Simpson, P.E. <br />- MEMORANDUM Sete Engineer <br />To: Carl Mount, Senior Reclamation Protection Specialist <br />Division of Minerals & Geology <br />From: Bill McIntyre, Water Resources Engineer <br />Division of Water Resources <br />Subj: Substitute Water Supply Plans (Gravel Pits) <br />Hazeltine Pit #2 (M77153) <br />Road Runners Rest Pit (M79195) <br />On November 9, 2001, a memo was sent to your agency providing <br />comments on the status of the above referenced gravel pits and their <br />compliance with this agency's statutory requirements. Subsequent to <br />that memo, work priorities were shifted that precluded completion of <br />the referenced substitute water supply plans. Additional resources <br />have been recently assigned to complete these plans in a timely <br />manner. <br />2. We have held meetings with the water consultant and have held <br />telephone conversations with the applicant's attorneys resulting in the <br />submission of supplemental information. This information will enable <br />DWR staff engineers to complete our evaluation. <br />3. Initial review of the plans are favorable as are the obligations by the pit <br />owners, the Denver Water Board, should additional replacement water <br />be needed in case of the dewatering pumps fail or if more operational <br />replacement water be needed. This agency considers the two gravel <br />pits to be in substantial compliance with our statutes, rules and <br />regulations and completion of the gravel pit substitute water supply <br />plan approval letters are expected within two weeks. <br />File: DMGmemoM79195M77153 <br />
