of eroded Precambrian Pikes Peak granite. In the more level valley bottoms that are less <br /> subject to erosion,the mineral constituents of the granite can break down to make <br /> productive soils. The economic use of the area, prior to mining was limited to stock <br /> gazing, and as more people have immigrated to Colorado, additional uses now include <br /> home sites, recreation, and businesses. . <br /> (b) The permit area has been a gravel pit for over 60 years and at least 20 years prior to <br /> Colorado enacting the current reclamation laws. Thus,the pit itself is a historic relic. <br /> There are no current historic buildings or permanent structures on the site, and no <br /> structures within 200 feet of the permit area. <br /> ( c) The permit area is located on the top of a mountain in which the center has been partially <br /> cut away. There are no streams, springs, lakes, stock water ponds, ditches, or reservoirs, <br /> within the permit area, and none nearby that would receive any increased drainage caused <br /> directly by mining from within the affected area. There is no regularly defined aquifer <br /> in the general area, and subsurface waters are limited to and directed by cracks and <br /> fractures within the granite. <br /> (d) The operation has historically had no significant impact on wildlife over its last 60 years <br /> of operation, and future operation is expected to have no greater impact. The use by <br /> larger foraging animals in the general area is anticipated to remain generally unchanged <br /> from routes used prior, and will cause little to no change to animals that burrow or roost <br /> in the immediate area. Wildlife anticipated to be in the general area includes species of <br /> large mammals: mule deer, elk; small mammals: rodents, raccoon, cottontail rabbit, <br /> skunk, fox, coyote and ground squirrels; and various resident and seasonal birds <br /> including songbirds, raptors and other birds: mountain chickadee,junco, raven, mountain <br /> jays, hawks, flicker, magpie, hummingbirds, and owls. The permit is not a 110(d). <br />
