• III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII`~~! 999 RF~FIVED NOV 2 2 1995 TO: Division of Minerals and Geology FROM: Don Richardson Sr, Divioion of M~narals & Ge010gy Re: The conversion of the X74 Pit, Permit No, M-87-O?O from a 110 0) Limited Impact Reclamation operation to a 112 Regular reclamation operation Dear Sirs. I,m voicing my concern of this proposed permitting because of the fact that if you look at its location you will see it is located right in the middle of a Residentuale are, and the dust from the crushing operations and the noise should not be allowed to continue. The pit has been extended to the point that it is almost in my back vard. There is also the fact that mast of the time the water level in the pits is high enough that the machinery is actually wor{:ing in the water and this effects our drinking water because we are on a well system. In the past the operators of the crushing system have been told to keep the dust down but they continue to ignore this regest. I have also in the past notified the county commissioner office and nothing gets done. This might have something to do with the fact the one of the commissioners owns the land that is being used far the gravel pit, now I ask you does this seem quit right I dont think so. There are several of my neighbors who strongly object to this pit right in our back doors, that is the reason we moved out in the country so we wouldnt have to put up with the noise. When we moved here this area was zoned as a residentuale area and there was never any one notified of a gravel pit being put in , one day there it was to every ones surprise. So I dont want to see this pit made into a permanant eye sore, I would like to see it removed and everything put back to as close to normal as it can be, there are plenty of other locations that are away from where people are tying to live this isnt the place for a gravel pit. Thank You very mucc r+?
