Therefore, exposure of <br /> ground water must not occur during or after mining operations. <br /> COMMENTS: The application seeks an amendment to add 12.15 acre to the currently permitted 20.1 <br /> acres, for a total permit area of 32.25 acres. The amendment is sought as a result of a resurvey to bring <br /> the existing pit inbounds for reclamation. <br /> The primary commodity mined at the site is gravel. The site is proposed to be reclaimed to its pre- <br /> mining land use of rangeland. <br /> No groundwater is anticipated to be exposed at the site, and no use of water was identified as either a <br /> part of mining operations or reclamation operations. If water is proposed to be used at the site for any <br /> purpose, the applicant will need to document that the water was obtained from a legal source, or <br /> diverted in priority under a water right decreed for such industrial use. <br /> The applicant may contact the State Engineer's Office with any questions. <br /> 1313 Sherman Street, Room 821, Denver, CO 80203 P 303.866.3581 F 555.555.5555 www.water.state.co.us <br />
