The site is small 1 10 burrows, turquoise removal operation located with in the City Limits of <br />Cripple Creek. Operator was contacted but was unable to attend. Site is operated mostly during the summer <br />months. The permitted area covers pre-law disturbance that was operated by the City of Cripple Creek road <br />maintenance department. Due to a locked gate, property was accessed from the North West side using BLM <br />land. <br />The amount of affected acreage did not appear to change from the last inspection period. Permit sign and <br />boundary markers were properly posted. This operation mostly utilizes hand tools, very rarely is mechanized <br />equipment used. The existing warranty is more than adequate to cover this small disturbance associated with <br />the turquoise operation. The site is mostly mined as a Hobby operation by Mr. And Mrs. Burtis. Operation is in <br />compliance with the approved recalamtion plan. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: MR.
