Everist, Inc., respectfully submits information that the Corrective Action required in the July <br />9, 2014, inspection report of the Star Water Resource (M- 1977 -522) has been completed. <br />The Corrective Action requested in the inspection report was to implement the approved weed <br />control plan, including controlling the overgrowth of weeds that were seen on site at the time of <br />the inspection. The Corrective Action due date is 09/30/2014. <br />Corrective Action - The site was mowed throughout the summer to cut back the overgrowth of <br />weeds. Please see the attached photographs showing the better maintenance of the site. <br />Corrective Action - L.G. Everist hired Western States Reclamation to maintain and revegetate <br />areas of the site (silt fence, till, drill, and hydro -mulch at 20001b /acre). The seeding of the site <br />with an approved native grass seed mix will better establish beneficial vegetation and reduce <br />noxious weeds. The cost of the maintenance and seeding was around $10,000. <br />Corrective Action - L.G. Everist is implementing an approved weed control plan at Star. A <br />copy of the weed control plan is attached. The plan was first approved at our Firestone site. <br />This Weed Control Plan is incorporated into all of L.G. Everist's mine sites in Weld County. <br />Corrective Action - Please note that the cost of Weed Control is accounted for in the <br />Reclamation Costs and approved Financial Warranty for the Star Water Resource. <br />If you have any questions, feel free to call Lynn Mayer Shults at 303 - 286 -2247, or email me at <br />Imshults @lgeverist.com. <br />Sincerely, <br />Lyn Mayer Shult <br />Regulatory Manager <br />cc: LGE, file <br />Environment, Inc. <br />STAR- DRMS- CorrectiveAction Ur-to ES- 092414.docx <br />RECEIVED <br />SEP 2 9 2014 <br />D/WS101V OF 6EC <br />MI1vjjVd ND ON <br />
