PERMIT #: M- 1979 -191 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: ECS <br />INSPECTION DATE: November 26, 2014 <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This inspection was conducted by Eric Scott of DRMS. On June 9, 2014 DRMS received an application for a <br />permit amendment (AM01) for the 3 -Bells 112c site from the permittee (Martin Marietta Materials — MMM). <br />This "pre -op" inspection for AM01 was conducted after an acreage release (AR01) of approximately 48 acres <br />of un -mined area was approved on November 4, 2014. The acreage release was submitted so that, when <br />approved, the proposed AM01 permit boundary would reflect the current site conditions. The pending <br />amendment, when approved, will change the post- mining land use to developed water storage, and resolve a <br />current boundary issue located on the northeast side of the northern (Ditullio) parcel and near the current <br />scale house. <br />All mining has been completed in the southern (Veldman) parcel of the permit area and reclamation as lined <br />water storage is underway (Photos 4 -6). MMM stated that the reclamation of this parcel will be completed in <br />the 2015 season. <br />Active mining is taking place in the northern (Ditullio) parcel at this time (Photos 1 -3). Excavation is taking <br />place near the plant area on the east side of the river, and the new conveyor to move material across the river <br />from west to east is under construction (Photo 3). The previous issue of stockpile location noted in the <br />inspection for AR01 has been resolved. No other issues were noted during this inspection. Although the <br />operator is under time pressures to complete the mining and reclamation in this area, they should continue to <br />be aware of all permitting and reclamation requirements, and the need to properly segregate topsoil from <br />overburden and maintain it properly until use in final reclamation. <br />Inspection Contact Address <br />Julie Mikulas <br />Martin Marietta Materials, Inc <br />2625 Redwing Dr., Suite 370 <br />Fort Collins, CO 80526 <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />
