The operator had requested <br />to be placed in temporary cessation for the next five years due to lack of demand for <br />their product. <br />The site is a large phased 112 sand and gravel operation located approximately 8 miles <br />north east of Hanover Colorado. Present during the inspection was Mr. James Barnes, <br />production supervisor. As stated the site is a phased 112 with a total of 299.78 acre <br />permit and a maximum of 64 acres to be affected at any given time. The total affected <br />area at the time of the inspection was approximately 7 acres. <br />There was a small trailer and a couple of water stage container located along the North <br />side of the active pit area. A small properly stored fuel storage tank was also noted <br />west of the small trailer. A small screen and conveyer system utilized to remove the sand <br />was also noted north of the active mining area. The high wall measuring approximately 15 <br />feet in height extending around the pit area was also observed. High wall was stable and <br />no signs of surface failure were observed. Due to its location, are more prone to wind <br />erosion than other natural features. All of the drainage from the affected area is <br />captured in the pit. Permit boundary markers and sign properly posted. <br />The site is fully warranted to affect 64 acres with a warranty of $243,000.00. With the <br />current affected area of only 7 acres, there is more than adequate warranty to cover the <br />current affected area of approximately 7 acres. The Division has approved the request to <br />be in temporary cessation. As clearly spelled out in the approval letter, the operator <br />must notify the Division in writing if plans change during the next five years to <br />commence operation. <br />The operation is in compliance with the approved reclamation plan <br />I & E Contact Address <br />cc <br />NAME: MR.
