999 <br />TO: Division of Minerals and Geology <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Attn: Mr. Carl Mount <br />FROM: Mr. & Mrs. Charles Brody <br />5001 E. 88th Avenue <br />Henderson, CO 80640 <br /> <br />RFrEIVEG <br />DEI; u 1 1994 <br />L)IVISien UI mmridia v ucw„i <br />I am writing in reference to the letter sent on October 31, 1994 by ADCO Consulting (Cherokee <br />Investment, Inc. Of Thorton, CO). The Public Notice indicated that the Cooley Gravel Company <br />of Lakewood, CO had filed an application for a reclamation permit to mine the "Dahlia North <br />Resource Pit" (located at or near Section 19, Township 2 South, Range 67 West, 6th Prime <br />Meridian) was filed with your office. <br />Based upon the public notice, we were asked to voice any comments or concerns: <br />#1. Our Surface Well: Located approximately 250 feet west and 600 feet to the south of the <br />property line boundary for the project. The bonded well is 33 feet deep to bedrock and <br />has a 1 HP submergible pump. If the water table should fall (which happened during the <br />initial digging), what provisions would be made for our outside watering needs? This is <br />the only outside well on the property and ftdfills the watering requirements for gardens, <br />lawn, shrubs, and trees throughout the l0' acre property. <br />#2. Air Pollution: The dirt and dust from beans have been a source of concern in the past. <br />(The summer of 1994 brought on at least one dust storm, from the current project, that <br />left near zero visibility.) With beans now to the North, Northeast, and East, what <br />precautions have been made to reduce the risk of future problems? What is our recourse <br />as property owners? <br />The Cooley Gravel Company has been a good neighbor. I have voiced our concerns to their <br />representatives and they have indicated they would "take care of any problems" that caused <br />damage or discomfort. I would want that commitment to "take care" of problems or concerns as <br />part of the public record. I also want to insure that they stay within the 50 ft. Perimeter boundary <br />for mining. We do not wish to stop the mining; only to ensure that all necessary precautions are <br />taken. <br />Thank you. <br />Respectfully, <br />Charles and Dorothy Brody <br />
