Lamm <br />Governor <br />January 14, 1985 <br />Mr. J. R. Owen <br />Lincoln County <br />Lincoln County Courthouse <br />Hugo, Colorado 80821 <br />Re: Ten Lincoln County 110 Permit Applications File Nos. M-84-180 through <br />M-84-189 <br />Dear hlr. Owen: <br />I have received and reviewed your responses to my adequacy letier of <br />December 7, 1984 for the applications for the ten Lincoln County pits <br />captioned above. You have generally responded adequately to my questions, <br />with the exception of a few remaining questions that I will outline below. <br />First of all, enclosed please find a copy of your latest map submission for <br />ttte Jerry Withington Pit, file no. M-84-186. Although this snap helps to <br />clarify Lincoln County's plans for the site, the exact permit boundaries are <br />still difficult to ascertain from the map. The 3.5 or 5 acres proposed for <br />the permit area still neeD to be outlined on such a map. The area shown <br />within the stream between the dashed lines does not seem to measure out at <br />either Df these acreage figures. <br />Second, a statement demonstrating the County's legal right-to-enter the Jim <br />Larsen Pit, file no. hi-84-189 is still neeaed. A signed notarized affidavit <br />from the Chairman of the County Commissioners will suffice for this purpose. <br />I note that there will be several inputs coming in from the Soil Conservation <br />Service concerning vegetation and soils data and revegetation recommendations <br />for areas in several of the pits. I feel that this information is, in most <br />cases, vital for the completion of the applications involved. Therefore, if <br />this information is not available before the scheduled January 23-24, 1985 <br />Board meeting, I suggest that you send me a written request for one last <br />continuance until the February 27-28, 1985 meeting (for the mine applications <br />still active). <br />I presume that the S.C.S. inputs will include a recommendation for the <br />stabilization planting of all topsoil stockpiles. If you have not made such a <br />request of the S.f,.S, I suygest you do so now, since I still need such a <br />commitment. <br />423 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203 Tel.
