Cooley Sand and Gravel , continued page d 9) Trees and Shrubs: Some trees and shrubs that could be included in the revegetation of the area , above water level , are as follows: conifer trees could include Eastern red cedar, Rocky Mountain juniper , Ponderosa pine , and Scotch pine. Deciduous trees that could be included are Siberian elm, Green ash , Hackberry, Cottonwood and Willow. Shrubs that are adapted include Antelope Bitterbrush , rourwing Saltbush, Hansen Rose, Rabbit Brush , Siberian Peabush, Honeysuckle , Skunkbush Sumac , and Lilac. 10 ) Structures: Any water inlet or outlet from an excavated area should be protected with an adequate structure to prevent erosion . An inlet area would need a drop structure to allow the water to enter the excavated area without causing erosion . Depending on pond size after gravel is removed , rip-raping may be needed to protect banks from wave action . 11 ) Setback . Excavation should be maintained at an appropriate setback distance between the South Platte River , property lines , and Bull See? Ditch. This is to prevent any possible sloughing of banks that -would disturb the adjoining property or water courses. Setback for the different items mentioned above may be different. Adams Countv Department of Planning and Development or the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation should be able to provide the appropriate setbacks required . APPROVAL: .All mining operations should be done in accordance with tie regulations of the Colorado Mined land Reclamation , Adams County Department of Planning and Development and any other governmental agencies which may be involved.
