Simpson <br />Suer Engineer <br />Seven I wine. RE <br />Dwnion Engmee~ <br />This letter concerns evaporation from the [3ent County Ready Mix pit, MLRD #M86-112. Ow <br />revic+v of information about your gravel pit indicates that it was constructed Ibllowing a 1986 <br />application to the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division. At that time (here was an old pond <br />+ahich was not to be involved in mining under the 1986 permit. The 1986 proposal called for a dry <br />pit to be located adjacent to the old pond. We understand that excavation has resulted in a wet pit <br />which incorporates the old pit. 71te differences be[+veen what was permitted and what was <br />constructed will require a new permit from MLRD and we understand you will be seeking such a <br />new permit. <br />\'/o have recently received a letter from John Singletary indicating that 1'ou +vould be joining one <br />of the ground water users associations for augmentation of your gravel pit. n follow up conversation <br />with Mr. Singletary has confirmed that you intend to submit a well permit application with evidence <br />of membership in a groundwater association by Nov. 1G, 1994. Colorado Revised Suuutcs, sec. 37- <br />90-137(1 1) et. seq., require well permits and augmcNa(ion for all graycl minin~~ operations +ahich <br />expose ground water to the atmosphere after January I, 1981. This letter is to smte that we shall <br />expect a reasonably acceptable permit application and substitute supply plan to be filed no later than <br />December 22, 1994, otherwise follow up enforcement action may become necessary. <br />1~~r look li~nvard to continuing to work with Me Singletary toward a resolution of ibis problem as <br />we await a detertination as to the acceptability of ground water association membership as a basis <br />of a Substitute Water Supply plan. <br />cc..lohn Singletary ~ <br />13ob Oswald, MLRD <br />Dan Neuhold.
