Comment/Objection Narrative* <br /> We are residents of Dos Rios Neighborhood which is right across the street from proposed Sand&Gravel Mine <br /> to be operated by Raptor Mining, under the name Two Rivers Sand,Gravel and Reservoir Project. <br /> We are pleading with you not to allow this mine/reclamation site to be set up in our backyards.The proposed <br /> location is 54th Street Rd and Rd 396.This location detrimental to our neighborhood for many reasons;our <br /> health,our safety,our property values and our peace&tranquility! <br /> My family just moved from Denver to the Dos Rios neighborhood because of my severe asthma.The dust that <br /> would come from this mine/reclamation operation would make it impossible for me to live here anymore. Moving <br /> again would be financially devastating for our family. <br /> The truck traffic that would be coming and going from this mine/reclamation site would not only be a nuisance <br /> but it would be extremely dangerous for us due to 54th St. Rd being a narrow,winding road with no shoulder. <br /> Please note,54th St Rd is the only access we have into our neighborhood. <br /> My neighbors and my family truly value the peace and quiet of our Dos Rios neighborhood.Some.of the <br /> residents in this area have been here for 20 years and none of.us deserve a mine to be put in their backyards. <br /> We pay substantial amount of property tax to live in this peaceful area and the fact that you would even <br /> consider allowing this noisy,dusty,safety hazard operation to move in next door to us is truly appalling!!! <br /> These is also the issue of the Bald Eagle nesting area and general wildlife along the rivers.This <br /> mine/reclamation site would endanger/displace many of those animals. <br /> Weld County is huge and this mining/reclamation operation could be set up anywhere else that isn't right next <br /> to a neighborhood! <br /> You would have heard from many of the residents.of Dos.Rios earlier if we had been properly notified about this <br /> proposed Mining operation.Signs were not posted anywhere that we could see them from 54th Street Rd.(The <br /> only street we use to access our neighborhood).One of the neighbors just happened to be walking their dog on <br /> Rd 396 last week and saw the signs about the permit request.The proper way to notify us would have been to <br /> send everyone in our neighborhood a letter and/or post the notices at the entrances to our neighborhood.The <br /> way this was done feels sneaky and underhanded,as if they didn't want us to know until it was.too late for us to <br /> have any say in the matter. <br /> Please help the residents of the Dos Rios neighborhood. <br /> Thank you for your time! <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Mark&Shellie Troutini <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M1977999, M1999777UG or C1981201. <br /> M2022013 <br /> Permitting Action Type <br /> Select revision type or leave blank if comment pertains to a new permit application or NOI <br /> Permit Type <br /> Reclamation <br /> County* <br /> Weld County <br /> Enter one county only <br /> Site Name <br /> .
