial sum of $300,000 for the benefit and purpose for the
protection of Pitkin County, and to indemnify and hold harmless
the County, from any liability arising out of the maintenance,
existence or operations of Anschutz Coal on or relating to the
Lands or arising from the issuance of this permit; such sum
may be increased if the Board determines, after consultation
with Anschutz Coal, it is reasonably necessary to do so.
26. Performance Bond - In order to insure compliance with the revege-
tation and reclamation conditions of this permit, Anschutz Coal
agrees to furnish to the Board a performance bond in the amount
of $20,000. In the event Anschutz Coal's activities and opera-
tions on the Lands are conducted at a rate and extent which is
less than that set forth in this permit and the Exhibits hereto,
Anschutz Coal shall only be required to satisfy the conditions
of this permit (other than revegetation and reclamation which
must be satisfied regardless) as are reasonable in light of the
then rate and extent of Anschutz's activities and operations on
the Lands.
27. Non-Compliance - Public Hearing -
a. In the event that the Board determines that probable cause
exists that Anschutz is not acting in substantial compliance
herewith, the Board may issue and serve upon Anschutz a
written order which shall specify the nature of the alleged
non-compliance, and such order shall require Anschutz to
cease and desist from such non-compliance within such
reasonable time as the Board may determine. Within seven
days after the receipt of such order, Anschutz may file
with the Board either a notice advising the Board that Anschutz
is now in compliance or a written petition requesting a
hearing to determine any one or both of the following matters:
(i) Whether the alleged non-compliance exists or did exist; or
(ii) Whether a variance or extension of time should be granted
with respect to any such non-compliance which is determined
to exist.
Upon the receipt of such a petition, the Board shall promptly
schedule a public hearing at a reasonable time and place to
consider the matters set forth in the cease and desist order
and in the petition. The hearing shall be convened and con-
ducted pursuant to the procedures normally established by
the Board for other public hearings. The burden of going
forward with the evidence as to the existence of compliance
shall be upon Anschutz; and Anschutz shall bear the burden
of going forward with the evidence and the burden of proof
relating to the reasonableness of requests for extensions
of time and variances. If the Board determines by a prepon-
derance of the evidence that non-compliance exists that has
not been remedied, it may issue such orders as may be appro-
priate under the circumstances; provided, however, no order
terminating the permit shall enter without the Board's finding
substantial evidence warrants that action. The Board may
stay its order pending further review at the instance of
Anschutz. If it does not so stay its order, the order shall
be effective upon delivery to Anschutz, which may, of course,
seek a judicial stay, A final determination of material
non-compliance which has not been remedied or for which no
variance has been granted shall at the option of the Board
terminate this permit and Anschutz shall be required to
discontinue its operations hereunder within such reasonable
time thereafter as the Board may determine.
b. On or before October 1, 1976, or each year, BEGINNING WITH
THE YEAR 1976, Anschutz Coal and the Board shall select a
date for the public hearing and publish public notice thereof,
at which hearing the Board shall review Anschutz Coal's
operations on or relating to the Lands and shall give the
public an opportunity to comment thereon. At the conclusion
of such hearing, the Board shall determine whether Anschutz
has substantially complied with the terms of this permit and,
if it has not, th? Board may issue a cease and desist order
and otherwise follow the procedures set forth in paragraph
27 (a) hereof. The Board has the right to waive the holding
of the annual hearing upon prior notice to Anschutz and to any
known interested parties.
c. In the event that the Board determines that material and
reasonable conditions not now included or incorporated in
this permit should be added to the permit for the•prupose
of protecting the health and safety of the present and
future inhabitants of Pitkin County from Anschutz's activities
or operations on or relating to the Lands, the Board may issue
and serve upon Anschutz a written notice which sets forth the
language of the proposed condition ofr conditions. Within
- ~ -
~ook319 ~au~~~~~~~
seven days after the receipt of such notice, Anschutz shall
file with the Board a written response advising the Board
that either (a) it agrees that the proposed condition or
conditions may be added to this permit or (b) it requests
a hearing relating to the proposed condition or conditions.
Upon the receipt of such a request for hearing, the Board
shall promptly schedule a public hearing at a reasonable
time and place to consider the proposed condition or condi-
tions. It may hold such hearing in conjunction with the
annual hearing specified in paragraph 27 (b). The hearing
shall be convened and conducted pursuant to the procedures
normally established by the Board for other public hearings.
If the Board determines by a preponderance of the evidence
that additional reasonable and material conditions to this
permit are necessary to protect the health and safety of
the present and future inhabitants of Pitkin County from
Anschutz's activities or operations on or relating to the
Lands, the Board may promulgate such additional material
and reasonable conditions to this permit. The Board's final
conditions shall be effective upon delivery to Anschutz;
however, the enforcement of such conditions shall be stayed
pending final administrative and judicial review initiated
by Anschutz, if any, which review shall be filed within the
time specified in Rule 106 (b), Colo. Rules Civ. Pro.
28. Record Made - Amendments - Anschutz's plans, supporting permit
data, maps and statements to the Board shall constitute and
contain Anschutz's program. Anschutz may not materially and
adversely change or modify its program without prior submission
thereof in writing to the Board and approval by the Board after
public hearings if the Board so desires.
29. Non-Severability - This permit is granted only upon each and every
condition herein stated. If any condition hereof be challenged
by the applicant and held invalid by a Court of competent juris-
diction for any reason, unless otherwise determined by the Board
upon Anschutz's application the whole permit shall lapse and
be thereby terminated pending remand to the Board for the formu-
lation of proper or lawful conditions in accordance with the
ruling of the Court and reissuance, if any, of the permit. The
Board shall act upon such remand within a reasonable period not
to exceed 60 days unless such period is inadequate in the cir-
cumstances because of the necessity to assemble scientific data.
and the like, in which event it shall be as soon as reasonably
possible. In the event there is enacted supervening federal or
state law or regulations imposing greater restrictions or pre-
empting the field of any condition, the permit shall continue
notwithstanding such change.
30. Notice - All notices issued to Anschutz hereunder shall be de-
livered by mailing to Anschutz at P.O. Box 980, Carbondale,
Colorado 81623, with a copy by mail to Albert M. Keenan, 1110
Denver Club Building, Denver, Colorado 80202. Notices to the
Board shall be mailed to it at 506 E. Main Street, Aspen, Colo-
rado 81611, with a copy to the Pitkin County Attorney, at the
same address.
