In 2011, the Schmidts began excavating and leveling sites on the property <br /> to have sites for a residence, an earth-sheltered workshop/storage building, and outdoor parking and <br /> storage with a connecting road. Because they had significant excess material (soil and borrow(earth)), <br /> he used that for his landscaping business and to people needing fill and soil. A complaint was filed with <br /> CDRMS and he was required to obtain a mining and reclamation permit from the state, as well as county <br /> approval, including the CUP approved by the reference letter. He has done enough excavation and site <br /> preparation that he no longer needs to remove material from the property. The last CDRMS inspection <br /> determined that the reclamation permit can be terminated provided that the County will verify that it will <br /> continue to oversee the work remaining to prepare the site, and of course, install/erect buildings and <br /> structures. <br /> The Schmidts have asked me to coordinate this, and request the verification from the County, then <br /> request termination of the state permit. Therefore, I am requesting, either by letter (sent by email as PDF <br /> is fine) or by email message that the conditions in the referenced letter are still valid and enforced by the <br /> County. <br /> Please call or email me with any questions. Thank you for your assistance! <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Nathan A. Barton, CE, PE, DEE, Comptroller, <br /> WASTELINE, INC. (Project Engineer) <br />
