Long Dinsion Durci~ Permit M-91- i In tY.le reports I prepared of inspections made of the above re:Eerenced pits on October 5, 1994, I identified the absence of storm water management plans for both pits as compliance problems. I :Euri:her required that Kiowa County supply evidence by 12/4/94 of such plans or that they were not required for Stormwater Permits by thla Water Quality Control Division. This letter is to notify you that i:he absence of storm water management plans for Kiowa County aggregate pits is not a comgliance problem and that the county is to ignore the requirements made in my inspection reports that ev:iderrce of such be supplied by the specified date. Check of materials supplied by the WQCD in regard to Storm Water Pe3_-mit:s finds that counties with less than 100,000 population are, for tY.le moment, exempt from state requirements to have storm water permits for their gravel mining operations. I believe Kiowa County qu<rlif'ies as having less than 100,000 population and is therefore exempt:. I apologize for any inconvenience that my reports may have caused in this regard. If you have any questions on the above, please contact me. Sincez•ely, ~f curu_~ C~~~ct~ James C. Stevens Sr. Environmental Protection Specialist I~~~~ DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES 9 4 D1012 4
