Six problems <br />were cited at the time of the inspection, with a 60 day due date for five and a 30 day due <br />date for one of them, and it was decided at that time that recalculation of Braley Sand & <br />Gravel's bond would take place in July. The 30-day item was resolved in June, and the other <br />five items were addressed during this inspection. The following observations were made during <br />this inspection. <br />1. The required sign displaying the permit number and name of the pit was posted at the <br />entrance to the site. <br />2. The berm along the Highline Canal has been backfilled, except for about 100 feet which is <br />being completed at this time. The southern boundary undercutting has also been repaired <br />(with about 150 feet left until completion), and the adjacent elopes graded at 3H:1V. <br />3. A map with the clearly designated topsoil etorage area, concrete and asphalt storage, and <br />overburden piles, and estimated volumes was provided by Harry Eppe. <br />4. A copy of the recent survey of the new property boundary lines was given to DMG. <br />5. A request for a technical revision to the permit to include concrete and asphalt etorage <br />oneite was given to DMG'e representative. A technical adequacy review of the revision has <br />already been sent to Braley Sand ~ Gravel, Inc. <br />6. The western and northern edges of the permit area are still somewhat ill-defined. <br />7. After extensive measurement of topsoil, asphalt and concrete stockpiles, distances <br />Setween highwall cute and overburden etorage, and length of cute, enough information was <br />obtained to recalculate the bond for the permit area (see attached Cost Summary). <br />8. According to the last amendment to the permit (1986), only 8 acres of the site were to <br />be disturbed at any one time. According to DMG~e observations, at least 53 acres of the site <br />have been mined and not yet reclaimed. Also, while we are assuming that there ie enough <br />topsoil on Bite to reclaim the entire disturbed area, it ie possible that Braley sand & <br />Gravel, Inc. does not currently have enough topsoil to complete reclamation. Should this <br />prove to be the case, another increase in the financial warranty will be required. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME Harrv EAPH <br />OPERATOR Bralev Sand & Gravel, Inc. <br />STREET 8505 Mountain View Rd. <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP Littleton, CO 80125 <br />cc: Carl B.
