iii iiiiiiiiiiiii iii <br />January 12, 1977 <br />TKr. Top Ledbetter <br />DPC Ceramics, Inc. <br />515 South Ninth Street <br />P. 0. Bor. 110 <br />Canon Citq, Colorado 81212 <br />&E; Clay Operation - Jefferson County <br />Our File No. HB-76-7 <br />Dear Mr. Ledbetter: <br />We have received the new applieatioa materials for your clay operation. <br />Your maps need to be changed to reflect nine acres of affected li:nd. <br />This can be done ort the nape submitted earlier. <br />We called Hr. Beaaetts end met him on the Bite January 7, 1977, t:o <br />sea Lhe nature of the area and the problems you encounter in rec].fma- <br />tion. We agree that the 70o sandstone faces would be inpracticel. to <br />cover and vegetate and feel that they could remain as ie. Tha bEmch <br />areas, however, could benefit from soma grading to remove the wants <br />pi Les and ridges, and could be revegetatad. The natural vegetation <br />has encroached in some areas even with the lack of topsoil and i.t is <br />our opinion that vegetation would grow an these bench areas. <br />You need to reconsider your commertte in paragraph 2-g o! your applica- <br />tion, and devise •ome type of a reclamation plan. Tba area would not <br />be unusable after your mining opesation is completed since it is possible <br />to revegetate the erase lying east of the •aadetona faces. <br />Be certain in your readdress of Section 116 that you cover every sub- <br />section. If your operation is not applicable to nay particular item, <br />such ae 116-1-C, Earth Demo, a simple statement to that effect is all <br />that is wcesaary. <br />In addition to the reclamation information we need a letter from .Teffer- <br />eon County or the City of Golden, which ever hoe ~uriedictioa of the <br />area, stating that the operation is in conformance with local lawn. <br />
