RECEIVED <br /> December 12, 2017 DEC 18 2017 <br /> DIVISION OF�;7CLAMATION <br /> Ms. Amy Eschberger MINING ANbSAFETY <br /> Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br /> 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br /> Denver, CO 80203 <br /> Ms. Eschberger, <br /> n ed citizen of E1 Paso County, Colorado, I HIGHLY and OVERWHELMING <br /> OBJECT to ransit Mix Concrete Company's (TM's) application M2017-049 to <br /> t a quarry on Hitch Rack Ranch. <br /> THANKS TO THE COLORADO SPRINGS MEDIA OUTLETS FOR BRINGING TO <br /> THE PUBLIC'S ATTENTION THIS UNNECESSARY, LIFE ALTERING, AND <br /> DRASTICALLY CONSEQUENTIAL HEAVY-HANDED ATTEMPT OF BIG BUSINESS <br /> (TRANSIT MIX CONCRETE CO) TO FURTHER DISREGARD OUR COMMUNITY'S <br /> GREATEST ASSETS OF PEOPLE, LAND, WATER, MILITARY ACCESS, AND <br /> WILDLIFE. <br /> WHY APPROVE DETRRvIENTS TO MORTANT ASSETS IN OUR COMMUNITY? <br /> ISN'T THE HIGHLY VISIBLE, EYE-SORE MOUNTAIN SCAR IN THE MIDDLE OF <br /> OUR CITY ENOUGH ?!?!? <br /> OUR COMMUNITYwillpay too large of price forTM's localendeavors. <br /> It's plain to see that the application fails to protect water resources, wildlife habitat and <br /> the easement rights of several property owners along Little Turkey Creek Road. <br /> Additionally, the CDRMS /MLRB should take into consideration the further <br /> consequence of the traffic congestion that Fort Carson /military and the community will <br /> experience due to the expansion of TVs trucks traversing HWY 115. <br /> Iurge the Mine Land Reclamation Board (MLRB) to DENYTM's application M2017- <br /> 049, and help prevent any future allowance of TM to get its way in OUR <br /> COMMUNITY. <br /> I request that both the Pre-hearing Conference and MLRB Hearing be conducted in <br /> OUR COMMUNITY of Colorado Springs in order to enhance proper community input, <br /> oversight, and media coverage. <br /> Let's do the right thing for OUR COMMUNITY and NOT APPROVE an application that <br /> would allow for a business to victimize OUR COMMUNTTYASSETS. <br />
