As you know Aggregate Industries WCR Inc(AI)has requested to delay the <br /> completion of this project with the Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety until <br /> 12/31/2018. <br /> This project on 104'h Avenue just east of the South Platte River has been ongoing for <br /> close to a decade now and should be completely phased out as scheduled no later than <br /> 6/30/2016. Since weeks go by with no activity at the mine, it would seem that added <br /> effort could accomplish this quite easily_ <br /> Until the past 6 months Al has utilized berms to minimize the visual impact, dust, and <br /> noise from this operation but now they have accumulated a plethora of diggers, <br /> machinery, vehicles, and out-buildings directly behind our property. Another 3 years of <br /> this unsightly display is completely unacceptable. Unless this can be camouflaged or <br /> removed I remain opposed to the extended delay in completion of the project. <br /> Furthermore, we appeal to you that as the project is completed it will show a re-vitalized <br /> landscape that is visually attractive to nearby homeowners, Adams County, the City of <br /> Thornton, and all those that pass-by on 1040' Avenue. Please-no chain link fencing, <br /> barbed wire, or clutter! <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> Keith and Shirl Sabin <br /> Cc: Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety <br /> 1313 Sherman St—Ste 215 <br /> Denver, Co 80203 <br /> e—•, <br />
