Introduction <br /> The Cheyenne County State Land Board Pit is located approximately 13 miles north of <br /> Cheyenne Wells, CO in Cheyenne County at an elevation of 4340 feet. The Cheyenne County <br /> State Land Board Pit is designed to be used as sand and gravel source for Colorado Project No. <br /> NHPP3851-018/23515; therefore, this application is for a Special Operations 111 reclamation <br /> permit. The permit boundary is shown on the Existing Conditions Map. Prior to mining, the site <br /> was used for rangeland and cattle grazing and thus will be reclaimed as such. The depth of <br /> excavation will be approximately 15 feet. Topsoil is expected to range from 0-3 inches. <br /> The site is bordered by rangeland to the north, south, west, and east. The General Location Map <br /> in Exhibit A details the location of the Cheyenne County State Land Board Pit. The surface and <br /> mineral rights are owned by the Colorado State Land Board. A lease to mine and sell the gravel <br /> resource is secured with A&S Construction Co. The permit area will include 30.0 acres. <br />
