If <br />draft response for Governor's signature is required, please submit to this office <br />for Director's approval. <br />The attached letter is almost identical to a situation we worked on earlier in <br />Durango. The Durango case has resulted in a lawsuit, but perhaps deserves some <br />scrutiny along with this case. <br />A gravel operation run by Strohecher Excavation was operating in hayfield with- <br />out a permit and within 50 feet of a property line when neighbors protested <br />last Spring. <br />When a cease and desist order was issued, the operation continued and a permit <br />was subsequently issued although the gravel operation was in violation of <br />several regulations. The permit was allegedly issued without proper notice to <br />the complainants, air-pollution precautions had not been taken, nor was there <br />an on-site inspection of the violations brought to the attention of the Mined <br />Land Reclamation Board. <br />As I mentioned, I believe there is a court case pending so this may be a moot <br />point, but the fact that we have had two similar complaints was a subject of <br />concern. <br />A draft response to Mr. Slovek for Governor Lamm would be appreciated. Thank <br />you for your time in this matter. <br />~,,(G~'`~,' <br />4~S:~n _ ,~ I9b1 ~~ <br />,,. , <br />_~`; . <br />
