Id. § 34-32.5-115(4), (4)(c) & (4)(d). Here, no component of the proposed Peak Ranch Resource or Maryland Creek Ranch is contrary to the applicable laws or regulations of this state or the United States, or any federal, state or local permits, licenses or approvals, including the Summit County ordinance requiring a county mining permit or Conditional Use Permit for mining activities. Peak Materials has committed to obtain a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) from Summit County for Peak Ranch Resource and to obtain an updated CUP for Maryland Creek Ranch to allow that site to accept and process the materials from Peak Ranch Resource. Peak Materials attended a pre-application meeting with Summit County about both CUP applications and, in that meeting, the Summit County staff indicated that they wanted Peak Materials to first obtain the 112 Reclamation Permit before submitting the CUP applications. As required by the Code and requested by the County, the applicant will pursue a CUP for Peak Ranch Resource and a revised CUP for Maryland Creek Ranch following the approval of this 112 Reclamation Permit application. Consistent with its December 11,2020 response to Summit County's comments, Peak Materials will demonstrate that both operations will be compatible with the Lower Blue Master Plan in their respective CUP applications. Peak Materials acknowledges that CUP approvals for both Peak Ranch Resource and Maryland Creek Ranch will be required before any operations at Peak Ranch Resource can begin. The existing Summit County Conditional Use Permit for Maryland Creek Ranch places restrictions on the types of material that are allowed to be imported to that site. Speck the materials that will be imported to the existing Maryland Creek Ranch permit and identify the uses of the materials? The existing Summit County Conditional Use Permit for Maryland Creek Ranch provides, in part, that: "No raw materials may be imported onto the site, with the exception of materials necessary for the production of concrete and asphalt and concrete and asphalt materials to be recycled. Inert fill material, as defined by the Colorado Department of Health in their policy statement dated October 20, 1993, may be brought on to the property provided it is used for the u ose of constructing finished Lakeshore slopes and/or finished grades." rP p b p g Peak Ranch Resource will send sand and gravel to Maryland Creek Ranch. This material will be used to produce a variety of construction material products including, but not limited to, concrete and asphalt, as well as pit run, crushed stone, washed stone, road base, sand, and binder. Please be aware the processing of material, whether at Maryland Creek Ranch or another location, will be subject to the requirements of a Reclamation Permit as well as any requirements imposed by the local jurisdiction. The applicant is aware of this requirement as it relates to the proposed Peak Ranch Resource and Maryland Creek Ranch projects. In addition to updating the CUP for Maryland Creek Ranch, Peak Materials will be submitting a Technical Revision application to the DRMS for the Maryland Creek Ranch 112 Reclamation Permit. 3 G g Lr.icki and Associates,MIA',
