Box J <br />Akron, CO 80720 <br />RE: Need for a stormwater Permit <br />Akron Ready Mix <br />Washington County <br />Dear Ms. Darrell: <br />Op ~ <br />ti~ <br />~~ <br />r <br />Colorado Deputment <br />of Public Halrh <br />and Fnvitotunent <br />Thank you for your letter of April 14, 1997, regarding the need for a stormwater permit for a sand and <br />gravel mining operation. I apologize for the delay in responding to you. <br />The Division has determined that a stormwater permit is not required for some small sand and gravel <br />mining operations in dry stream beds, if the following criteria aze met: <br />-All mining operations must be within the stream channel <br />-There cannot be an established haul road <br />-Equipment, supplies, etc. cannot be stored on site <br />-No permanent major structures can be on site <br />-Mining only occurs for relatively short periods of time during the year <br />Given your description of the pit, it appears that a stormwater permit is not needed. Keep in mind that <br />any change in this situation would require application for a stormwater permit, at least 30 days prior to <br />any discharge taking place. <br />I appreciate your attention to this matter. If you have any further questions, please give me a call at <br />(303) 692-3596. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~ <br />Kathryn Dolan <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Permits and Enforcement Section <br />WATER QUALITY CONTROL DIVISION <br />
