Box 960 <br />Carbondale, Colorado 87623 <br />(303) 96&3440 <br />December 17, 1980 <br />Mr. Chuck Buchanan <br />General Manager <br />Mountain States Machinery & Supply, Inc. <br />P.O. Box 550 <br />Price, Utah 84501 <br />Re: Reclamation of Coal [daste Piles in the Jerome Park Area of Pitkin <br />and Garfield Counties <br />Dear Mr. Buchanan: <br />It has recently come to my attention that your work to reclaim old coal refuse <br />piles located in Aspen gulch, Spring gulch, and Marrion gulch has been completed. <br />This is evident by your total abandonment of the sites as of December 5, 1980. <br />As you stated in your letter to Mr. Todd A. Gibson of the Colorado Mined Land <br />Reclamation Division dated August 26, 1980, your plans to prevent degradation <br />of the land included resloping the area to it's original contour and seeding <br />as the work was completed. <br />While it is recognized that severe winter storm conditions would possibly have <br />prevented this clean up work from being done, this has not been the case. The <br />weather in this area,has been quite warm and dry. <br />Our concern is that valuable time has been wasted due [o your delay in starting <br />the regrading and clean up work. We are also concerned over the amount of trash <br />and screen reject material that has been left in the previous vicinity of your <br />screening plant. <br />We are hereby requesting that you begin the following described work immediately: <br />1 - Remove and dispose of all trash and debris left in your previous <br />work areas. <br />2 - Remove the screen reject material from the site or replace it at <br />the location of the old coal waste piles and cover it with soil. <br />d I <br />
