Annual Report <br />PERMITEE NAME <br />PERMIT NO: <br />OPERATION NAME: <br />ANNIVERSARY DATE: <br />ANNUAL FEE DUE: <br />COUNTY: <br />The Regents of the University of Colorado <br />M-1981-302 <br />Deepe Farm Pit <br />April 20, 2010 <br />$791.00 <br />Boulder <br />From April, 2009 thru March, 2010, no additional mining or reclamation <br />activities have occurred on the Deepe Farm Pit mining area with the <br />exception of on-going weed management, as needed. Cattle grazing <br />activities have occurred on a portion of the pit site which has assisted in <br />keeping weeds under control. The University contracted for the services <br />of a goat herder to herd goats on portions of the property to assist in weed <br />management. These activities have proven to be very successful in the <br />management of weeds on the property. <br />The grasses on the property are thriving and weeds continue to be a <br />manageable issue on this Deepe Farm Pit site. Plant growth that had <br />been occurring at the edges of the levee embankment was largely <br />eliminated as per FEMA requirements. <br />In 2010-11, there.are no plans to disturb areas remaining within this <br />permit. However, if during our regular inspections we identify areas where <br />vegetative cover is sparse, re-seeding will occur as needed. On-going <br />weed management will also be undertaken, as appropriate. The <br />University.may continue grazing the site during the next year subject to <br />receiving adequate moisture to ensure the proper growth of vegetation. <br />No other activities are anticipated. <br />The University of Colorado has attached a check in the amount of $791.00 <br />to cover the cost of the annual fee. <br />We have attached a map delineating the current mining site area.
