BOX 857 <br />® PUEBLO, COLORADO 81002 <br />(303) 56 18350 <br />March 26, 1985 <br />Mined Land Reclamation <br />423 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />RE: Annual Report MLR Permit Ik77-573 ~ .- ;Jijr <br />Valco, Inc. - Pueblo West Pit <br />, <br />Dear Sirs: <br />Valco annual-report of the above referenced pit. <br />1. Stage II mining was continued in 1984. 9.9 acres were <br />mined beginning at the eastern edge of the 1983 mining area. Area, <br />580 feet wide, .900 feet long with one corner of the area 335'x270' <br />not mined as of yet. <br />2. Reclamation in Stage I was almost done with dirt hauled in for <br />sloping. Lake was pumped down and sloping was being finalized. Water turned <br />down river caused excess seepage and this in turner caused all the dirt sloping <br />to slip into lake. We have now placed concrete rip rap along shore line <br />under the water. This will be covered with dirt to complete sloping. We <br />have about 20% of the shore to finish with the sloping on Stage I~. We have <br />sloped about 300' on the south bank of Stage II. <br />3. We are going to move our larger trees from the area we have yet <br />to mine to the banks of the ponds in stage one. This would complete that <br />reclamation. <br />4. 1985 mining year - We will mine approximately ten acres in <br />Stage II and III. We will complete the reclamation in Stage I. <br />5. Our mining schedule has changed this past nine months Eor the <br />for the following reasons: <br />(a) The area in Stage II for the last nine months has not had as much <br />gravel depth, therefore, we are using more surface area. <br />(b) We assumed the assets of Fountain Sand 6 Gravel, so our <br />usage of gravel from this pit the last half of 1984 <br />increased. <br />ROCKY FORD LAMAR CANON CITY <br />
