The site used to be a large 112 sand and gravel <br />operation that is under going reclamation at the present time. The MLRD <br />Board to the State Parks Department released a portion of the permit area <br />in 2005.AS reported in the past inspection report dated 2/18/05, the site <br />as apart of the approved reclamation plan by the State Engineer is <br />constructing a clay lined dam along the Arkansas River so they can complete <br />the reclamation of the West pit. The operator had planned to complet the <br />task by the end of June. Due to other commitments in their other operation <br />and the slight problems the operator encountered completing the clay lining <br />of the South Eastern corner due to water seepage from two sides, operator <br />requested to have the site inspected and extend the completion date to <br />October 31, 2005. <br />At the time of the inspection two compactors, a small dozer and a scarper <br />were being utilized to seal the face along the Arkansas River. Operator was <br />also utilizing two pumps to pump out the water from the seep area and <br />placing it into a detention basin before it is discharged to the River. <br />Only 700 lineal feet and an additional 500 feet that was already placed but <br />did not meet the compaction requirement is left and operator plans to <br />complete the task by the end of October. The already completed clay lined <br />area was stable and no leakage was noted. Given the progress of the work <br />and the difficulty the operator had to go through to complet the task, the <br />Division extends the completion date to 10/31/05. <br />I & E Contact Address All overburden/ topsoil <br />r BL <br />NAME: MR GERALD HERMANS r FS <br />r HW <br />OPERATOR: TRANSIT MIX OF PUEBLO r HMWMD (CH) <br />STREET: P_n RnX Rh7 r <br />r SE <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: PIIFRI (~.
