• Garbage dumped on our properties. <br />Couches <br />TV's <br />o Old Computers <br />o All kinds of junk <br />• Truck drivers who have gotten mad and stopped their trucks because a <br />young child was riding a horse on the "private road" (that home owners <br />owned). The truck driver got out of his truck and yelled at him. We have <br />this on video. <br />• Truck drivers that have dumped their kid's dirty diapers onto our properties <br />• Dead cats thrown from trucks on to neighbor's properties. <br />• Trespassing on neighbor's properties. <br />• SLAPP lawsuits against several home owners that have complained. <br />o One because the camp ground owner was flooded out and <br />complained. Come to find out the quarry did not do a proper <br />hydrology study. Even after that work the area flooded for years as <br />the EPA or Core of Engineers or anyone did nothing. <br />The overall experience of having a quarry next to your house has been awful and still <br />continues every day. We have dust because according to the quarry etc... they can dump 15 <br />to 25% of their dirt into the area. Fremont County will not stop the speeding trucks and <br />will not patrol or help in any way. The area has no protection from the EPA or any other <br />agency in Colorado as they really don't want to get involved. A quarry will destroy these <br />folks homes and lives. <br />At this point in time we have 6 or more quarries around the HW 1115 corridor. The traffic <br />from these trucks has grown and become dangerous. They speed from 70 to 80 mph on a <br />road tagged at 60mph. They ruin everyone's wind shields and we expect to replace them <br />close to once a year. HW 115 has not been engineered to handle this traffic and this can be <br />seen by how torn up the road is. In fact, quarry trucks have been asked to not use the left <br />lanes that exist since they are in such bad repair. The sad part of this is that these roads <br />have all been rebuilt in the last 5 to 10 vears. <br />Beyond that we have an environmental issue in the area. The air is always dusty and <br />cloudy and there is no way to change this. The idea that a new quarry on the EL Paso side <br />is sad indeed. What an ugly eye sore for an area that already has so many. <br />2 <br />
