The project <br /> is located at Placer Gulch at latitude 37 degrees 55 minutes, and <br /> longitude 107 degrees 36 minutes in San Juan County, Colorado. <br /> The project consists of consolidating hard rock mining <br /> tailings from upland and wet areas into a confined and stabilized <br /> location. The resulting consolidated material will be protected <br /> from leaching contaminating materials into the surface and <br /> groundwater system. Approximately 0 . 7 acre of waters of the <br /> United States will be temporarily impacted by the removal of <br /> contaminated tailings . The surface flows will be restored after <br /> cleanup, and the associated fringe wetland vegetation is expected <br /> to return in a cleaner environment . <br /> The Chief of Engineers has issued nationwide general permit <br /> number 26 which authorizes the discharge of dredged or fill <br /> material in waters of the United States for headwaters <br /> discharges . Your project can be constructed under this authority <br /> provided the work meets the conditions listed on the enclosed <br /> information sheets and the special conditions listed below: <br /> 1 . This permit requires that all other required authorizations <br /> must be obtained by the applicant prior to commencement of work. <br /> 2 . Wetlands and wet areas outside of the immediate work area <br /> shall be visibly marked to prevent equipment from disturbing <br /> them, and to prevent their use for parking or temporary storage . <br /> 3 . The construction workers shall be instructed about the <br /> requirement to avoid impacting areas not specifically authorized <br /> by this permit . <br /> This permit verification will be valid until January 21, <br /> 1997 . You should contact this office if work will extend beyond <br /> this date . <br />
