Canyon Sand and Gravel <br />P..O. Box 4362 <br />Pagosa Springs, CO 81147 <br />Permit No. M-1988-057 <br />Division of Minerals and Geology <br />Dept. of Natural Resources <br />1313 Sherman St., Rm. 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />2003 ANNUAL REPORT <br />ht 2003 Canyon Sand and Gravel used up the stockpile that was excavated the previous <br />year until it was depleted in August. At that time we excavated again, having a <br />relatively small stockpile put up at the north end of the working area of the pit. The <br />excavation was done within the perimeters of the established boundaries of the north end <br />of the "lake" area. The excavation added about 50 more feet to south end of the length of <br />the north lake, which subtracted it from the stockpile area Lazge rocks were put into <br />place along the 1 to 3 slope of the inner banks. We used up the entire stockpile by the <br />end of October as space is becoming limited in the working azea. <br />We have been working on a revision to our Limited Impact 110 permit in order to <br />be able to stockpile just outside of the working area in an adjacent area of dry pasture, the <br />equivalence of approximately 1/2 acre, an exchange for the originally designated <br />stockpile area for sand that we did not use. We will then be able to finish the pit, and <br />create the island (or isthmas, if we leave the road in as it now is). The crusher sits here <br />and we will get another conveyor that can place the crushed gravel in stockpiles outside <br />of the "lake" on that comer of pasture that must be restored anyway. <br />The reclamation that has been done is more mature now so that the burins and dike are <br />growing established grass, and shrub growth has occun+ed along the stream side as well <br />as little pine trees. The azea is well protected from high water and any erosion. The past <br />2 years have seen extreme drought, but our project is looking good. <br />Enclosed is the annual fee of $281.00 <br />
