PERMIT #: M-2018-055 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: SJM <br />INSPECTION DATE: February 13, 2019 <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This was a pre-operation inspection conducted by the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (Division) in <br />response to the Construction Material Regular 112 Operation Reclamation permit application submitted by <br />Eagle Rocks Aggregate, Inc. Chris Fedrizzi, representing the applicant, was present during the inspection. <br />Photographs taken at the site during this inspection are included at the end of this report. <br />The Tower Pit Road Pit is located 1 miles east of Gypsum and will be accessed from HWY 6 and the Airport <br />Road. <br />The appropriate public notice sign was in place. <br />The current site use is Rangeland. The post mining land use will be 22 acres of Industrial Commercial and 15 <br />acres of Rangeland. The permit area will include 36.7 acres, of which 22 acres are expected to be mined. The <br />unmined acreage will serve as buffer zones and topsoil/overburden stockpile area. It is expected that <br />sufficient quantities of overburden material will be available on site for reclamation, and that enough topsoil <br />will be salvaged in order to be distributed over the disturbed areas during reclamation at a depth of no less <br />than 3 inches. The mined aggregate materials will be processed on site. The mine plan does not plan on <br />encountering groundwater. <br />This inspection confirmed that the site conditions were accurately portrayed in the application package <br />submitted by Eagle Rocks Aggregate, Inc. <br />The Division has calculated an adequate financial warranty estimate (enclosed) for this site. <br />Responses to this inspection report should be directed to Stephanie Mitchell at the Division of Reclamation, <br />Mining and Safety, Grand Junction Field Office, 101 South 3rd Street, Room 301, Grand Junction, Colorado <br />81501, phone number (970) 242-5025. <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
