The Division received your adequacy responses for the Builders Aggegate Pit Conversion Application 02
(CN-02) faxed to the Division on September 29, 2007. The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety
(Division) has a few remaining questions that need to be addressed prior to approval of the application.
The Division is required to make an approval or denial decision no later than September 30, 2007,
therefore, your response to the following adequacy review concerns should be submitted to the Division
as soon as possible.
1. Thank you for clarifying that the operator of the site is Builder's Aggregate, Inc. However, in doing
so, the permit will need to be transferred from Builders Aggregate Co. Inc. to Builder's Aggregate,
Inc. This is to ensure that the performance warranty and financial warranty are legally under the
correct name of Builder's Aggregate, Inc. Attached is a form that must be completed for the transfer
of permit.
2. The operator notes that the buffer zone has been armored adjacent to the river for the entire length of
the property. Please describe in further detail the armoring (i.e. line by rip-rap, concrete, etc..) and
the extent of armoring. Photographs of the lined azea will help clarify the magnitude of armoring
along the river.
3. Please provide documentation that the site has been approved as industrial by Morgan County once
mining is complete. In the event the documentation cannot be obtained from the County, an alternate
reclamation plan must be submitted to the Division. The alternate plan will need to include grading,
topsoil replacement and reseeding of the area and well as posting of additional reclamation bond.
This is to ensure that the site will be reclaimed if the industrial land use is not achieved.
In order to address these remaining issues, the Operator may request that the Division's decision date be
extended, Please submit a request to extend the Division's decision date to allow for additional time.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 303-866-4943.
