The need for temporary <br /> cessation is due to project locations. It was not feasible for Walsenburg Sand & Gravel to <br /> pull material from the WSG-Hribar mine site for the last several years due to the distance <br /> required to transport material.We are now starting projects located near this site which <br /> will be a more practical distance to transport material at this time. Our plan is to reopen <br /> the mining within the next 3 to 6 months to accommodate new projects. <br /> Part of the original portion of the site has been reclaimed but will need to be reseeded. Our <br /> plan is to reseed winter wheat before October.We remain committed to our obligations <br /> under the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Act and the approved reclamation plan <br /> associated with our permit.We understand that this second period of temporary cessation <br /> is the final allowance before reinitiation of mining or commencing final reclamation, <br /> according to the Colorado Division of Reclamation,Mining and Safety. <br /> We are committed to providing any further information or documentation necessary for <br /> your review of this request.We appreciate your continued understanding and guidance. <br /> Sine• ely, <br /> Gary Vezzani <br /> President <br />
