Lamm <br />Governor <br />May 8, 1985 <br />Mr. Dick Hines <br />Colorado Division of Highways <br />4340 E. Louisiana Avenue <br />Denver, Colorado 80222 <br />Re: Nordyke Pit - File No. M-85-040 <br />Dear Mr. Hines: <br />DIVISION <br />I received the copy of the publication and the proofs of notifications to <br />adjacent landowners for the Nordyke Pit. The publication appears to be <br />,,,~~~dequate, but I received no proof that the adjacent landowner to the east, Mr. <br />\ /Chester A. Akers, was properly notified. Please submit this certified mail <br />IX\ receipt as soon as it is available. <br />I should also mention my conversation today with Dennis Zachman of the B.L.M. <br />He called me as a result of a site visit he made to the proposed Nordyke Pit. <br />He called a problem to my attention that I had not considered in my adequacy <br />letter to you. Thus, I will ask the question he raised now. How is the <br />gravel to be brought down the steep hillside to be moved along the haul road <br />south off the permit area? The present map merely shows the haul road <br />deadending into the steep hillside. <br />I presume a switchback haul road could be used. If a conveyor is used, a <br />staging area by the creek would probably be needed. Such an area would be <br />close to the creek and would need to be bermed or otherwise isolated from the <br />creek. <br />Mr. Zachman mentions that an alternative access route over B.L.M. land could <br />also possibly be used and is willing to discuss such a route if you prefer. <br />He also mentioned that such an alternate route should in no way be considered <br />to be a requirement of your free use permit for the Nordyke Pit. <br />Please clarify these two matters for me before the scheduled May 22-23, 1985 <br />Board meeting. <br />Sincerely, <br />~ ~ <br />Mark S.
