Long <br />Division Dircaur <br />Byers, CO 80103 <br />RE: Possible Violation, Arapahoe County, Deer Trail pit, Permit No. M-88-090 <br />Dear Mr. Pipken: <br />On November 20, 1995 we conducted an inspection of your mine and found mining had occurred <br />and topsoil had been stored outside the permit area. <br />We believe this is in violation of C.R.S. 3432.5-116(4)(1) for failure to protect areas outside the <br />affected land from damage occurring during the mining operation and reclamation. <br />Therefore, we have found reason to believe a violation exists to Permit M-88-090 and the Law and <br />have scheduled this matter before the Mined Land Reclamation Board. <br />A Formal Public Hearing will be held during the January 2425, 1996 Board meeting for <br />consideration of possible violation. The hearing will be held in Room 318 of 1313 Sherman Street, <br />Denver, Colorado, beginning at 9:00 a.m. or as soon thereafter as the matter can be considered and <br />you will have the opportunity to be represented and heard. It will be reiterated that there is reason <br />to believe that you are in violation of the provisions noted above. <br />If the Board finds a violation at this hearing, it may issue a cease and desist order, assess a civil <br />penalty in the amount of $100.00 to $1000.00 for each day of violation or order the permit be <br />suspended, modified or revoked. In addition it may set the matter for consideration of forfeiture of <br />the $5000.00 financial warranty at this or a subsequent hearing. If you have evidence indicating that <br />the possible violations noted above do not exist or have been corrected, please provide it to us as <br />soon as possible or bring it to the hearing. <br />If you have any questions, please contact Christina L. Kamnikar. <br />Sincerely, <br />~py~MICHAEL B.
