Baldri ge RE: M1787-040 Costilla Pit <br />Dear fAs. Baldrige, <br />OH. Phone 589-5105 <br />Res. Pwhone 589-6868 <br />R/~ <br />RF~~Mq ~~ j 1yB~ <br />r~O~~~SU <br />In reference to your adequacy letter dated March 6, 1987, the <br />following is submitted: <br />1. The 4vildlife and Soil Conservation Service's comments. <br />must admit that it was my error that kept these exhibits out <br />of the original applications. I failed to include them in <br />the application, although they were prepared and were on my <br />des'r, for inclusion. I apologize for my carelessness. <br />I}~}7g.,w,i.11 not be close to the Costilla River.~]~No excavation <br />11 be done w1'th-fn 506- eef t-~E e aver Channel) There is <br />virtuaIly_no way the river will be able 'tb'-break into the pit. <br />Ground water even during the"Spring will not rise to the level <br />of the pit floor. Due to the permeability of the material in <br />the bottom of the pit, surface drainage will not accumulate <br />in the pit excavation. <br />3. Overburden will be stockpiled adjacent to topsoil stockpiles <br />and will be placed on the areas to be reclaimed prior to <br />stockpile replacement. The amount of overburden stockpiled <br />will be dependent on the materials to be produced. Aggregate <br />products for use on County roads require a certain of material <br />with plasticity index that can only be obtained by inclusion <br />of the overburden during crushing. <br />4. Also enclosed is a more legible copy of the proposed mine plan. <br />It would appear that we cannot fulfill the publication requirements <br />for this permit by the March Hoard meeting. Please postpone consideration <br />by the Board until the April meeting. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jo T. Ungefug <br />eer <br />
