Weld Countv Public Works Procosed Gravel Site — Ashbauah Pit Exoansion <br />Dear Sir or Madam <br />This is notice that the Weld County Public Works Department intents to apply for a mining <br />permit to expand our existing Ashbaugh Pit located 7 miles southwest of Raymer in Weld <br />County Colorado. The application proposes a total mining area of approximately 380 acres, <br />however, typical County operations utilize 20 acres at a time due to our intermittent mining and <br />stockpiling of sand and gravel. The Ashbaugh site is located in the southwest quarter of Section <br />15, T7N, R59W, of the 6' P.M, Weld County, Colorado. The Ashbaugh property is currently un- <br />irrigated rangeland and is used to pasture cattle. The gravel pit will be dry, not intercepting <br />groundwater. There are no watercourses in the proposed mining area. Enclosed is a <br />sitelvicinity map. <br />Upon receipt of State and local permits, the proposed site will begin operations in Summer, <br />2011. The operations will consist of removing, crushing, and stockpiling sand and gravel <br />materials for use on Weld County- maintained roads. The operation will be intermittent <br />depending on needs of the County. <br />If you have any questions, please call (970) 304 -6496. <br />Sincerely, <br />David Bauer <br />Weld County Engineer <br />Enclosure <br />pc: Ashbaugh Gravel Pit file <br />M ZAVE 13 4shbaughtDRMS permitV shbaugh- Historical- IetDOC <br />
