This is necessary because the current reclamation plan has failed <br />to establish adequate vegetation. The revision to the plan needs to identify how the City intends to <br />conduct reclamation of the site in a successful manner. The original deadline for this corrective action <br />was January 31, 2014. As I explained in my previous letter, we experienced a delay in receiving the <br />inspection report and we were unable to meet the January 31St deadline. <br />would like to request that an extension be granted to the corrective action deadline, moving it to <br />June 2, 2014. This would allow us sufficient time to prepare a researched and well planned revision to <br />our reclamation plan. As you know, reclamation at this site has proved challenging. The City intends <br />to enlist the help of a consultant that can apply their expertise to the development of a revised <br />reclamation plan. Please be assured that the City is committed to a successful reclamation of this site <br />and it is not our intention to delay the process. However, this additional time is necessary for the City <br />to be able to procure consultant services, conduct a field investigation with soil analysis, and prepare <br />recommendations for incorporation into the reclamation plan. <br />Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please feel free to contact me at (970) 244 -1542, or <br />Pauli @gicity.orf;. <br />Sincerely, <br />4� - <br />D.
