PLAN OF OPERATION CLOSED AND FINANCIAL GUARANTEE
RELEASED
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Winnemucca Field Office announces the
closing of a plan of operations and return of a financial guarantee for
Chemstars’ Cosgrave Project. The project proposed a limestone quarry site in
Horseshoe Canyon, located in the East Range in northeastern Pershing County.
Exploration activities were performed during the early 1990s, but a quarry was
never developed. After the completion of exploration activities all constructed
roads and drill pads were reclaimed and seeded. A recent inspection indicated
vegetation has established itself on the reclaimed disturbances.
Accordingly, the BLM proposes to close the plan of operations and return
Chemstar’s bond. The BLM will accept comments regarding the closing of the plan
of operations and return of the financial guarantee until June 1, 2005. A copy
of the previously approved plan of operations is available for review at the BLM
Winnemucca Field Office. Further information is available by contacting Fred
Holzel at the Winnemucca Field Office (775) 623-1528.
