The site is located <br />approximately 4 miles east of Kremmling, Colorado and the pit is situated on an old <br />alluvial terrace on the north side of the Colorado River. <br />The conversion application proposes to add 16.79 acres to the existing permitted acreage <br />of 9.30 for a new permitted area of 26.09 acres. The proposed extension starts at the <br />east boundary of the existing pit and proceeds approximately 1200 feet east staying on top <br />of the terrace. The extension is an uneven quadrilateral that is trapezoidal in shape <br />with the east side shorter than the west side and the north and south boundaries similar <br />in length. The existing land use is improved rangeland and the proposed post-mining land <br />use is rangeland. This extension will be a simple expansion of the existing mining plan <br />with 3H:1V post-mining slopes and a similar seed mix. <br />The only concern observed on site and not properly addressed in the application was the <br />existence of a power line along the southern boundary o£ the extension area. The line is <br />outside of the permit area but is within 200 feet of the proposed affected area. The <br />operator will need to obtain either a notarized damage agreement, an engineering <br />evaluation or a notarized letter on utility letterhead stating the mining and reclamation <br />activities will have no negative effect on their utility from the owner of the power line <br />prior to application approval. <br />No other problems were noted and this concluded the inspection. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: Jerry Carpenter <br />OPERATOR: Tri River.
