Acme Brick Company "I <br /> AcmE <br /> Castle Rock, Colorado 41IN BR c,, I# IEIBP <br /> Texas <br /> z ite 1W Quarries <br /> January 5, 2017 <br /> CERTIFIED MAIL—RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED <br /> Mr. Dan Avery—AICP/Chief Planner <br /> 100 Third Street <br /> Castle Rock, Colorado 80104 <br /> Re: Acme Brick Company— Denver Brick Company <br /> Request for an amendment of an approved Use by Special Review permit <br /> Dear Mr. Avery: <br /> Denver Brick Company would like to request an amendment to the Use by Special <br /> Review Permit in the A-1 district to allow a 15-year window for mining activity to continue <br /> under the proposed amendment. <br /> The clay at the Stevens mine is an integral part of the production of red brick. Currently <br /> approximately 55% of the production is red brick. Of that production approximately 45% <br /> of the red mix is the Stevens clay. <br /> At this time Denver Brick does not have alternate red clay to replace the Stevens <br /> clay. All other permits are in place (ie. Mining permit, storm water discharge permit, <br /> APEN). <br /> Air, water and noise impacts would continue to be minimal as described in the current <br /> permit. As the mining process moves to the west reclamation will follow the excavation <br /> from east to west. <br /> Sincerely; <br /> Robert Tibbetts <br /> Mining, Environmental, QC Supervisor & Contract Administrator <br /> CC: Steve Helzer <br /> Lynn Burchfield <br />
