W~ LAMS FORK COMPANY ~ <br />October 23, 1989~~A~~a.~ <br />CERTIFIED P568142124 OCT ? ~ 1989 <br />MINED Lldi~e' <br />Mr. Fred Banta RFf,;~AMATION i~i~/i.Fe~.'ii <br />Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division <br />215 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Dear Fred: <br />Subject: Annual Sand and Gravel Operation for 1988-89, and Notice of Intent <br />to Continuing Mining Operations (Permit No. M-84-168). <br />Enclosed is our 1988-89 Sand and Gravel Operation map and annual fee payment <br />($350). The Williams Fork Company intends to continue mining operations into <br />1990. A brief discussion of our 1989 mining activity follows. The map shows <br />the surveyed location and number of acres which have been actively mined (7.2 <br />acres) and/or partially disturbed (9.2 acres) through October 5, 1989. The <br />partially disturbed acres include topsoil stripped areas and vehicle traffic <br />areas. At the current time, the revised (April 1989) mining limits should not <br />change through August of 1990. However, if additional sand and gravel <br />production is required in 1990, the proposed stripping limits should include <br />the remainder of mining area number 2 (as shown on the Exhibit C-Map) and may <br />effect the extreme southern edge of area 3. <br />No additional acres have been reclaimed to date. However, the .43 acre ditch <br />seeding planted in fall 1986, continues to be dominated by targeted perennial <br />grasses and shrubs with similar cover and species composition as reported in <br />last years annual report. <br />There were no fertilizers, organic materials nor soil conditioners used in <br />1988-1989. Topsoil removed during our pit advance in 1989 was placed on our <br />existing topsoil stockpile. This stockpile (.7 acres) will be re-stabilized <br />and seeded in 1989. The plant species to be seeded appear in Table-3 of our <br />permit. <br />The Williams Fork Company proposes to affect approximately 2.5 additional <br />acres in the coming year. As stated above it would be in area 2 and the edge <br />of area 3. <br />The effective date for this information is October 5. 1989. <br />P.O. Box 187 Craig, Colorado 81626 (303) 824-4401 <br />
