Gallegos <br />12127 Highway 285 <br />PO Box 575 <br />Romeo, CO 81148 <br />RE: Division of Minerals & Geology Permit #M-1983-164 <br />Dear Mr. Gallegos <br />The Conejos Couffiy Land Use Office and Board of Conejos County Commissioners received notice that <br />you have applied for a Construction Materials Regular (112) Operatic Reclamation Permit. The <br />application reflects a request for Conversion from 9.66 permitted acres to increase an additional 55.528 <br />acres for a total of 66.188 acres. <br />This letter will serve as formal notification that we object to your proposal for the Conversion - (112) <br />Operation Reclamation Permit based on the fact that you were granted a Condition Use Permit wader <br />Coumy Resolution C-100 on Apri19, 1.985 for only 19.69 acres. If you have documentation that reflects <br />other wise please provide it to our office at your earliest convenience. <br />T'he Conejos Coumy Land Use Code requires a Special Use review for a mining operation in a rozal zone <br />district. The current permit allows for mining of 19.69 acres only. Expansion of that operation without <br />the required reviewlpermit would result in anon-conforming use and violation of the Land Use Code, <br />which is subject to enforcement and penalties. <br />Enclosed you will find an application for a Special Use Review. This application is required to a~ques[ <br />that the cuae~ gravel pitlmining operation be expanded. The Special Use Review process requites <br />review by the Land Use Administrator, and public hearings before the Planning Commission and Esoard <br />of Conejos County Commissioners. <br />Please feel free to call me if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />Linda L. DeHerrera <br />Land Use Office, Administrative Assistant <br />CC: Division of Reclamation, Miniug & Safety <br />Conejos Courny Administration Office <br />
