Regardless, progress is being made. Submitted with this corresp dente is an initial survey Doug orchestrated a survey conducted by a Registe ed Surveyor that defines the principal affected land relative to the property bo ndary. The measured area is divided in two parts: 1. Historic Quarry [3.37± cres], and 2. Quarry [8.94± Acres]. While the affected land escapes the property boundary approxima ely IS to 30 feet [less than (/10 of an acre], the entire affected land is locate i u on lands owned in whole or in part by Dous Bachli. A small portion of th access road leading to the site is leased from another operator which is permitte by him and is therefore not included in the measured areas. This is in part the problem with a boundary survey alone, in tha the pre-law affected land [not reaffected except for purposes of reclamation or extraction to perfect the same - as identified as an approved use in the original 11 permit] and 110 extraction related affected land, is occurring in irregular patte both within and without this survey area. While the survey did not extract this information, the resulting map under its present form is important in that it sug ests both the problem and the remedy for this operation, while assuring that the l nds affected can be reasonably interpreted to be under the 9.36 acres provid for in the original 110 permit. Since I was not involved or present at the time of the survey, I lat r determined some communication faults that exist with this product. As indicate previously, lack of visual references both on the ground and in the map, sufficie t to describe the operation intent in the previously approved permits has led in arge part to the preset state of confusion, and this consideration must and will be emedied. These maps are in fact tools for both the operator and the regula ing agencies necessary to not only assure compliance, but to allow the a traction and reclamation activities to occur in an orderly manner that can be pe 'odically and effectively communicated to others. It is critical if the present conf Sion is to be remedied, but more importantly to prevent recurrence of a simila problem in the future, that site measurements be linked to site features.
