RE: Corrective Action Report—for process water
Site: DRMS Permit M-1996-052, Firestone Gravel Resource
Dear Mr. Scott:
L.G. Everist, Incorporated (L.G. Everist or LGE), as Permittee/Operator respectfully submits this Corrective Action
Report for the Firestone Gravel Resource, DRMS Permit# M-1996-052. This Report is pertaining to the possible
problem noted on process water in Firestone's Inspection Report dated 10/22/2018. The due date for the process
water Corrective Action is 11/22/2018.
On the day of the inspection, it was noted in the report that"process water/sediment was observed leaving the
site along the western permit boundary near the plant area..."
The water which was seen in the road-side ditch on the day of the inspection was water that had been pumped
from the settling pond in the southwest corner of the site, and was being pumped to the fresh water pond in the
north-central part of the site. There had been a minor back-up in the on-site ditches between the two ponds, so
some of the water filtered over to the road-side ditch. This was noticed almost immediately and the water transfer
was shut off. The day of the inspection, was the day after this occurred, and there was some water still sitting in
the road-side ditch. The remaining water was cleaned up later that day and then the ditch was bladed smooth.
The water was only in the road-side ditch for about 100 feet in the middle of the western perimeter and that ditch
dead-ends at the northwest corner of our site, so the water did not have any chance of traveling to other areas.
Please see the attached photos showing the ditch after the water was pumped back into the site and the ditch
was cleaned up, graded, and smoothed out.
If you have any questions or need additional information pertaining to the process water cleanup, feel free to
contact me at 303-286-2247 or [e-mail]. (Please note: the corrective action pertaining to the
permitting revisions will be submitted separately prior to their due date of 01/20/2019.)
Sincerely
