involvement when the mine permit
application is processed.
The proposed Red Cliff Mine is
located approximately 11 miles north of
the towns of Mack and Loma, Colorado,
and 1.5 miles east of Colorado State
Highway 139. CAM is proposing a new
portal and associated facilities to extract
low-sulfur coal from Federal Coal
Leases C–0125515 and C–0125516 and
from several potential new Federal
leases as well as a small amount of
private coal.
The proposed railroad line would
traverse approximately 9.5 miles of
Federal land, and include one crossing
of State Highway 139 and
approximately 5 miles of private land.
The EIS will analyze the potential
impacts associated with the
construction and operation of facilities
proposed in CAM’s Right-of-Way and
Land Use Applications, and other
potential impacts associated with the
Red Cliff Mine project. Citizens are
invited to help identify issues or
concerns and to provide input on the
proposed action. Alternatives will be
developed through the public
involvement process and analyzed in
the EIS.
A company affiliated with CAM is
currently mining approximately 280,000
tons of coal per year from the nearby
McClane Canyon Mine. CAM’s
production from the Red Cliff Mine
would be approximately 8 million tons
per year. CAM is proposing to load the
coal onto rail cars at the mine site and
ship it to coal consumers. CAM would
recover this coal by mining the Cameo
Seam using both room and pillar and
longwall mining techniques. As is
consistent with the goals of the 2001
National Energy Policy report and the
Energy Policy Act of 2005, this project
would help meet the existing and future
domestic market demand for low-sulfur
coal, thereby supporting clean coal
initiatives; and would encourage and
facilitate meeting national demands for
electricity from a domestic source of
energy.
The BLM will analyze the potential
impacts of the proposed action and no
action alternatives, as well as other
reasonable alternatives that could
include optional approaches for
activities proposed in the project area.
The alternatives will be further defined
as part of the scoping and planning
process. Consultation with tribal
governments will be accomplished as
part of the planning process. Section
106 consultations with the Colorado
State Historic Preservation Officer will
be conducted as required by the
National Historic Preservation Act. U. S.
