Our house is <br />approximately one mile from the proposed quarry site. <br />We object to approval of DRMS Permit Application No. M2017-049. <br />In general, the permit application describes an operation that is poorly conceived, <br />insufficiently documented and inappropriate for the described area. <br />The application jeopardizes the water resources of local residents, fails to protect <br />critical wildlife habitat, violates the easement rights of several property owners <br />along Little Turkey Creek Road and includes an inadequate "reclamation" plan. <br />We request that both the Pre -hearing Conference and MLRB Hearing be <br />conducted in Colorado Springs. <br />We strongly urge the CDRMS Board to deny the Transmit Mix application for <br />permit M-2017-049. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />6ifl, + &W 5A 60� <br />Anne and Tom Fellows <br />
