GEiJE RAL INTRODUCTION: In early 1982 the Schmidt-Tiago Construction Company Office
in Colorado Springs discovered that no annual reports had been submitted to the
Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board as required by Section 116(1)(a) of the
Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Act of 1976. This oversight was caused by a lack
o£ in-company communication, a problem that hopefully has been entirely corrected.
Because Schmidt-Tiago Construction Company desires to comply with the law to the
best of their ability, we wish to submit the annual reports for the four operations
in E1 Paso County along with applicable annual report fees. The fees have already
been sent as of mid-March 1982.
Schmidt-Tiago has always tried to do their best to comply with the reclamation laws
and, as a matter of fact, was one of the first companies to obtain a permit under
the 1973 law even though little or no administrative capabilities existed to enforce
the law at its inception. We sincerely regret the oversight and hope you will find
the enclosed reports acceptable as meeting the requirements. We fully realize that
preparing an annual report is a constructive tool which, in effect, forces the
operator to review his permit at least once a year and see if he is on schedule and
in compliance. In effect, the tool forces a variety of self-monitoring that is both
useful and constructive in protecting land resources.
These annual reports cover the years 1978/79, 1979/80, 1980/81, and the current year
of 1981/82. In order to make the report simple all four years are combined into one
report narrative and map. However, the requirements for report content are met for
each year as best as can be done. Using this process an entire picture of what has
happened can be visualized more easily than if separate reports were to be submitted
for each of the four years.
