<br />~. ~obe,r~- ,4 r-4-t. ~ <br />~- ~Qa 7 <br />Colorado Mine Land Reclamation Board <br />723 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />Gentlemen: <br /> <br />27 October, 1977 <br />~~u'~~:~'~'~,9f= <br />CCT 3? 1977 <br /> <br />With regard to the Castle Concrete miring permit <br />applications for the Synder, Queen's Canyon and <br />Pikeview quarries, I offer the following objec- <br />tions: <br />1, Failure to provide a satisfactory reclamation <br />plan. <br />Explanation: The "general reclamation plan" <br />provided in the application is contrary to the <br />evaluation and recommendations of U.S. Forest <br />representative Donald Nielson,. <br />Specifically, the plans <br />and neglect the varying <br />the three quarries, (b) <br />mulching techniques for <br />call for drilling holes <br />do not provide for anima <br />from being eaten. <br />are (a) not site specific <br />geoecological conditions of <br />do not provide for specia~. <br />different sacpes, (c) de not <br />for planting seed, and (d) <br />it barriers to keep new growth <br />2.Unavailability of Reclamation plans for public <br />evaluation. <br />Explanation: The details of the reclamation plans <br />have been stamped "confidential". Although the Boecrd <br />may nnuknow what is in those plans, there has been no <br />public disclosure. <br />Castle Concrete should make public these economically <br />unimportant facts and give the public an extension of <br />time in which to respond. The preliminary rejection <br />of the applications has, of course, only muddled th~~ <br />final date for public input, <br />One can only wonder about the intent of putting <br />confidential labels on reclamation plans, and the <br />implication .to defraud the people of Colorado SprinS~s. <br />
