The site is located in along Highway 115 in Southern El Paso County. <br /> We will be taking precautions at our blasting operations, and intend to prevent damage to your structure by <br /> following restrictions established by the mining permit and state and federal agencies. We are offering, in good <br /> faith,a pre-blast survey to every resident and owner of a structure within the pre-blast survey radius of one-half mile <br /> from the proposed disturbance boundaries for this mine permit. The pre-blast survey will record and document the <br /> physical condition of your structure prior to any blasting. The pre-blast surveyor will look at each room in your <br /> home as well as each outside wall and document the current condition using one or more of the following: a camera, <br /> sketches, drawings, narrative descriptions or a combination of methods. If your water supply is a well or spring, a <br /> water sample will be taken and an analysis of the untreated water will be included with the survey.The surveyor will <br /> also measure the water level in the well and the well production rate if the well can be accessed. <br /> Pre-blast survey request and waiver forms are included with this letter. If you would like to have a pre-blast survey <br /> performed at no cost to you, please complete the "request" section of the form. If you do not want a pre-blast <br /> survey, please fill out the "waiver" section of the form. A stamped addressed envelope is included for your <br /> convenience. If we do not receive the form back from you before we will assume that you have declined a <br /> pre-blast survey. <br /> A copy of the completed pre-blast survey will be sent to the Colorado Department of Reclamation, Mining, and <br /> Safety (DRMS) for their records. Transit Mix Concrete Co. will keep a copy, and the structure owner will be <br /> provided a copy. If you disagree with any results determined by the survey,you should send a written explanation <br /> detailing the points of disagreement to DBMS and Transit Mix Concrete Co. Your letter explaining the <br /> disagreement will be made a part of the pre-blast survey file. <br /> If you expand or renovate your structure, another survey of the renovations/additions will be performed at your <br /> request. To request a survey of the addition or renovation, contact the DRMS at (303) 866-3567 or send a written <br /> request to Transit Mix Concrete Co. Your request should include your name, address and phone number with a <br /> short description of why you want an up-dated pre-blast survey. <br /> If you have any questions about the blasting,please contact me at(719)475-0700. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Enclosure <br />
