RECEIVED <br />SAP fl 7 20fl1 <br />September 4, 2001 <br />Division at Minerals and GealoAY <br />T0: Division of Minerals and Geology <br />1313 Sherman St. Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />FROM: Daryl and Joyce Billings <br />P.O. Box 143 <br />Henderson, CO.80640 <br />RE: 124` Estates Sand and Gravel mine, Section 35, Township 1S, <br />Range 67W, 6"' Prime Meridian <br />~f}-5~ ~/ir~tt.~3 ~ rL of -Z~va / -o p5 <br />To whom it may concern: <br />We have the following concerns regarding the proposed mining of this site: <br />Will the sealing of the pit stop the natural flow of water to the numerous <br />shallow wells in the area? <br />By digging into the shale beneath, will the quality of the deep aquifer be <br />compromised by seepage of the presently contaminated shallow aquifer <br />(nitrates, DIlV1P, or others)? In the case of the arsenal. DIlvIP traveled <br />several miles forward and down. In this case, contaminated water can more <br />easily move down a couple hundred feet. <br />Thank you for your consideration in this matter. <br />9 <br />~ ,~~'A~ i ~ ~~AT <br />G°C' ~/~/- ~v~~ <br />
