Everist, Inc. respectfully requests a Technical Revision to the reclamation plan for the Fort Lupton <br />Sand and Gravel Mine, DRMS Permit # M-1999-120. We have included the Request for Technical <br />Revision (TR) Cover Sheet (form) and Check #1846 for $216.00 to cover the Technical Revision fee. <br />As we noted in our 2012 amendment, there could be future changes to the reclamation plan due to <br />changes with oil and gas facilities. For this Technical Revision, we are revising the reclamation plan <br />slightly, making minor changes to three reservoirs, and connecting two of them. <br />Meadows North and Meadows South will now be connected as Meadows Lake. <br />We are making minor changes to the reclamation configuration of Meadows North and Meadows South. <br />The divider between Meadows North and South has been removed, and the two reservoirs are now one, <br />to be called Meadows Lake. This change has come about due to the 2013 flood, which washed out part <br />of the divider between the two lakes. Taking the divider out is an interior change to the reservoirs and <br />does not affect the single slurry wall liner which was constructed around the outside of both lakes. <br />L.G. Everist worked together with Foundation Energy and Encana Energy, which each had one gas well <br />along the divider in Meadows North and South. Foundation Energy and Encana Energy capped and <br />removed their gas wells, Foundation Energy Gas Well/Pump Unit - Amaco-Ewing #1 and Encana Energy <br />Gas Well - Harry Ewing #1. The corresponding gathering lines and facilities were also removed and/or <br />re-routed. This allowed for the divider to be removed permanently - all that remains is a small peninsula <br />on the east side where some oil and gas facility structures are still located. <br />Here are the updated acreages for Meadows Lake: <br />Area Name <br />Meadows North (old) <br />Meadows South (old) <br />Total MN & MS <br />Meadows Lake (new) <br />(same total acres) <br />Total <br />Acres <br />Lake Area <br />42.71 <br />Reveg. <br />Area <br />Road <br />2.65 <br />Setbacks <br />Undisturbed <br />3.40 <br />60.09 <br />11.33 <br />27.35 <br />19.18 <br />5.02 <br />1.35 <br />1.80 <br />87.44 <br />61.89 <br />16.35 <br />4.00 <br />5.20 <br />87.44 <br />63.00 <br />15.49 <br />3.75 <br />5.20 <br />FL-DRMS-TR-ReclamationChanges-ML&MW-Sep20l 5.docx <br />✓ Compliance <br />✓ NO Violations <br />t�M <br />
