<br />O 1~ ~5e ~'~ - o ~l <br />4/20/07 <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety <br />1313 Sherman St., #215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Re: Coaldale Gypsum Quarry <br />RECEIVED <br />APR 2 3 2007 <br />Division of Reclamation, <br />~I{ining and Safety <br />We reside at 11912 County Road 45 in Coaldale and strongly oppose the granting of the <br />application to re-open the open pit gypsum mine that has been closed for over twenty <br />years. <br />Those twenty years have brought irreversible changes to the valley in terms of population <br />and life style that would be severely and adversely impacted by the mining operation. <br />This type of operation is disastrous to the environment as a whole and the pollutants and <br />contaminates that will be unleashed will create severe health hazards. We have deep <br />concerns for the wild life and impact that polluted run off would have on the Arkansas <br />River. <br />We sit atop a fragile aquifer and blasting in an open pit operation has the potential to <br />damage it further and destroy numerous deep wells that we residents depend on. <br />Further, Holcim, Inc., as a mine operator is a notorious polluter, who, according to the <br />EPA runs some of the dirtiest mining operations in the country. <br />Please, for the health and integrity of our valley, deny this application. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~f~~~ ~~~ ~~- ~~~~ <br />Leslie W Olson and Peggy J Olson <br />c/ <br />Cc: Fremont County Planning and Zoning Department <br />°µ~i977-~y7 <br />~~ ~ <br />615 Macon Avenue <br />Canon City, CO 81212 <br />
