• <br />SUMMARY <br />McNULTY PIT <br />i <br />The pit is located approximately 17.5 miles south and east of Glenwood <br />l Springs and 15.5 miles south and west pf Gypsum on an unpaved county <br />road known as the "Cottonwood Pass" road, also located at the head of <br />Cattle Creek. <br />J The pit is a deposit of volcanic cinder laying on the surface of the base <br />of a mountain. The depth and size of material varies but is estimated to <br />be in excess of 50 feet deep within the limits of our optioned area. <br />~ The material is excavated and fed through screening or crushing equipment <br />and placed in the stockpile area. The material is used by other city <br />and county agencies for sanding icy road conditions. <br />-Reclamation will consist of contouring the excavated areas as there worked <br />out to blend with the surrounding terrain. The slopes will be left <br />rough and will be seeded and reclaimed as best as possible. The floor of <br />the pit will be graded to drain with the natural drainage and all waste <br />piles will be smoothed Lo blend with the floor and the pit. The haul <br />road also services the owners storage area and will not require any <br />rehabilitation. The operation is planned to be a long term operation <br />and reclamation will be completed as areas are worked out. <br />
