DENVER VVATER <br />1600 West 12th Avenue • Denver, Colorado 802043412 <br /> <br />Division of Reclamation <br />Mining and Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />RE: Reclamation Pit Number 1, Permit No. M-1977-153 <br />Denver Water, as co-owner and permittee of Reclamation Pit No. 1, Permit M-1977-153, <br />submits the following Annual Report and fee. <br />Upon receiving the Final Notice dated March 3, 2008 I investigated and determined that <br />the original request for report and annual invoice were not received by the permittee <br />contact at Denver Water. Mr. Jim Dupler has provided a fax of the form which is <br />enclosed. <br />Reclamation Pit No. 1, also known as the Hazeltine Pit, is owned by Denver Water and <br />South Adams County Water and Sanitation District (South Adams). As explained in my <br />letter of January 30, 2007 the permit for the Hazeltine Pit No. 1 was amended in 2004 to <br />include four additional areas. The Pit is not as distinguishable as it once was because the <br />embankment between the Road Runner's Rest II Pit (Permit No. M-1979-195) and <br />Hazeltine Pit has been removed. The plan is for the two properties to be combined into <br />one large "cell" as part of the construction of a larger reservoir project. <br />Denver Water's contract with Warren Cruise and Associates to sort and remove materials <br />remaining in the Hazeltine and Road Runner's Rest II Pits is ongoing, having been <br />renewed in January of 2008. A Report of the amount of material removed as of <br />December 31, 2007 was included with the Annual Report for Permit No. M-1979-195 <br />and is enclosed for your information. Because of the current economic conditions it has <br />been difficult to remove significant quantities of marketable material from the combined <br />area, and our earlier estimate of completing removal of the material by the end of 2008 <br />was probably too aggressive. <br />Because the Road Runner's Rest II and Hazeltine properties are now considered as one <br />operation it would be appropriate to merge the properties into a single Permit. I will be <br />discussing the requirements for such Permit with your office. A map showing the two <br />properties is enclosed. <br />Denver Water check number 00171754 in the amount of $791 to cover payment of the <br />annual fee is enclosed. <br />CONSEZVE <br />Phone 303-628-6460 • Fax No. 303-628-6478 March 14, 2008 <br />Patricia L.
