Rex M & Sharon A Hiner 11 Austin Road Lamar Colorado 81052 Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety Department of Natural Resources 1313 Sherman Street Room 215 Denver Colorado 80203? ATTN Michael Gunningham August 18, 2010 CE"" l . 1?1?Ld610r1 ?; , ,;,,,a?.nations, RE: Greeley Pit M-1977-151 Gentlemen: It is my understanding the DRMS Permit M-1977-151 for the Greeley Pit covers the total acreage owned by R M Hiner Construction Company Inc at 2220 '0' Street in Greeley, Weld County, Colorado. I have marked the same with a yellow marker on the enclosed property map. The names of the surface owners of record within 200 foot of the proposed mining area would be Hiner Construction. The Cache La Poudre River is the southern boundary of the land and Bucklin Equipment owns land to the south of the river. There are two structures within 300 foot of the proposed mining area: DCP Midstream has the Strong 6-31 well pipeline which leaves the well site and goes east to the east property line of Hiner's property. I have enclosed a signed Damage Waiver Agreement between R M Hiner Construction Company Inc and DCP Midstream. Xcel Energy has an overhead electric line within 300 foot of the proposed mining area which provided electricity to.former mining batch plants in years past. In.the fall of 2009 Xcel Energy did an electric relocation at the expense of Hiner Construction to move electric poles, lines, ect. back to the-current location which is past 200 foot of the proposed mining area. Hiner Construction is, still awaiting the receipt of the signed Damage Waiver Agreement from Xcel Energy and upon receipt, will forward to your -attention. The existing roadway will be used to :access the area and I have marked the map with orange marker showing this existing roadway. The material extraction will be from the south-southwest direction to the north- northeast direction. Stockpiling of topsoil, ect. will be north of the proposed mining area, south of the north 40 acre lakes south boundary, marked green on map. The proposed mining area is on the east end of the south 21.2 acre lake, marked pink on map, approximately 300 feet north/south and 600 foot east/west. We will leave!,a dike along the present end of the lake approximately 50 foot wide and dig that portion last. We anticipate the mining period to take 2 to 3 years to complete and reclamation of the area another 3 to 4 years to total probably 7 to 8 years. This work will all be done as one phase.
