INTRODUCTION <br />Lafarge West, Inc. ('Lafarge' or'ApplicanC) requests an amendment to its Regular <br />(I 12) Permit number M-86-079 (M&G Pit). Wells Fargo Bank, N.A as trustee of <br />Pollyanna F. Mann Marital Trust Qandowner), has determined that the preferred method <br />of reclaiming the M&G Pit is to backfill the property to an elevation at least two feet <br />above the historic ground water table. Buckfilling will create the potential for a more <br />beneficial use for the landowner and avoid evaporative losses of ground water from the <br />lake in the previously approved final reclamation plan. The prevention of evaporative <br />loss of exposed groundwater is required by Colorado Statute and regulatory requirements <br />of the Colorado State Engineers Office. <br />The source of the backfill material will be overburden and other inert materials such as <br />washed fines from sand and gravel pits in the vicinity of the M&G Pit. The backfill will <br />be placed in a manner to meet the requirements of 3.1.5(?) of the Construction Materials <br />Rules. <br />Mining is complete at this pit and no additional mining will take place. Lafarge has <br />already secured all local approvals required to complete the reclamation. <br />To support this request, I hove submitted the following: <br />• Map depicting the revised reclamation plan <br />• Permit Amendment Fee in the form of a money order for $1938.00 <br />
