The present landowners, Cottonwood Land Company, were given the status of the pit and the <br />process needed to be taken to either gain the reQuired lease access for crushing or access for <br />reclamation. Cottonwood and Routt County are in the process of establishing a lease for crushing. <br />Although Routt County has not crushed in the past few years we do have documentation of crushing in <br />2001. I have attached the paperwork showing this action. Routt County is aware of the 180 lapse of <br />work in this pit, but assures you, the DMG, that we are trying to regain access to crush again in the <br />near future. I will informyou of our progress in the weeks to come. <br />If crushing commences, highwalls will not be in place at the end of the project. <br />Ifyou have any Questions, at this time, please do not hesitate to call. Again, I hope that we can come <br />to an agreement soon with the landowner and Routt County can be well on our way to compliance with <br />your department. <br />Sincer ly <br />Z <br />Heather McLaughlin <br />Assistant County Engineer <br />
