Box 2679 <br />Colorado Springs, CO 80901-2679 <br />Dear Bill: <br />°y ~ -`~/ ply to : 2820 <br />~,, Date: August 14, 1987 <br />,' X06 24 ]981 <br />`~ RECEIVED . <br />This memo is a followup to your and Hike Ward's visit of August I1, 1987, to <br />the Hubbard Creek upper ventilation fan site. <br />Our letter of April 24, 1986, to Jay Smaldone outlined requirements for <br />reclamation (copy attached). <br />During the meeting on Tuesday, several adjustments to requirements in the <br />April 24, 1986, letter were discussed and agreed upon. I will reiterate the <br />requirements by keying them to the seven points of the April 24, 198b, letter: <br />1. Same as April 24, 1986. <br />2. Modify so that pad for Forest land remains intact to use as parking <br />area/trailhead. <br />• 3. No backsloping of fill slopes required as area has revegetated. The <br />old road will close itself, therefore, no work is necessary on it. <br />4. Same as April 24, 1986, letter or l1LRD requirement if necessary. , <br />5. Same as April 24, 1906, letter. <br />6. Insure that new road drains properly. <br />7. Same as April 24, 1986, <br />In addition, we discussed the sediment pond reclamation, and decided to take <br />care of this per MLRD requirements since a minor portion of the pond is on the <br />Forest. <br />An additional requirement which was discussed briefly is that of access right;, <br />through the Kaiser portion of the pad so that public access to the parking area -~ <br />will be assured. This is a necessary part of the program or the existing pad <br />can serve no useful purpose. <br />Bill, we appreciate your concern in getting this area reclaimed <br />questions, please don't hesitate to call Mike blard. <br />• Sire <br />STEVEt: L.
