iiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiii <br />999 <br />September 18, 1978 <br />Mr. Robert Marsh <br />Ideal Basic Industries <br />P.O. Box 1949 <br />Fort Collins, Colorado 80521 <br />Rti: Portland Quarry <br />Our File /77-344 <br />llear Bob: <br />I vent to thank you for your recant eubmieaioae. I have just complete <br />a through review of this and previous materials and feel that we now <br />have a good application with a good reclamation plan. There are just <br />a few clarifications needed and than we will be ready to present this <br />application to the Board. We would also like to advise you of banding <br />costa the staff will recommend to the board. <br />(1) How does the <br />fit into the <br />will Ideal c. <br />be ready for <br />the sequence <br />operations? <br />quarrying of Che~l.d Concrete quarry area <br />overall mining timetable?

WYht <br />measures will ba taken to aseivn minimum disturbance <br />to Beaver Creek? Can you give ae a crone section from <br />the cut to the Break? <br />(3) Will Ideal agree to provide the Board with channel <br />configuration and d~aigu for Bur Creek before any <br />divareian ie started ( in about 25 years)? <br />(4) (4) Banding <br />The staff will use the currant disturbance of 230 Acres <br />of major disturbance end 58 Acres of moderate disturbance <br />to determine floating band costa. In reviewing the <br />reclamation timetable, it appears as if the total disturbed <br />acreage might dacreeae after 1985 once a portion of the <br />active overburden deposit site is reclaimed and the <br />reclamation sequence for cuts ie established. There ie <br />a possibility for reconsidering band at that time. For <br />
