Re: Dowe Flats Mining and Reclamation Project, Southdown, Inc.
Dear Preston,
Thank you for the meeting on Monday, October 31, 1994. I appreciate your attendance as
well as that of Curt Parker and Wayne Ellis from BDOT, and Jeff Moline from POSD.
Representing Southdown was John Lohr, Gerald Anderson, Darrel Buffington, Don Van
Buskirk, and Mike Figgs.
We discussed the following technical items of interest to BDOT and POSD:
1. conveyor alignment from cement plant to Ute Highway
2. haul road alignment from cement plant to Ute Highway
3. filling a gravel pit in the haul road corridor, starting before the end of November
4. constructing a bridge pier and abutments for the haul road crossing on St. Vrain Creek,
starting before the end of November
5. constructing three box culverts and one bridge crossing on the four irrigation ditches
north of Ute Highway for the haul road, starting before the end of November. These
ditches are Palmerton, Rough and Ready, Highland (which requires a bridge because
of the large size of the ditch), and Supply ditches respectively, from south to north
6. local access easements after the vacation of County Road 49
Southdown wants to fill in the gravel pit (as described in the grading permit), construct the
St. Vrain bridge pier and abutments (as described in the floodplain permit), and construct
the four irrigation ditch crossings while the water table is low and the ditches are dry during
the winter months.
The actual grading and construction for the road bed on the haul road will not will begin
until March or April of 1995. We also anticipate a similar time frame for construction of
the cross members and road bed on the St. Vrain Creek bridge.
