Lee and Joyce Garman [/ <br />18176 Ward Creek Road <br />Cedaredge, CO 81413 <br />(970)856-7126 <br />5 s s"~ C .~i: y <br />:~~' ~Cf i _.. ~~~~ <br />G~~~~"~ ~ aoo~ <br />Subject: Objection to the Benson Brothers Red Shale Quarry in Coalby Canyon. <br />We wish to express our concern to the rock shale mining operation proposed by the <br />Benson Brothers in Coalby Canyon west of Cedaredge. Our main concem is with both <br />well and ground water. We have a well, as do many of our neighbors. IF Benson <br />Brothers are allowed to pump the quantity of water they say they will need for their <br />mining operation, what will that do to the water [able that our wells or located in? As for <br />ground water, we are downstream from the mine location and are concerned about the <br />effect this operation could have on the quality of ground water flowing through our <br />property. <br />We have a great concern for the aesthetic effects of the proposed mine. Benson Brothers <br />plan to mine the ridge off a beautiful hill that is a landmark in the area and visual for <br />many miles. Not only will that be an eyesore to the community but could be hazardous <br />for the homes located at the base of that ridge. <br />Flooding has previously been a problem in that area when heavy rain fell in a short time <br />frame. If the natural valleys and ridges are mined off and the natural slope is replaced <br />with a larger area that has been reclaimed in a 2:1 ratio, as required by the State, this will <br />give and even larger area which will all drain off in one direction, leading to an even <br />greater threat of flooding. <br />As homeowners living in Coalby Canyon we wish to state our strenuous objections to this <br />operation and request that you deny this permit. We wish to be made a party to the <br />proceeding, we wish to be on the mailing list, and would like for apre-hearing <br />conference to be held in Cedaredge. Please have the pre-hearing conference include a <br />tour of the site to which all parties are included. Please schedule a hearing on the <br />application, for all the reasons stated in this protest, and set the hearing in Delta or Grand <br />Junction, a location convenient to the proposed project site. <br />Sincerely, ~ ~Gi_~?~-w-a-~ <br /> <br />
