The pit site is located within Sections 6 and 7, <br />Township 47 North, Range 8 West, Montrose County, Colorado. <br />Based on a site inspection by Mr. Randy Snyder, we have <br />detemined that jurisdictional wetlands do exist within the permit <br />boundary. Since a wetland delineation has not been performed at <br />the pit site an accurate map of wetlands does not exist for this <br />site. We would strongly recommend that a delineation be <br />performed to alleviate any chance of fill being placed in <br />wetlands. <br />Riparian areas and riparian wetlands are the most <br />productive, have the widest variety of habitat diversity for <br />wildlife, fish and watershed protection. Therefore, these areas <br />should be given an adequate buffer when determining permit <br />boundaries. <br />We have assigned number 199875550 to this project. Please <br />refer to this number in any corespondence with this office. If <br />you have any questions, please write to Mr. Snyder or telephone <br />(970) 243-1199, extension 14. <br />Copies Furnished: <br />Mr. Robert Caskey, Colorado Division of wildlife, 711 Independent <br />Avenue, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501 <br />Mr. Paul von Guerard, Subdistrict Chief, U.S. Geological Survey, <br />764 Horizon Drive, Suite 125, Grand Junction, Colorado 81506 <br />Montrose County, Post Office Box 1298, Montrose, Colorado 81402 <br />Sin rely, <br />Ke ac son <br />Ch e Southwestern Co <br />
