Eric C. Scott <br /> Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br /> 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br /> Denver, Colorado 80203 <br /> Dear Mr. Scott: <br /> The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District (Corps) has reviewed your letter dated <br /> September 28, 2018 (received October 16, 2018) regarding the environmental review of the <br /> Construction Materials Reclamation Permit Amendment filed by the Weld County Public Works <br /> (Peters 313 Pit, Permit No. M- 018-045-AM01), in Weld County, Colorado. It is understood that <br /> the proposed surface mining and reclamation operation would be located at or near Section 26, <br /> Township 12N, Range 63W, 6th Principle Meridian. All affected lands will be reclaimed to <br /> support a rangeland post-mining land use. We offer the following comments for your <br /> consideration: <br /> Your plans should be coordinated with the state water quality office that has jurisdiction within <br /> the area where the project is located to ensure compliance with federal and state water quality <br /> standards and regulations mandated by the Clean Water Act and administered by the U.S. <br /> Environmental Protection Agency. Please coordinate with the Colorado Department of Public <br /> Health and Environment concerning state water quality programs. <br /> If you have not already done so, it is recommended you consult with the U.S. Fish and <br /> Wildlife Service and the Colorado Division of Wildlife regarding fish and wildlife resources. In <br /> addition, the Colorado State Historic Preservation Office should be contacted for information <br /> and recommendations on potential cultural resources in the project area. <br /> Since the proposed project does not appear to be located within Corps owned or operated <br /> lands, your plans should be submitted to the local floodplain administrator for review and <br /> approval prior to construction. It should be ensured that the proposed project is in compliance <br /> with the floodplain management criteria of Weld County and the State of Colorado. In addition, <br /> please coordinate with the following floodplain management office: <br /> Colorado Water Conservation Board <br /> Attention: Ms. Jamie Prochno <br /> 1313 Sherman Street, Room 721 <br /> Denver, Colorado 80203 <br /> Telephone: 303-866-3441 ext. 3215 <br /> Fax: 303-866-4474 <br /> Email: lamie.Prochno(a-)state.co.us <br />
