Stan McMahon of Arkins Pack Stone Corporation was <br />present during the inspection. Weather conditions on site were clear and warm. Ground <br />conditions were dry. <br />The Berthoud Sunset Quarry is located approximately 2 K miles south of Carter Lake in <br />to rimer County. Colorado. She 110 permit was issued to Arkins Park Stone Corp. on September <br />1, 1994. The permitted affected area to 9.9 acres in size. No mining was taking place <br />during the inspection. <br />According to the operator, [he quarry is mined according to demand and hat had intermittent <br />use over the past year. Some fire mitigation has been conducted in the areas adjacent to the <br />property such as trimming trees, removing undergrowth and reseeding areas chat have been <br />damaged by fire. Since the Division's inspecticn of February 2, 2000, mining has resulted In <br />a more defined pit with a highwall approximately 30 Eeet high. Mining has progressed to the <br />wesc, roughly 100 feet from the edge of [he cliff. A number of internal roads and small dump <br />piles are within [he pit boundaries. <br />The Division currently holds a bond in [he amount of $4,635.'10. The Division believes that <br />this amount is not adequate to reclaim the site as per the approved reclamation plan. The <br />Oiviaion will reevaluate the amount of required financial warranty within 60~days from the <br />date of this inspection. The operator will be notified of any increase to the bond under <br />separate cover. <br />The Division traversed [he permit area to locate the permit boundary markers. Markers were <br />noted, but it was not clear iE they repreaerted the permit area or the property boundaries. <br />According to the mine plan map, mining is to stay 200 feet from the property line to the <br />west. Without knowing the location of the property line, It is impossible to determine the <br />western boundary limits. Therefore, the operator will need to mark the permit boundary <br />location in accordance with Rule 3.1.12 and submit documentation to the Division in the form <br />of phocographs by July 14, 2006.
