Box 147 <br />Fairplay, Colorado 80440 <br />RE: Park County gavel Pita - Our File 077-365 <br />;180-9 thru <br />"30-19 inclusive., <br />'~80-251 <br />,~so-zs2 <br />Dear 1•Ir. Freitag: <br />If you will agree to the following contingencies, I will recommend approval <br />of the above applications to the tuned Land Reclamation Board '!.arch 31st. <br />Unless you respond to the contrary, it will be assumed that you are in <br />agreement. <br />1. Rule 6.4 states very specifically that topsoil shall be <br />removed and stockpiled from other spoil prior to <br />extraction. <br />I would agree that it is not practical to stockpile topsoil <br />from the T<~n creak Pit, and the Soil Conservation Service <br />report suggests the soils at the Hall Gulch, Sportamana <br />and Elkhorn Springs Pit are eimi ar~3y developed. <br />IIowever, I have inspected several of the other pits and do <br />not agree that soil should not be salvaged from the future <br />workings. As an example. Granite Construction Company, a <br />short distance to the NW of the 11-Ati].e Pit, will be stripp- <br />ing 3-6 inches of topsoil for salvage. The topsoil does not <br />have to Nava the large cobbles separated from the fines to <br />be useful. The Soil Conaervatlon Service reports ahw <br />adequate topsoil development for the other sltea which ward- <br />warrant stripping. ~' °~~ ~' <br />Therefore, we will require that when topsoil of 3 inches or . <br />greater in thiclmesa is encountered during expansion of the <br />
