Comment/Objection Narrative* <br /> To the DRMS, <br /> It seems that there is finally an entrepreneurial private enterprise that has found an economic incentive to <br /> continue cleaning up the remaining tailings,slag,&waste piles in Lake County&Leadville. <br /> Within the town itself, it is documented that there are at least Six(6)Mine Waste Piles under CDPHE <br /> Institutional Controls located in the residential areas of Leadville(OL19). It is obvious that there are potential to <br /> significant risks to having these piles dotting Leadville's neighborhoods. <br /> If CJK milling is offering to remove this potentially hazardous material from the city and reclaim whatever value <br /> is left from the piles for profit-good for them and good for the current&future generations of Leadville! <br /> I am certain there are risks involved but based on the credibility of the people in support of this project;the <br /> BIGGEST risk is NOT taking one. If no action is taken,the industrial waste piles will continue to leach its metals <br /> and minerals into the rivers&water table forever. <br /> If we don't take advantage of this opportunity,when will the next one come? <br /> As a Lake County licensed business owner, land owner,and recreationist I support and strongly encourage the <br /> regulators to approve this project with whatever permits&approvals are required. <br /> Thank you! <br /> Elliot Hovey <br /> RB Minturn <br /> Permitting Action Comment/Objection is Regarding <br /> New Permit • Change to Existing Permit <br /> Permit Number* (?) <br /> Enter a valid permit number <br /> M1990057 <br /> Revision Type and Sequence <br /> Permit Amendment <br /> County* <br /> Colorado County where the proposed operation is located <br /> Lake <br /> Enter one county only <br /> Site Name <br /> Leadville Mill <br /> Perm ittee/Operator Name <br /> CJK Milling <br /> ADDITIONAL INFORMATION <br /> Are there supporting photos, maps, or documents you wish to upload? <br /> Yes • No <br /> By submitting this form electronically you agree to receive any/all follow up correspondence from the Division of <br /> Reclamation, Mining,and Safety at the email address you have provided. <br />
