The technical revision is necessary to complete the corrective action as <br />required in item No. 3 of the cease and desist order attached to Notice of Violation M-95- <br />031, dated March 29, 1995. <br />The technical revision entails extending portions of [he wester permit boundary <br />approximately 1.4 acres. The extension is necessary because topsoil stripped from mining <br />areas was inadvertently stock piled outside of the original permit boundary. The area <br />directly affected by the stockpile is approximately 0.96 acres. The proposed 1.4 acre <br />extension, as shown on the attached drawings, will provide an adequate buffer zone <br />between the stockpile and permit boundary. The extension will increase [he permitted area <br />from 50.68 acres to 52.1 1 acres. <br />Topsoil vas also inadvertently stockpiled outside of the permit boundary in the southwest <br />comer of the site, affecting approximately 0.07 acres. The topsoil at this location will be <br />removed and the area reseeded. <br />The technical revision will have no impact on the mining plan currently in effect. The <br />mine reclamation plan will be the same «~th the exception of a slight increase in area to be <br />reclaimed. <br />Items contained in the techmical revision are: revised legal description, revised pre-mining <br />plan, mining plan and reclamation plan maps, revised reclamation costs, revised "Owners <br />Of Record Of Affected Land And Owners Of Substance To Be Mined" statement, and <br />permission for use of the land from the Fountain Valley Authority. <br />404 West Fontanero Street • TEL 719636-5641 FAX 719-633-8475 <br />Mailing Address: Post Office Box 1103, Mail Code 1260 • Colorado Springs, Colorado 80947-1260 <br />COLORADO SPRINGS UTILITIES <br />
