Mr. Berhan November 1, Page 2 Keff~ • 1996 - Amendment no. 3 Topsoil Stockpiles Topsoil stockpiling will be temporary and short term. The location of stockpiles, except for the initial cut stockpiling, will vary and generally be done around the pit margin, near the crest of the pit slopes. To comply with the concurrent reclamation requirements, slope backfilling and topsoil replacement will be done at frequent intervals. Therefore, stockpiling locations cannot be precisely defined. If the Division desires, any stockpiles present during any permit year shall be shown on the annual report map. Protection of topsoil by seeding will be done if any stockpile is expected to be in place for more than one growing season. III. Exhibit G - Water Information A) After reviewing records obtained from the Colorado Division of Water Resources (Janet Kuzmiak), in our opinion there are no wells within 600 feet of the affected area. B) Please delete the berm which is shown on the Reclamation Plan Map. IV. Exhibit H - Wildlife Information A) It is impractical to alter the planned setback. To comply with the DOW recommendations, we will provide an inventory of the vegatation in the area between our proposed setback. That inventory will be provided within 90 days of the Amendment approval. The revegetation plan will replace the woody vegetation along the Lake Shoreline. The DOW was involved with the Parks Department and Valco in this land trade. We would welcome the DOW to make and updated Wildlife Information evaluation. V. Exhibit J - Vegetation A) Yes, we will use the type of seed, fertilizer, mulch and method of seeding that the United States Department of Agriculture Recommends. VI. Exhibit L - Financial Warranty 1) permanent structures that are outside the area designated Industrial are concrete slabs. The location and size are shown on the attached map.
