PERMIT#:M-1979-045 <br /> INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: ECS <br /> INSPECTION DATE: February 14,2019 <br /> OBSERVATIONS <br /> The Church Pit was inspected by Eric Scott with the Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety (DRMS) as part <br /> of the routine monitoring inspection program. The site was last inspected in January of 2014. Mr. Jim Weltie <br /> with Lakewood Brick and Tile, and Mr. Steven O'Brian with Environment Inc. were present for the inspection. <br /> The site is currently permitted for 75.74 acres, and the site identification sign (Photo 1) and boundary markers <br /> were present as required by Rule 3.1.12. The Church Pit is mined for sand, gravel and clay. Lakewood Brick <br /> and Tile operates the clay extraction from the site, and Bestway Concrete extracts the sand and gravel from <br /> the Church Pit, in addition to the adjacent Rocky Flats Pit. An agreement between Bestway and Lakewood <br /> Brick exists to allow the joint operations currently taking place at the site. <br /> Two issues were noted during this inspection that will need to be corrected by the operator: <br /> 1) The presence of refuse/trash such as old tires, scrap steel, stained soils, and general trash. These <br /> items will need to be removed from the site and properly disposed of by the corrective action date of <br /> April 30 as noted on the first page of this report. <br /> 2) The presence of impounded runoff/precipitation in the clay pit (Photo 2). As detailed on the first page <br /> of this report, any impounded runoff/precipitation captured by the clay pit will need to be discharged <br /> within 72 hours. <br /> No other issues were observed during this inspection. <br /> Inspection Contact Address <br /> Jim Weltie <br /> The Lakewood Brick and Tile Company <br /> 1325 Jay St <br /> Denver,CO 80215 <br /> Page 2 of 4 <br />
