BOX 758 <br />GREELEY, COLORADO 80632 <br />WEBSITE: WWW.CO.WELD.CO.US <br />PHONE (970) 356-4000, EXT. 3750 <br />FAX: (970) 304-6497 <br />~/ {/' <br />RE: Adequacy Review; Weld County Public Works: Ashbaugh Gravel Pit, New 110 Permit Application No. M-2005-060 <br />Dear Ms. Sullivan: <br />The following is in response to the Division's adequacy review concerns. <br />1. Enclosed is a copy of proof of publication circulation in the Greeley Tribune. Notice to landowners was sent to the <br />Division on September 12, 2005. <br />2. Site Description: Enclosed is a soil survey map with the approximate location of the proposed site outline in <br />green. The site is located in the #20 area of the map; this is referenced in Exhibit "B" of the application. <br />3. The owner of the fence is the landowner, Mr. Ashbaugh. <br />4. Weld County will be working the pit intermittently as material is needed. Material from this pit will be used in the <br />surrounding area on county road maintenance and county projects. Weld County, because of its size, works in <br />different areas of the county at different times of the year depending on the need and weather. It will be <br />uncommon to surpass 180 days of inactivity at the pit, although it may be a possibility. It would not be for an <br />extended period of time. <br />5. If the topsoil is not reapplied within one year of removal, the stockpiled material will have straw or hay <br />crimped/mulched in or we will seed the stockpile with cover crop. It is possible that the topsoil will have a seed <br />source of grass that could grow on its own. <br />6. Enclosed also is a copy of the Substitute Water Supply Plan for the Geisert Pit approved by the State Engineer's <br />Office. We are permitted to use up to 75 acre-feet per year. Our current usage will be approximately 50 acre-feet <br />leaving us more than enough water for use at the Ashbaugh Gravel Pit. <br />If you have any qu lions, please call. <br />Sincerely, <br />Greg Nelson <br />Mining Supervisor <br />Enclosures <br />pc: Ashbaugh Gravel Pit file M:\Mining\AShbaugh M&G-Iet.DOC <br />
