Shelton <br />Re: Notice of Intent to Continue Mining <br />Delta Sand and Gravel Co. <br />Permit ~~ 77-20, Pit ~p 1 <br />Dear Mr. Shelton: <br />Our anniversary date for this permit is March 28. Due to the <br />poor economic condition of the Delta County area our mining <br />operations were very limited during the past year. We continue <br />to operate in our Stage 1 area as outlined and accepted in our <br />conversion and amendment dated 1980. <br />During 1983 and 1984 extensive flooding of the Gunnison River <br />took place and after the 1983 flood the flood damage was cleaned <br />up and some temporary dikes were installed in order to prevent <br />re-occurance in 1984. L~'ater was much higher in 1984, but our pit <br />was not flooded nor any damage was experienced because of our <br />preventive action. <br />Annual report questions as outlined in Section 2:41 of the rules <br />and regulations are answered as follows: <br />1. Approximately 4 acres was mined of the final 8' in Stage 1. <br />See attached map. <br />2. No reclamation is required until mining in Stage 1 is complete. <br />3. Not applicable. <br />4. Not applicable. <br />5. Not applicable. <br />6. Not applicable. <br />7. Mining will continue in Stage 1 next year on the final 8'. <br />If economic conditions improve this year, we may move to <br />Stage 2, but this is not anticipated due to the closing of <br />six of our nine coal mines in the area and the reduction of <br />approximately 70% of the personnel in the remaining three mines. <br />8. Effective date of this information contained is March 20, 1985. <br />
