~i <br />Ms. Lemay <br />November 12, 1997 <br />Page Four <br /> <br />- Absence of Statement of Application for Local Permits. Certain essential <br />permits seem to be missing from the Applicant. In his Reclamation <br />application, Mr. Stone needs to supply proof of a permit for the following: <br />- Storm~~~ater - from the Colorado Department of Health and <br />Environment -Water Quality Control Division. <br />- >~.il~nment Emissions Permit -from the Colorado Department of <br />Health and Environment -Air Pollution Control Division. <br />- SiTF' Emissions P . i 8s Air Poll ~ ion F,micsions No i ..
