As we discussed by telephone on 4-12-05, Lafage is <br />submitting this letter in response to the items noted as potential problems that required corrective <br />action. <br />~~ _ 1_ .1'lte.ident~egtion sign at the mine entrance doPS no! show thgl a permit wqs issued.by.the. <br />Colorado Wined Land Reclamation IIoard and it does not show Ihe'permil number. ~~~ <br />A sign that shows MLRB Permit Ito. M-1997-087 has been posted at the pit. <br />2. There is not enough salvaged topsoil to complete reclamation on a sign cant portion bf <br />the affected area. <br />As observed during rho inspection, the majority of the area disturbed by mining has had <br />the topsoil replaced. Lafarge estimates that approximately 6 acres of disturbed area <br />remain that have not been covered with topsoil. The amount of topsoil required to cover <br />this azea at a thickness of 4" is 3226 yards of soil. There are two remaining stockpiles of <br />salvaged topsoil remaining on the property. The amount of material remaining in these <br />stockpiles is estimated at 3800 cubic yards. Lafarge believes that adequate topsoil has <br />bean salvaged to provide an adequate plant growth medium for the remaining disturbed <br />areas. Attached are photos of the two remaining stockpiles of topsoil. <br />We trust these responses adequately address the concerns noted in the inspection report. If you <br />have any questions regarding the Harahan Pit, or ifyou would like to observe the topsoil <br />stockpiles, please do not hesitate to contact me at 303-657-4118 at your earliest convenience. <br />Thank you. <br />Sincere! , <br />/~r <br />Phillipe/ <br />Land and Lease Specialist <br />Cc: Rusty Cochran - Lafarse <br />Western U.S. Region . <br />70770 Church Ranch Way, Suite 200, Wesuninster, Co 80021 <br />Office: (303) 65>-a000 <br />WeD: wvnrv.lafargenorthamerica.wm <br />~:•.': <br />..,i~:. <br />^, <br />:' ~ ;; <br />• ,,,;~ <br />• ..~A <br />,, ,,: <br />°~ <br />•~.: <br />,,, <br />.; <br />~.; <br />. ,t„ <br />., , <br />A.
