Mid-Continent Limestone Quarry, Permit No. M-82-121 Dear Ms. Delaney: This letter is following up on our meeting yesterday regarding the possible violations at the Mid-Continent Limestone Quarry. We discussed first the corrective actions outlined in the Division's inspection report of the site visit on March 16, 1992. Mid-Continent Resources was by April 15, 1992, required to erect signs and markers at the mine site and to submit to the Division a plan for both the reclamation of the lower drainage Channel and for installation of a culvert at the upper access road. These items have been accomplished per your submittal of a plan yesterday and your statement that signs and markers were up on April 10, 1992. Mid-Continent and the Division then proceeded to discuss in detail the implementation of the corrective actions for the site. We agreed that by this month's Board Meeting date of April 22, 1992, Mid-Continent will submit a letter stating that the mine signs and markers were in place by April 10, 1992. In this same letter, Mid-Continent is also to include a commitment to both install straw bales in the drainage channel below the fines stockpile and commence the regrading of the fines stockpile benches for water diversion purposes. It was agreed that these activities would begin immediately, and that the Division would recommend to the Board that a Cease and Desist Order would be in effect at the quarry until these two corrective measures were completed. The Division and Mid-Continent further agreed that Mid-Continent will submit by May 15, 1992 hydrologic designs for the two proposed upland diversions, the proposed access road culvert, and any required riprapping. Mid-Continent is also to commit to installing these structures by May 29, 1992. In addition to these two items, Mid-Continent is also to commit to rotot111ing the crusher fines in the drainage channel below the stockpile, amending them with either peat moss or dry manure, and reseeding them, all by November 2, 1992.
