Cielc:cn cf ;,r,nuals a Gccicny <br />State Engineer's Office <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 188 <br />Denver CO 80203 <br />Dear Mr. Mount and Mr. Wolfe: <br />This letter is in reference to the shallow water wells in Henderson, <br />Colorado. Henderson is located along Brighton Rd. between 120th Ave. <br />and 124th Ave. <br />Adams County has received several complaints in reference to loss of <br />water depth in the wells. It was also alleged from some of the <br />complainants that two gravel mine pits are largely responsible. The <br />M&G Pit MLR #M86-079 has been discovered to have dewatered and <br />dry mined in specific violation of both the M&G and Adams County <br />Permit #59-86-C. The Zigan Pit No 2 MLR #82-174 operators have been <br />alleged to have clay lined the pit walls in direct violation of the Adams <br />County Permit #49-91-C(A). <br />I have enclosed the names and addresses of the owners of the wells <br />who have called in complaints in the last two weeks. <br />This letter is a formal request from the County to the Division of Minerals <br />and Geology and the Division of Water Resources for your enforcement <br />action. Please inform me as soon as possible as to your inspection <br />schedule and enforcement remedies to mitigate the loss of water in the <br />wells. <br />Thank you very much for your help with this matter. <br />Si~cerely, <br />~``~~ - ~~ <br />Craig Tessmer <br />Acting Environmental Analyst <br />cc: Board of County Commissioners <br />BOARD OF COUNTY ELAINE T.
