I think it would <br />be a tradgedy if they are allowed to expand. The infamous <br />"scar on the mountain" is certainly proof they are a <br />very poor corporate citizen of the Colorado Springs area. <br />I have worked with mining companies in the past and <br />find the Castle Concrete Company has one of the worst <br />records concerning preservation of the environment. I <br />am certainly in favor of mining and realize we desperately <br />need mineral resources, however, in this case I am <br />opposedto any further mining. Although the Castle C~~ncrete <br />Company talks a great deal about reclamation their r~acord <br />is terrible, Of all the companies I have worked with they <br />are by far the most irresponsible. <br />I hope the Colorado Mine Land Reclamation Board puts <br />a stop to their plans to further destroy our envirorunent. <br />Sincerely, <br />;~s,~,r~ ~~~~ <br />Robert P.
