Grieb, Director <br />6060 Broadway <br />Denver, Colorado 80216 (8251192) <br />h"r. Keith Holsinger <br />P.O. Box 37 <br />'.:ralden, Colorado 804B0 <br />Dear Keith: <br />iii iiiiiiiiiiiii iii <br />April 5, 1Q80 <br />This letter is in response to your request dated April 3, 1980, for an addendum <br />to be included with your material to the 2;ined land Reclamation Board. <br />After I reviewed your plan on March 30, 1980, I west to the proposed gravel pit <br />site for an on the ground evaluation. I?y findings are: <br />1. There are no rare or endangenered species inhabiting or using the site. <br />2. There is no critical wildlife habitat identified under HB 1041 on the <br />site. <br />3. The operation gill not effect the ::ichigan or Illinois Rivers and the <br />fisheries therein. <br />4. Species inhabiting the area are as you have listed, except sage grouse. I <br />do not believe sage grouse use the proposed site. <br />5. The tildlife inhabiting the area will not be adversely effected in any way. <br />6. I also found that your proposed reclamation to be more than adequate to restore <br />the area to a level which is equal to the habitat now available, It would be <br />beneficial if some $orbes like sweet clover could be planted along with your <br />other planned seeding during reclamation. <br />I hope this answers the questions you have as!ced and meets the requirements of the <br />i?ined Land Reclamation people. <br />If you have any further questions, contact me. <br />Cordially yours, <br />~~~~;~ <br />John L.
