'r <br />r <br />• <br /> <br />SED : 4 2000 <br />UIYIS~en of "dine[:'? and Geology <br />September 10, 2000 <br />RECE"~: ,~ <br />Mr. Carl Mount <br />State of Colorado <br />Division of Minerals & Geology <br />Dear Mr. Mount: <br />SEP 14 :^:) <br />Division of Minerals a :~ ';,clogy <br />This letter is in response to our telephone conversation of last week re- <br />garding Weld County pumping water from the mining operation cur- <br />- rently underway to the west of my property. I am enclosing a location <br />map of the County land and my property that adjoins it to the east. <br />The County began pumping in the spring, and my lakes continue to <br />drop to the lowest elevation they have ever been. This spring and <br />summer, the fish loss has been devastating, and I am extremely con- <br />cerned this loss will continue and increase if no corrective action is <br />taken. <br />My question is: Can the County continue drying up the underground <br />water flow without replacing our lake water. I would think at least <br />they should pump the water to my lake instead of the St. Vrain River. <br />Please advise me as to what can be done. Your immediate attention to <br />this matter will be greatly appreciated. <br />Sincerely, <br />~i~-~~ <br />John Roberts <br />4789 WCR 24 3/4 <br />Longmont, CO 80504 <br />303-898-6890 (Mobile) <br />303-702-1790 (Home) <br />
