~ III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII • <br />999 <br />Mount, Carl <br />From: Fowler.Sarah ®epamail.epa.gov <br />Sent: Thursday, August 31, 2000 3:32 PM <br />To: carl.mount~state.co.us <br />Cc: Oconnor. Darcy®epamail.epa.gov <br />Subject: LG Everest violation <br />Carl, This message is to formally inform you of disposal actions taken by LG <br />Everest Gravel Mining Operation on the Maryland Creek Ranch, several miles north <br />of Silverthorne, Colorado, along Colorado State Highway 9. On August 22, 2000, <br />a co-worker and I witnessed concrete trucks being washed and wet concrete waste <br />being disposed of (by a front loader) into the gravel piUlake just north of the <br />building site (see photographs provided). We revisited the site in the <br />afternoon with the Corps of Engineers, who have issued a 404 permit for the <br />site, and took more pictures of the waste disposal site. As you know, a major <br />amount of fill material containing dirt, asphalt, and concrete rubble, is being <br />brought onto the site and disposed of into this lake. We are very concerned <br />that pollutants are being introduced into this waterbody without the appropriate <br />permits. <br />Should you have any questions concerning these comments, please call me or <br />respond to this email. Thank you for your time on this matter. <br />P.S. Darcy Oconner is in our 402 Enforcement Section at EPA Region 8. <br />
