RE: Lyon King Quarry; Permit No. M-1999-064 Natural Resource Trustee
Luis M. Vasquez; Financial Warranty Increase (SI-Ol)
Dear Mr. Vasquez,
On November 9, 2006, the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety conducted an inspection of
the Lion King Quarry, Permit No. M-1999-064.
According to the Colorado Land Reclamation Act for the Extraction of Construction Materials
(C.R.S. 34-32.5-117(4)(a), 34-32.5-117(4)(b)(I)) and Rules 4.2.1(1) and (2) of the Construction
Materials Rules and Regulations, the Division may review a financial warranty at any time to
determine if the amount is sufficient to perform reclamation. The Division recalculated the bond to
account for the actual disturbance at the quarry. The result of the recalculation indicates that the site
is currently underbonded. This letter is to inform you that your financial warranty will need to be
revised from its current amount of $2,500.00 to 8 400.00 within 60 days of receipt of this letter. A
copy of calculations used to determine this cost is attached for your review. The operator has three
options regarding the amount of required bond;
1. submit additional financial warranty in the amount of $5,900.00,
2. perform some reclamation on the site to reduce the reclamation liability, or
3. revise the reclamation plan.
One of the three options must be completed by June 1, 2007. Failure to do so maybe considered a
violation of the Act and the Construction Material Rules and Regulations. If you have any questions
about this process or how the bond was calculated, please contact me at [phone].
