RE: DRMS Permit M-1988-048, Carr Gravel Resource-Acreage Release Request
Dear Mr. Scott:
L.G. Everist, Inc. respectfully submits an Acreage Release Request for the Carr Gravel Resource, DRMS
Permit M-1988-048. L.G. Everist is requesting acreage release of fully reclaimed areas of the site, which
are generally located in the north half of the site, from the northern boundary of the entire permit area,
down to the southern boundary of the"Transload Area"for a total of 618 acres.
The following paragraphs give more details on the areas that are reclaimed.
Carr Gravel Resource"Transload Area" (N 1/2 Section 35,T11N R67W, 6th PM,Weld County)
In 2011, L.G. Everist amended the Carr Gravel Resource DRMS permit to change the reclamation plan
on 303 acres from a post mining land use of rangeland to transload area. The"Transload Area" included
a transload area (280 acres) located in the north half of Section 35 and by the existing railroad tracks. It
also included a separate equipment storage area (9.75 acres) and haul and access roads (13.25 acres)
located generally in Section 27 for post-mining use and access.
As per our discussion during your informal visit to the site in October, L.G. Everist has completed the
reclamation in the"Transload Area"as per the approved reclamation plan. We have removed the
remaining "mining" equipment, and removed the temporary pond located in the northeast section of the
area. So the"Transload Area" is fully reclaimed as the approved reclamation plan. L.G. Everist
respectfully requests release of the 303 acres.
Carr Gravel Resource"Van Loo" area (E 112 E 1/2 Sec 27,T11N, R67W, 6th PM,Weld County)
In 2000, L.G. Everist amended the Carr Gravel Resource DRMS Permit to add 110 acres of the"Van
Loo" property into the mining and reclamation plans. As mentioned above, in 2011, L.G. Everist
amended the DRMS Permit to change the reclamation plan on part of the entire site from a post mining
land use of rangeland to transload area, and 20 acres of the"Transload Area" are within the"Van Loo"
area. Those"transload areas" are the north-south haul road (13.25 acres) along the east side of"Van
Loo" and an equipment storage area (9.75 acres) in the south part of the"Van Loo" area. The"Transload
Areas" are fully reclaimed, and the remaining 90 acres of the"Van Loo" area have been fully reclaimed
for years as rangeland, all as per the reclamation plan. L.G. Everist respectfully requests release of the
entire 110 acres.
Carr Gravel Resource "Thomas" area (W 112 Section 26 T11 N, R67W,6th PM,Weld County)
The"Thomas" property is the only property within the Carr Gravel Resource that L.G. Everist does not
own. L.G. Everist has had a lease with the Thomas family throughout the life of the permit. The property
has been mined and reclaimed. The majority of the property has been reclaimed and sustainably
vegetated for quite a few years. This past year, L.G. Everist reclaimed the southern section of the
