The Agreement states that ACS shall be responsible for any damages that occur, as a result of mining activities, to any permanent structures within 200 feet of the affected land.

These agreements are required by the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety. The County enters into these agreements with the operators of new pits when those pits are within 200 feet of our roads. The County also gets signatures of property owners when our mines are within 200 feet of their structures. What options exist for the Board?
