Regional Wildlife Manager <br />Colorado Division of Wildlife <br />711 Independent Avenue <br />Grand Junction, CO. 81505 <br />RE: Request for Comments -Proposed Sheehan Pit Project -Special Use Permit and DRM&S 110 <br />Permit Application for J. & D. Sand and Gravel - 1 mile South of Slater, Moffat County, Colorado. <br />Sir: <br />J. & S. Sand and Gravel is applying for a DIVIR&S Limited Impact 110 Permit and a Moffat County <br />Special Use Permit for an 8.14 acre site. A smaller 3 acre pit has/had operated since 1994 at the same site. <br />(The site is located within the NE/4 of Section 21, T72N, R89W; map attached). The applicant and <br />landowner wish to notify the DOW as to the nature of the project and request that the DOW provide <br />comments, if deemed necessary, as to any special wildlife concerns the Division may have. <br />This will be a small "family owned" long term operation similar to the previous one on the same site. <br />Operations at the site will be approximately 20 days per year. Generally site activities will be contained to <br />the previously disturbed 3 acre area initially plus some rock scaling from above previous mined areas and <br />along the eastside of the site above the County Road 1 R.O.W <br />Future minirtg activities will move to the west and north from the initial 3 acre area which will be <br />used for the site operations. Limited screening and crushing, possible asphalt production and material <br />stockpiling operations may be temporally located at the site from time to time. The site is basically a large <br />sandstone outcrop and most of the production at the site will be foz rip-rap and boulder/rock type <br />material. All areas are currently classified as rangeland and all disturbed azeas will be reclaimed to <br />rangeland. <br />I'm sure that the Moffat County Planning Office and Planning Commission will be requesting similar <br />comments from the DOW concerning the permit application. Please contact me at (719) 655-2709 if you <br />have any comments or questions. Thank You. <br />egards, <br />~~~)1~~~ ~~-~. <br />Timothy M. Sca:yyrt~ <br />Geologist ~/.JI <br />
