Hickenlooper, Governor | Mike King, Executive Director | Virginia Brannon, Director <br />May 23, 2016 <br />Russell Larsen <br />Elam Construction, Inc. <br />556 Struthers Ave <br />Grand Junction, CO 81501-3826 <br /> <br />RE: Gehrman Pit, Permit No. M-2009-078, Corrective Action 60-Day Extension Request <br />Approval-3 <br />Dear Mr. Larsen: <br />The Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety (Division) inspected the above mentioned site on <br />September 9, 2015. Availability of records was cited as problem. Corrective actions require the <br />operator to demonstrate that the operation is in compliance with the Office of State Engineer (OSE). <br />This could be achieved by providing the Division with a valid gravel pit well permit that meets the <br />approved reclamation plan requirements. The initial corrective action due date was November 17, <br />2015. Elam has been diligently working to resolve this problem. The previous permit was deemed <br />no longer valid and a new permit was required. The application has been received by the Colorado <br />Division of Water Resources and is in process. On May 20, 2016 a third formal request for a 60 day <br />extension was received from Jon Muller. The Division approving the 60-day extension request. <br />To avoid potential future enforcement actions for non-compliance with State Statutes, Rules and <br />Regulations, and/or conditions specified in your permit for this site, you must submit compliance <br />documentation with the corrective actions specified by Friday, July 22, 2016. <br />If you require additional information, or have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. <br />Amy Yeldell at the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, 1313 Sherman St., Room 215, <br />Denver, CO 80203. Direct contact can be made by phone at 970-254-8511 or via email at <br />amy.yeldell@ state.co.us <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> Amy Yeldell <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Department of Natural Resources <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br />Phone: (970) 254-8511 <br /> <br />Ec: Russ Means, Senior EPS / Field Office Supervisor, Grand Junction DRMS <br /> Jon Muller, Environmental Compliance Coordinator, Elam Construction, Inc.
