PETITION TO PROTEST SPECIAL-USE PERMIT FROM PUEBLO <br />COUNTY <br />We, the undersigned, strongly protest any mining m the area of Pueblo County commonly referred to as <br />Peck's Canyon and owned by Douglas and Kelly Park. We request that Pueblo County deny the request <br />by Siloam Stone for the special use permit they have requested in order to allow this azea to be mined for <br />landscape rock materials. Peck's Canyon is a beautiful and unique place on earth. The mining activity <br />proposed by Siloam Stone could destroy the beauty of this azea, with no chance for reclamation to its <br />original state. The spring-fed deep-rock pools are full yeaz-round. They provide the watering hole for <br />azea wildlife. Because this azea is a natural wetland, it is home to a plethora of plant and wildlife species <br />not seen elsewhere m the azea. The canyon is also known state-wide by rock climbers. Mining this <br />canyon would be tragic, and may destroy one of the most beautiful and unique places in Pueblo County. <br />Again, by signing this petition, we protest any mining activity in this area, and strongly urge that the <br />special use permit mentioned above be denied. <br />~ ~~ ~ ow u~~.S ~ ~J <br />Printed Name Signature Address <br />~!~'~ T I l 5 -l <br />
