Edward N,. Gardner <br />940 South 10th Street <br />Grd. Jct., Colorado 81501 <br />Ref: Gravel Lease at Whitewater, Colo. <br />Dear Mr. Gardner: <br />This letter is in answer <br />tenden use of the nit area you <br />gravel is all dug out. Please <br />that current lease agreement. <br />Registered-Commercial <br />Charolais & Here/ord <br />Cattle <br />to your inquiry about our in- <br />now lease from us when the <br />make this letter a part of <br />!'Je are not aware of all the many requirments the Mate <br />of Colorado mzy impose on your business. !'Je do however, want <br />it clearly understood that this is our land and we do not in- <br />tend it to ever be any kind of a Public Area. At the end of <br />the gravel digging, in any area, we will use the ground and <br />lakes for our own private cattle ranch. VJe would like to be <br />informed of anything the Government requires you to do to our <br />land so that we can check its application to private rights. <br />' As we discussed, the lower pit area from Eangs Canyon up <br />to the rock dike you are building will be used as zn area for <br />over-burden as you clear the pit. We want this area sloped so <br />' that our cattle can get safely from the bluff to the river. <br />!9hen the pit is filled with overburden and available to us, we <br />plan to move our cattle feeding station to this area so that <br />' you may dig the gravel where we are now feeding. Roads to this <br />area will be the dike along the river and the road you are <br />building along the bottom of the bluff. These roads will have <br />to lead back to the dugway and over it so we will have access <br />' to thelower area from our fields and yard. It is our under- <br />standing that the rest of this lower pit area will become a <br />lake as large as the gavel bed allows, and we will want the <br />' over-burden from the unper pits placed into this area so as <br />to enlarr~e the feeding area as much as possible. <br />The upper pit area is to be your equipment and stockpile <br />area. The pit you have stopped digging in and get your water <br />out of may help us by providing a place to pump irrigation <br />~.vater out of during dry periods. <br />We will run cattle over all areas not being used by you <br />53 <br />150 -r- ~ a ~ 040 H I V ~' y <br />r <br />RALPH CRAIG <br />436-7168 <br />HERSCHEL REND RIC KSON <br />931-2805 <br />UNAWEEPCANYON <br />Whitewater, Colorado 81527 <br />
