I live just south of this area and I do not want my air polluted <br />with the dust from the mining or the exhaust fumes from the trucks that will <br />be exiting not far from my hmie. I built my home in this area because of <br />the beauty and clean air. You can no doubt see from the other "scars" on the <br />mountains in this area, that the beauty and environment are slowly being <br />ruined and what the tourist cane to see will no longer exist. I have <br />concerns for the wildlife as I have often observed the deer in the hills <br />around Williams and Black Canyon and I am sure the few that stray down <br />into my neighborhood in the winters, have cane fxtia[t those hills. Access <br />from this area will be a traffic hazard that we local's don't want to <br />contend with and will certainly cause a lot of anxiety with our summer <br />tourists visiting the Garden of the Gods. Allowing Castle Concrete to <br />develop and mine will level South Peak. Can you allow this destruction? <br />Please reconsider your decision and save our mountains: I have attached <br />some additional information. <br />'I9~ank you. <br />Sincerely, <br />
