<br /> mixture is 8 lbs. of western wheatgrass, 8 lbs. of pubescent wheatgrass ,
<br /> 6 lbs. of sweet brome, and 2 lbs. of outside clover, this is the mixture
<br /> that was used by the Highway Department in revegetation on Vail Pass, and
<br /> has been quite successful . Ok, as far as bonding , the staff hasn' t had an
<br /> opportunity to inspect this 8.47 acres to determine the status of reclamation
<br /> if any and therefore feels if that until we can make an inspection it needs to
<br /> be included as affected acreage and uh, presumably the operator has moved into
<br /> phase 2 now, so we need to include that 3. 19 acres, so that amounts to approxi-
<br /> mately 11 .66 acres, and the other 2 areas, this is a floating bond and the bond
<br /> can be adjusted accordingly over time. Staff does recommend approval with a
<br /> floating bond set at $770 an acre for a total of $9000.
<br /> RW: Ok, and an NPD and that appears to be yet coming so that
<br /> RF: I believe, hir. Nottingham do you have your NPDES permit yet? Your discharge
<br /> BN: We do not have one on this operation - we are not required to have one on
<br /> this operation.
<br /> RF: Ok, I was under the understanding that you had made application for. . .
<br /> BN: No that was filing error we did.'not, ,
<br /> RF: Ok
<br /> RW: So eliminate that
<br /> RW: Ok, so are there any objections to the application.
<br /> RF: No, the uh, main reason this application was held up for a period it was , was
<br /> there was a uh, a problem with the operator obtaining a special use permit
<br /> and county approval from Eagle County: and Uh, there was a very long series of
<br /> negotiations, which were finally, that application essentially has been adequate
<br /> for considerable time and it was the county approval that was holding up this
<br /> presentation. and that has been solved.
<br /> SB or LB: Ok, Mr. Chairman, I would move then that a permit be granted to Nottingham
<br /> Sand and Gravel , File No. 77-343, for sand and gravel operation in Eagle County,
<br /> and bond be set at $9000.
<br /> K: Sir, excuse me, I represent the Rio Grande Railroad, and would like to say a
<br /> few words.
<br /> RW: Just a second, let ' s get the motion in. . .
<br /> K: Oh, I 'm sorry, I didn' t want
<br /> RW: Yeah, right
<br /> RW: Is there a second to that motion
<br /> Yes , I second that
<br /> RW: Ok, Ok, then the Board certainly, jsut tell us your name and uh the floor is
<br /> yours.
<br /> K: Ok, my name is Charles Kerd, I represent the Rio Grande Railroad and I think
<br /> that Mr. Nottingham know s we've had considerable correspondence with him,
<br /> with Eagle County over this application here at Avon, Colorado . the property
<br /> which is subject to the permit would have to be uh, our railroad would have to
<br /> be crossed to get into this property and there's a private crossing there
<br /> RF: The railroad is right here, the permit boundary runs like this.
<br /> RW: Where's the location approximately of the private crossing, the private acces
<br /> there across the railroad.
<br /> K: A railroad map but I didn ' t know how it would relate to this particular map
