M-88-101) Reason to Believe Violation Exists <br />Mr. Frank Starkey <br />Elbert County Board <br />P.O. Box 597 <br />Dear Mr. Starkey: <br />On July 3, 1991 we conducted an inspection of your mine and found that the <br />outslope of the (west) berm of the pit, adjacent to Spring Branch, had not <br />been stabilized by riprap which was to be accomplished by May 31, 1991 as a <br />condition to approval of TR-01. The berm and outslope, furthermore, had not <br />been vegetated for erosion control as approved with the initial permit <br />application. A copy of the inspection report is attached. <br />We believe this is a violation of Statute 34-32-116(7)(1) of the Colorado <br />Mined Land Reclamation Act 34-32-101 et. sew., C.R.S. 1973 as amended. <br />Therefore, we have found reason to believe a violation exists to Permit <br />M-88-101 and the Law and have scheduled this matter before the Colorado <br />Mined Land Reclamation Board. <br />A Formal Public Hearing will be held during the August 21-22, 1991 Board <br />meeting for consideration of possible violation. The hearing will be held <br />in Room 318 of 1313 Sherman Street, Denver, Colorado 80203 beginning at 9:00 <br />a.m. or as soon thereafter as the matter Can be considered and you will have <br />the opportunity to be represented and heard. It will be reiterated that there <br />is reason to believe that you are in violation of the provisions noted above. <br />
