Cottony <br />Division DlreGtOr <br />Natu21 Resource Trustee <br />Thank you for your letter of Mazch 10, 2004 regarding the notification of placement of inert fill at the Glass <br />Gravel Pit, Permit M-1981-022. In you letter you state that approximately 250,000 cubic yazds of inert <br />material will be backfilled on site. Incorporating up to 250,000 cubic yazds in the pit will ultimately change <br />the final configuration of the lake, if not eliminate the lake in its entirety. This is considered a change to the <br />reclamation plan that requires a revision to the permit. <br />At this time Connell Resources will need to submit a technical revision to the permit to reduce the size of the <br />lake up to two-thirds of its original size. The revision will need to address the components of Rule 3.1.5(9), <br />final pit slopes, topsoil replacement and revegetation. During the review of the revision, the Division will <br />determine if the current bond is sufficient to achieve the revised reclamation plan. <br />If Connell intends to fill the lake beyond two-thirds of the original size, the Division considers this a <br />significant change to the reclamation plan. Such change may need to be filed as an amendment to the permit <br />as defined in Rule 1.1(6) of the Construction Materials Rules and Regulations. <br />Please submit the technical revision noted above on or before May 31, 2004. If you have any questions, <br />please do not hesitate to call. <br />Since y, <br />d, <br />~rica Crosby <br />Environmental Protection Sp ialist <br />cc: r~azl Mount; DMG (via electronic transmission) <br />Will Welch; Connell Resources, Inc. <br />Office of Office of Colorado <br />Mined land Reclamation Active and Inactive Mines Geological Survey <br />
