Box 383 <br />Meeker, Co. 81641 <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br /> <br />,~~MAR 1:~ 2006 <br />~Diviaion o! Minerals antl Geology <br />This letter is written with concerns about the application for a Construction Materials <br />Limited Impact (110) Reclamation Permit by Russell Ranch General Partnership. The <br />proposed mine is known as the Russell Ranch Pit and is located at or neaz Section 32, <br />Township 1North, Range 93 West, 6a' Prime Meridian in Rio Blanco County. <br />When inspecting the mining plan, there was no mention of burins for dust and noise <br />control. <br />The map was not specific about how close this operation would be to the neighbors and <br />none of the land owners were named that join the land owned by Russell Ranches. It has <br />been brought to our attention that a subdivision exemption was granted by Rio Blanco <br />County in close proximity to the proposed pit. <br />At a public meeting it was indicated that water for fugitive dust control would come from <br />a ditch or from waste water. The only ditch water we aze awaze of in the azea comes <br />from the Miller Creek Ditch. To our knowledge, Miller Creek Ditch water is not <br />adjudicated for industrial use. <br />T~hjank you for your consideration, <br />{~ James L. tson <br />Diana K. Watson <br /> <br />
