Shroba and P. O. Wickle.in, precare3 by the Colorado Geo- logical Survey in 1972, as required by H.E. 1525, mapped ag- gregate reserves, but not slay, in Pueblo as well as other front range counties. The bread classification for most of Pueblo County is of the Mesozoic Era - ti0 to 225 million years old consisting of continental and marine sedimentary rock. The report states: "The region east of the mount front once was mantled by an extensive tertiary alluvial plain that blanketed the entire Great Plains area. In the Colorado Piedmont, this thick sedimentary cover has been removed by the action of the South Platte and Ar};ansas Ri~:er systems, exposing vast areas of Up- per Cretaceous (latest Mesozoic) shale, claystone and in*_erbedded sandst~~ne and limest.one." I would be glad to accompany you an_i/or any member of the staff or Commission en an inspection of the site. Necessary arrangements would h•sve to be made with Fort Carson in .sd- vanca.
