File No./Operator/Operation: M-1979-045, Lakewood Brick & Tile Company. Church Pit
Subject: Stipulation 1 to Permit Amendment 1 Approval dated April 25.1985, requiring the operator
to replace 2 Rocky Flats Plant water sampling wells with equivalent wells in the same vicinity: follow-up
letter dated December 17. 2004, with January 17, 2005 deadline.
Type of Interaction: Meeting Phone Other
Person(s) contacted and affiliation: Steve O'Brian. Environment. Inc.. (3031423-7297, consultantto the
Summary and Resolution of Interaction: Steve O'Brian inspected the site and learned that an
overburden pile now exists where the 2 referenced wells were. Investigation reveals that DOE pulled the
wells and left the casings on the ground. A 2002 letter from the operator to its attorney refers to this
situation. It is believed that the final disposition of the wells is referred to in a settlement agreement
between the operator and DOE. The person with access to the needed documentation is on vacation for
the next 3 weeks, so the response date was extended to March 14, 2005. O'Brian suspects that a letter
from DOE would take longer to acquire.
