Therefore, exposure of ground water <br />must not occur during or after mining operations. <br />® The applicant has not identified any proposed use of water at the permit site. If water will be used for any <br />purpose at this site, the applicant will need to document that the water was obtained from a legal source, or <br />the water was diverted in priority under a water right decreed for such industrial use. <br />COMMENTS: The application seeks to convert M- 2006 -042 from a 110(c) Limited Impact Construction Materials <br />Permit to a 112(c) Regular Construction Materials Permit. The application also seeks to add 17.9 acres to the <br />current 9.9 permitted acres, for a total permit area of 27.8 acres. <br />The primary commodities to be mined at the site are sand, gravel, and borrrow. The site is proposed to be <br />reclaimed to its current use of pastureland upon completion of mining operations. <br />If stormwater runoff is intercepted by this operation and is not diverted or captured in priority, it must be released to <br />the stream system within 72 hours, which may require a discharge permit from CDPHE -WQCD. Otherwise, the <br />operator will need to make replacements for evaporation. <br />The applicant may contact the State Engineer's Office with any questions. <br />Office of the State Engineer <br />1313 Sherman Street, Suite 818 • Denver, CO 80203 • Phone: 303 - 866 -3581 • Fax: 303 - 866 -3589 <br />www.watenstate.co.us <br />
