5. Similarly with Nyberg Road; Exhibit D indicates Pueblo County owns the road. <br />Please identify Pueblo County as the Nyberg landowner on Exhibit C, Sheet 2. <br />Response: Pueblo County the owner of Nyberg Road is now shown on Exhibit <br />C, Sheet 2. The map has been revised to show the ownership and the <br />address of the County Engineer/ Director of the Pueblo County <br />Public Works for verification if required. <br />6. There appears to be a discrepancy between Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 with respect to <br />the proposed permit boundary in the vicinity of the Douglas, Kirchner, Evans, and Stueve <br />properties. Sheet 2 suggests these four properties are in the permit boundary (bold <br />double- dot -dash line), whereas Sheet 1 indicates they are not. Please clarify which is the <br />case and revise the appropriate sheet. <br />Response: The properties owned by Douglas, Kirchner, Evans and Stueve are not <br />in the permit boundary. Sheet 2 of Exhibit C has been revised to show on the map <br />that they are excluded from the proposed permit boundary. <br />7. Rule 6.4.7(2)(a) requires water wells be located on the map (in Exhibit C) if <br />surface or groundwater systems are expected to be affected. The proposed later stage <br />mining is expected to expose groundwater as the Divisions understands it. A technical <br />revision is proposed to change the mining and reclamation plan at an as yet to be <br />determined future time. Technical revisions do not require public notice. Please revise <br />Exhibit C to identify and locate any groundwater wells within 600 feet of the proposed <br />permit boundary or add a statement to the map indicating "No groundwater wells are <br />located within 600 feet of the proposed permit boundary." <br />Response: 6.4.7 EXHIBIT G - Water Information states the following: <br />"(1) If the operation is not expected to directly affect surface or groundwater <br />systems, a statement of that expectation shall be submitted." <br />This operation is not expected to affect surface or groundwater systems, therefore <br />the applicant believes that the need to locate groundwater wells within 600 feet is <br />not necessary. This operation will not be excavated below the ordinary high water <br />table in any area of the permit, this will be a dry gravel pit. <br />8. Rule 6.4.3(g) requires the type and location of all significant structures within <br />200 feet of the affected area be shown on a map. Please identify the type and location of <br />structures particularly in the vicinity of the Douglas, Kirchner, Evans, Stueve, Smith and <br />Cawlfield properties. <br />Response: <br />The Applicant/Operator will show the owner's name, type of structures, and <br />location of all significant, valuable, and permanent man -made structures <br />contained on the area of affected land and within two hundred (200) feet of the <br />affected land on the Exhibit C Map please see Sheet 3 of 4 and sheet 4 of 4 for <br />details. <br />6.4.4 EXHIBIT D — Mining Plan <br />9. The proposed method of mining states groundwater will not be exposed and that the <br />bottom of the excavations will remain two feet above the water table. Given the current <br />
