• iiiiiiiiiiiniiiiii <br />LAFARGE I/irz CLVfc~c!'~n~G' May 2a, 2000 <br />Dear Neighbor. <br />The property on the enclosed maps is currently going through two separate permitting processes. <br />One is with the Colorado Division of Minerals and Geology and the other is with Larimer <br />County. <br />The Colorado Division of Minerals and Geology receives public comment through certified <br />letters, informal conferences, and a public hearing, if necessary. The enclosed public notice is <br />being sent to you as part of this process. <br />The Larimer County Special Review receives public comment through a neighborhood meeting, <br />planning commission hearing, and board of county commissioners hearing. For those of you who <br />attended the netghborhood meeting uu iviarcL :~, 2vv~i, iiidr~ j~ii fJ: yC G: C:.ii[: i:eut]. ':'e e i 8`rc <br />reviewed them and will be trying to incorporate some changes as we proceed through the <br />permitting process. Larimer County will send out notices for [he public hearings dates once they <br />are set. <br />Several issues were raised at the neighborhood meeting and the following studies are currently <br />being conducted via Larimer County`s request: <br />• Traffic impact study to address traffic patterns and road quality. <br />• Flood plain modeling to determine the appropriate locations of the stockpiles and plant and to <br />show that our operation will not impact the properties upstream or downstream. <br />• Air modeling to show that our operations will meet EPA, State, and County requirements for <br />dust, silica, etc. <br />• Weed control plan as per the new Larimer County Land Use Code. <br />One of the concerns voiced in the neighborhood meeting was the "attractive nuisance" that will <br />be created by' the reclamation of Phase 2 & 3 into a lake. We will be working with the Flatiron <br />Companies (property owner) over the next few years to look at alternate ways of reclaiming this <br />parcel (i.e. backfilling, wetlands, draining to the existing pit to the north, etc.). We will be <br />asking Larimer County and the Division of Minerals and Geology to incorporate this flexibility <br />into our permits. <br />If you would like to receive an update on the status of these studies or the entire permitting <br />process, please feel free to give me a call at (303) 657-4331. <br />Sincere) <br />Julie Goet emoeller <br />Senior Land Manager. <br />WESTERN MOBILE INC., a subsidiary of Lafarge Corporation <br />TECHNICAL SERVICES <br />1590 W. 12th Ave., Denver, Colorado 80204-3410 <br />Office: (303) 667000 Faz: (303) 657-4339 <br />
