Dept. of Natural Resources <br /> Mined Land Reclamation Board <br /> 1313 Sherman, Room 723 <br /> Denver, CO 80203 <br /> Re: Bestway Paving Company and Gilsabind Convidar <br /> Application for Mining Permit <br /> Gentlemen: <br /> I have reviewed the original plan submitted by this company very <br /> carefully. I have also reviewed their most recent plan, which, <br /> by the way, is not on file in the Weld County Clerk and Recorder' s <br /> Office, but is available in the Weld County Board of Commissioner ' s <br /> Office. This letter is to implore you to deny the permit and I <br /> submit the following reasons : <br /> 1. It is my firm belief that it is impossible <br /> to conduct a mining operation of this type <br /> in the middle of a residential neighborhood <br /> without severe impact on the quality of life <br /> of the residents. <br /> 2. I do not believe that sufficient studies <br /> have been conducted regarding air pollution, <br /> water usage, earth stability and noise. <br /> In fact, I find none in the current file. <br /> 3. I find discrepancies in the Operations <br /> Standards as set forth by the Weld County <br /> Board of Commissioners and the plan now <br /> submitted. <br /> 4 . The file which I have reviewed in the office <br /> of the Weld County Board of Commissioners <br /> does not contain information regarding the <br /> three lawsuits presently pending in the Weld <br /> County District Court against Bestway Paving <br /> Company and centered around the affected land, <br /> but perhaps that is not a necessary part of <br /> that file. <br /> I hereby urge you to carefully consider the above and deny <br /> the application for an open pit mining operation by Bestway <br /> Paving Company and Gilsabind Convidar. <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> Mauna S. Reed <br /> 415 35th Ave. Court <br /> Greeley, CO 80631 <br />
