The Bite <br />is not currently being actively mined, but material ie still being removed from stockpiles <br />preeent. <br />1. The sign at the entrance to the site did not display the DMG permit number. This should <br />be remedied within 30 days, and proof sent to DMG. <br />2. The boundaries were very clearly marked with pink flags, and matched the compass <br />directions given on the map. All setbacks from the railroad tracks, property lines and Plum <br />Creek are being observed. There are no signs that asphalt processing has ever taken place on <br />site. <br />3. Topsoil is stored at the site and revegetated (with cheatgraes), however, there may not <br />be enough material left to complete reclamation. An estimate of how much topsoil ie needed <br />will be made during the bond estimate re-calculation. <br />4. Approximately 15 acres of the main pit has been disturbed, and a hole of about 2-3 acres <br />which moat be filled (according to the permit) is still preeent. The eloping on the main pit <br />is adequate - about 3:1 to 4:1 - however, the hole ie 8' to 10' deep and consists entirely <br />of highwalle. Debris ie preeent in the hole, and it moat be demonstrated that the materials <br />present are "inert" according to the Solid Waste definitions (CDPHE). If they are not, they <br />ve to be properly disposed of, and written proof that the Operator has done so must be <br />submitted to DMG. <br />5. The northern quarter of the permit area has never been disturbed, and could be released <br />as undisturbed area should the operator wish to apply for release of the area. <br />6. No reclamation work has been done ae yet. Topsoil needs to be spread, and revegetation <br />work begun soon, since wind erosion of the main pit ie a concern - the area is extremely <br />barren, and the surrounding vegetation ie healthy pasture (albeit short, due to a recent <br />fire). <br />7. It is believed that the Bite ie underbonded for the amount of area disturbed. The bond <br />will be refigured in the near future and a new cost estimate sent to the Operator. <br />I & E Contact Addreee <br />NAME Jim Sampson <br />OPERATOR Asphalt Pavinc Co. <br />STREET 14802 W. 44th Ave. <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP Golden, CO 80403 <br />cc: Carl H.
