INC. <br /> 201 Centennial St..Suite 406 <br /> Glenwood Springs, Colorado 81601 <br /> (303)945.4958 <br /> September 21, 1984 <br /> SEP <br /> Mr. Jim Herron, Reclamation Specialist C�INED1ANDMinD <br /> 423ed Land CentennRallBuildongDivision C010• Dept ofA+af•M��T��°v�lV1,;IpN <br /> 1313 Sherman Street ��0tes <br /> Denver, CO 80203 <br /> Dear Jim: <br /> In line with our discussions on the light use road extension <br /> technical revision request that I submitted on August 15th, <br /> submitted herewith is the design information you requested. <br /> Attached are three copies of the road location map and center- <br /> line profile. The centerline is staked at 100 ' intervals and <br /> the profile and cross-sections were surveyed in by Schmueser <br /> & Associates, Inc. The grade is almost constant and the grade <br /> average is 7.14% . <br /> You will note that the road leads to one drill pad between the <br /> two proposed gas well locations. We have been advised that we <br /> can reach the desired locations in the coal seams by directional <br /> drilling from this one pad location. This will eliminate <br /> constructing roads around the open alpine meadow where the <br /> vertical projections of the well locations are indicated on the <br /> map. <br /> This road location is so close to the top of the ridge that the <br /> run-off from rain storms or snow melt is minimal . The four culvert <br /> locations are where springs (seeps) exist. We will use 18" <br /> culverts to minimize blockage at the four locations . <br /> Dr. Wayne Cook and Tom Colbert have collected vegetation and soil <br /> samples along the road location. In conjunction with Doug Bowman <br /> they are preparing the reclamation plan. <br /> We had a cultural resources survey conducted along this access <br /> road in 1979 by Grand River Institute as part of a core drilling <br /> program planned at that time. I am enclosing excerpts of that <br /> report that pertain to this road section. <br />
