Box 337231 Acting Division Director <br />Greeley, CO 80633 <br />RE: Permit M-1992-069 83`B Joint Venture Pit, Aggregate Industries TR-003 <br />Dear Ms. Davis, <br />The Division of Minerals and Geology (DMG) is in receipt of your letter dated November t 1, <br />2002, requesting that no further abatement activity be required in reference to Technical Revision <br />(TR) 003. The original TR indicated that Aggregate Industries would excavate the remainder of <br />contaminated soils resulting from the diesel oil spill prior to cessation of dewatering activities at <br />the site. Despite the statements in Paragon's July 6, 2001 Groundwater Abatement Report, the <br />Division continues to have concerns that groundwater may become contaminated once <br />dewatering activities cease and the groundwater level rebounds. Therefore, the Division will <br />conpnue to require Aggregate Industries to excavate the remaining contaminated soil prior to <br />cessation of dewatering at the site. Alternatively, Aggregate Industries can submit a new TR to <br />the Division outlining a continued ground water monitoring plan to monitor the groundwater <br />quality in the vicinity of the spill area after cessation of dewatering at the site. <br />If you have any further questions regarding this information, please do not hesitate to contact me <br />at (303)866-4935. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~.,,~~ <br />Kate Pickford <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />cc: Carl Mount; DMG <br />Scott Rutherford; Paragon Consulting Group <br />
