Rationale for Approval Recommendation Page 72 Application for Stone Gravel Pit Permit No. M-97-089 Application indicates that applications for Stormwater Permit through CDPHE, WOCD, and equipment emissions permit through CDPHE, APCD, and APEN permit through CDPHE, APCD are pending. Application indicates that site is exempt from NPDES permits through CDPHE, WOCD, and site emission permit through CDPHE, APCD. Application indicates that road approach permit through Montezuma County Road Department is current. On 11/21/97, DMG received copy of letter from CDPHE, WOCD, indicating no record of application submittal for General Permit for Stormwater Discharges. BLM is the surface management agency, has reviewed the application, and has not indicated federal permits required for wildlife or archaeological issues. Applicant has voluntarily entered agreement with BLM which addresses protection of the archaeological site located within the proposed permit area. On 1/2/98, DMG received clearance from Colorado Historical Society, with recommended conditions. Information submitted under Notice of Intent to Conduct Exploration is confidential and not a matter of public record, as required by the Act and Rules and Regulations. Additionally, an NOI for Exploration activities at the site was determined by DMG and the Attorney General's Office to be unnecessary since activities at the site fit within the exemption provided by Rule 1.11131. Statement from Office of State Engineer, Division of Water Resources, did not indicate conflict with groundwater issues or additional permits required.
