CO 80 S40 <br />RE: The Division of Minerals and Geology's (DMG) Request for a Technical Revision to the Permit for <br />the Southdown Inc. Lyons Plant, Lyons Quarry, Permit No. #M-77-208 <br />Dear Mr. Lohr, <br />A technical revision to modify your permit to include the Cement Kiln Dust (CKD) disposal operations at <br />the "C" Pi[ of Lyons Quarry, Permit No. #M-77-208 was requested on October 18, 1999. Based on a <br />meeting held with the Division of Minerals and Geology (DMG) staff on November 2~, 1999, we would <br />like to clarify the DMG position regarding this request. <br />After review of information submitted by your company over the last three months, iC has been concluded <br />that the reclamation measures already in place to mitigate the environmental effects of CKD disposal <br />should be specifically written into the current permit in order For DMG to include the cost for these <br />activities in the reclamation bond, and in order to codify their implementation. This in no way implies that <br />the management practices or operations at the quarry have been inadequate prior to this review. <br />DMG is currently examining all permitted sites which contain CKD disposal, in order to bring these sites <br />into regulatory compliance. Our request for a technical revision typically how DMG handles such <br />situations. <br />We have received your request for an extension of [he due date for a submittal of a technical revision to <br />December 1, and we have no problem with extending this submittal date. If you have any further <br />questions, please contact me at (303) 866-3567. <br />Sincerely, <br />C risti~mn <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Cc: Carl B. Mount, DMG <br />H.
