We appreciate the opportunity t0 review this submittal aS it relates to the South <br />' Bin Himmelmann Platte Rivet. <br />Ciry of Denier t <br />B. H.

The applicant has stated that no mining will occur within 400 feet of the South <br />Ciry of Deriver platte lover channel without approval by the Urban Drainage and Flood Control <br />"`"a "'°"°" District (District .

The setbacks have to be measured <br />clry of Darner * from the to of eXLStln b <br />' John Pareake R P g ank, or from the top of master plan bank, whichever is <br />Gry of lwrore LL farthest away from the river.

This IS especially important along the west bank of the river at the McKay <br />' Richard Sheehan w <br />Jenerson c°unry e ~ Road and 104th Avenue bridges. Preliminary plans call for new longer bridges. <br />James Sulliran ~~ TheIefore, the mining and reclamation setbacks need to start from the master <br />Douglas Counry i <br />Elaine Valente ° plan channel bank alignment ('ie., proposed west side bridge abutments), not the <br />"dams c°"nry w 100-foot.minimum setback as shown on Exhibit C-2. <br />' 2. On Exhibit C-2, Muting Plan Map, the Phase lA and 1B azeas show a note that <br />reads "no mining within 35' of the top bank S. Platte River." The minimum <br />setback allowed is 100 feet with both riverbank and pitside bank protection. A <br />variance maybe allowed if the applicant can guarantee that they mine and <br />immediately reclaim the area within the 100-foot setback during one low flow <br />' season (generally October through March). <br />pleat6ryw4roum Q <br />
