Cattany <br />Division Direcor <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />Thank you for your inquiry as to the status of the compliance, reporting, and bonding concel-ning the above-named <br />peltnitted gravel pit. I have checked the permit file and our database, and can relate the foll~~wing to you: <br />1. You are the permitted operator of this site. <br />2. A Construction Materials 110 permit was issued in 1995. <br />3. There has been one amendment to the 110 permit: to increase the permitted acreage. <br />4. There has been one technical revision to the mining plan of the 110 permit: to increase th.e amount of disturbed <br />acreage. <br />S. There has been one conversion of the 110 permit: to increase the permitted acreage and convert the permit to a <br />112c permit. <br />6. The present bond amount is $24,002, and is considered adequate at this time to complete the approved <br />reclamation. <br />7. The site is regularly inspected by DMG staff. When problems have been found during past inspections, they <br />have all been minor in nature, and corrected in a timely manner. There are no outstanding problems to be <br />corrected. (The Division will contact you later in 2005 for scheduling the next monitoring inspection.) <br />8. The site has consistently been observed to be maintained in a neat and orderly manner. <br />9. The filing of annual reports and payment of annual fees is current, and has been timely each year. <br />For the record, this office considers you to be a consistently responsible operator, to be prompt and thorough in any <br />necessary follow-up documentation or onsite activity, and to provide high quality narratives, maps and diagrams of <br />the permit area for the several modifications to the permit (listed above). <br />I hope the summary about your permitted gravel pit, above, is sufficient for your needs. If further information is <br />needed, please contact me at the Division's Durango field office: 701 Camino del Rio, Room 125, Durango, CO <br />81301; telephone 970-247-5193. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~ ~~~ <br />Bob Oswald <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Ec: Harry Posey, DMG <br />Office of Office of Colorado <br />Mined Land Reclamation Active and Inactive Mines Geological Survey <br />
