URP,L RESOURCES 423 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street ~ /~ Denver, CO. 80203 / ~S~s9 Dear Mr. Zalkind: ~ ~ ' R ',y qhn, fJ''''OY SUBJECT: 1983 ANNUAL MINING AND RECLAMATION P,EPORT AND MAP PERMIT 77-140 The following is our annual reclamation report and map for 1983- Also, I have included a summary of all of our reclamation efforts so far. The map will reflect all of the reclamation work we have done and include the work we plan on doing next year, 1983• Mining and Reclamation Plan for 1983 Mining in 1983 In 1983, we are planning on dredging our material, as our means for extracting pitrun material out of the pit. We experimented with this process last year, but did not get the production we had hoped for. With the purchase of some additional equipment and some changes on existing equipment we are now using, we think that next year this rnethod of extraction will prove both feasible and practical. Also in 1983, we hope that we will not be enlarging the pit area anymore. If the dredging process becomes more successful, we would then be extracting gravel to a greater depth, and would accordingly want to make a change in our mining and reclamation plan. If dredging is successful in 1983, then I will submit a technical revision for our reclamation plan in the summer of 1983 for your approval. If not, then our basic mining plan probably will not change. Total affected land would be less than one-half acre if dredging proves successful.
