Louisiana <br />Denver, Colorado 80222 <br />Re: BLM Olathe Pit <br />File N M-86-031 <br />09 <br />Dea r -~4r--H#ner~ <br />I have completed Iqy adequacy review of the 110 permit application for the BLM <br />Olathe Pit and have a few questions and comments which I have organized on an <br />exhibit-by-exhibit basis below. Any exhibit or part thereof not mentioned is <br />considered adequate for Board approval during the scheduled April 23-24, 1986 <br />meeting. Please respond to this letter at your earliest convenience, but <br />certainly by no later than April 18, 1986. In this way, I can review your <br />responses and comment, if necessary, prior to the Board meeting. This <br />application can, most probably, go to the Board as a "no problem" matter. <br />As always, before the Board can consider this application, I will need to <br />receive, review and approve the proofs of publication and notifications to <br />the BLM and all adjacent landowners (if any). Please send me these items as <br />soon as they are available. <br />Exhibits B and C <br />1. What will be the locations of the topsoil stockpiles on the permit <br />G~%~ area? These stockpiles should be placed well away from the active <br />mining area (but within the permit area) and kept out of drainage <br />areas. The locations can either be described or shown on a copy of the <br />map. <br />What perennial grass cover crop will be seeded on the topsoil <br />stockpiles? Please give species, seeding method and seeding rates. <br />3. What is the estimated life of this mining operation? <br />~/ 4. Although your final mining configuration is quite clear, the depth of <br />/~ mining is difficult to estimate from your plan. Please clarify this <br />depth of mining. <br />423 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203 Tel. (303) 866-3567 <br />z <br />
