WuY W~ <br />RE~C~~VED <br />!JUN 042001 <br />Division of Reclamation, <br />Mining and Safety <br />Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety <br />Fremont County Board of Planning and Zoning <br />Mike Toelle, Holcim manager <br />Dear sirs, <br />~~~~~ <br />G~i~ 9 <br />I just want to point out for the final time that the Colorado Division of Reclamation <br />Mining and Safety as well as the Fremont County Boazd of Planning and Zoning <br />have been told n merous times with Coaldale residents' letters and phone calls that there <br />is a major disc epancy in the permit application concerning the depth of the groundwater <br />near the Coaldale gypsum mine. The permit application states that the water depth is over <br />158 ft. deep and therefore will not be affected by blasting in 30 ft. deep blasting holes. <br />Yet at the public meeting held in Coaldale on April 10, 2007 Holcim's representatives <br />stated that they know the water depth in this area is less than 100 ft. but the well owners <br />had nothing to worry about. <br />If the permit is granted and the water wells of the 19 properties which are adjacent to the <br />mine's property are adversely affected due to Holcim's blasting you can rest assured the <br />matter will be handed over to competent environmental attorneys in Denver who want to <br />handle this case. I expect that not only Holcim but also the state of Colorado will be held <br />liable £or ignoring this obvious discrepancy in the permit application process. Thank you. <br />Sincerely, <br />/~ ~-~/~°-c/ <br />Richard Carney <br />P.O. Box 254 <br />~~~111 Coaldale, CO 81222 <br />
