Vasquez, Costilla County Administrator <br />Dear Mr. Oswald, <br />This letter is in response to your letter dated September 11, 1995. <br />EXHIBIT B - Site Description <br />Part a. please see the attached report from NRCS. <br />Part b. There are no structures inside of the permit boundary. <br />Within 200 feet of the permit boundary there are five land <br />owners that have been notfied by registered mail. This <br />include the D&RGW Railroad, Department of Transportation, <br />Sierra Grande School, Joe Rodriquez and Asphalt Paving. <br />EXHIBIT C - Hining Plan <br />Depth of mining will not exceed 25 feet deep and will be mined at <br />an average 25 foot depth. The direction of mining will be to the <br />west and the separate pits will eventually join. <br />There is little to no topsoil to be recovered from the area. All <br />topsoil will be brought in on as needed basic. Topsoil may be <br />donated or purchased from local farmers. <br />Since the pits will eventually join, there will only be the one <br />ramp because at this time there are no plans for structures or <br />processing onsite. If this should change, Costilla County will <br />request a technical revision to the permit. <br />Reclamation on the east pit will begin immediately upon approval <br />and therefore will not be operated more. Once the east pit is <br />reclaimed there will no longer be an issue with the water seepage <br />from irrigation: Mining will continue in the opposite direction <br />away from irrigation with~the east pit in between. <br />
