These activities could occur in <br />conjunction with site construction or demolition projects where the use of minor amounts of <br />explosives could assist in breaking-up resistant rock layers, lazge boulders, or building foundations. <br />In each case where small-scale blasting activities would be applied, anactivity-specific blast design <br />would be prepared, signed, and submitted to the CDRMS prior to initiation of blasting operations. <br />We appreciate your consideration and cooperation. Given that the need for this revision has azisen <br />in conjunction with an active construction project, any assistance you can provide in expediting <br />review and approval of this Minor Revision request will be greatly appreciated.
