Additional Page <br /> RECEIVED 2000 Annual Report <br /> JAN 0 5 2001 Daniels Sand Pit #2 <br /> M-73-007-SG <br /> Division a,Walla,$BadGa91a9V Transit Mix Concrete <br /> Anniversary Date: January 7 <br /> Overview of Permit Year: During the 2000 operating year there was a great deal of activity at this site. <br /> This was primarily due to the very active construction market throughout the Colorado Springs area. <br /> Mining proceeded nearly through Phase 3E as well as into Phase 4E. Phases lE and 2E are very nearly <br /> completed with mining. Very little change occurred on the West Side of Academy Boulevard other than <br /> continued backfilling of the northern area. <br /> Annual Report Maps: The annual report maps for this year are very little different from last year's map <br /> due to the lack of change in the actual areas affected. The only major change was the area contained <br /> within active mining on the east side of Academy. Thar area became more compressed in Phase 3E and <br /> expanded northward in the vicinity of the boundary between Phase 1E, 2E, and 4E. <br /> There is one additional map provided in this report. This map more closely describes the Schlage <br /> Lock Groundwater Remediation program being conducted on Transit Mix property. This map is <br /> provided as a clarification that arose during an inspection late in the permit year. The Division expressed <br /> a concern about this facility and whether adverse effects might occur with nearby mining. At about the <br /> same time this annual report was submitted a technical revision was also submitted, as requested by the <br /> Division. This revision provides the details regarding this plan and why no adverse effects should occur. <br /> These facilities are not affected land, according to the definition in the Rules and Regulations, because <br /> these facilities are not a result of the mining operation. These facilities are required as part of a ground <br /> water contamination treatment program being conducted by Schlage Lock whose plant is located about <br /> a mile east of this site. Transit Mix allowed the remediation to occur on their property because it was <br /> considered to be the best place to conduct this treatment with respect to groundwater flows and the <br /> contaminated groundwater plume. The technical revision is required because the facility is within the <br /> permit boundary, although not affected land. <br /> Affected Lands: The amount of affected land has not changed significantly since last year. <br /> Revegetation: The site is stable and is not subject to erosion. <br /> Expected Activity (2001): Mining will proceed through the remaining portions of Phase 3E and then <br /> continue to move eastward into Phase 4E. Few changes will occur on the west side. <br /> Bonding: This operation is covered by a corporate bond. <br /> Transit Mix Concrete 2000 Annual Report M-73-007-SG Daniels Sand Pit #2 Page 1 of 1 <br />
