Mascot Placer Operation. Located neaz Section 24, <br />Township 6 South, Range 77 West, 6`h Principal Meridian. <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />I am writing this letter with much concern over Everist Materials, LLC acquiring the 112 <br />reclamation permit. If seems that the next step is the set up of a crushing plant. In the <br />past there has been a great concern from the residents that live on Tiger Road that truck <br />traffic would increase dramatically. Tiger Road is a residential community with many <br />bicyclists and pedestrians with children and is a link to the Colorado Trial, which is used <br />throughout the year. <br />The citizens of this community have never argued the past 110 permits and all agree that <br />there is a need for these resources. But all agree that having a crusher in this area is out <br />of the question. There has been much o opp sition from previous contractors trying to <br />acquire a permit to crush aggregate material. <br />Tiger Road is a very rural road with narrow sections and poor sub surface condition. As <br />to the wildlife habitat, the Swan Valley is a major migration route for the local elk herd. <br />To my knowledge there has not been a wildlife impact study. It is evident that wetlands <br />have been impacted by previous efforts with little regazd to the surrounding habitat. <br />The 110 Permit seems to be working well with the surrounding open space and out back <br />areas. Residents~o not argue the extraction of the tailings but will oppose the set up of <br />any sort of crushing operations. The current Summit County Commissioners are awaze <br />of the past public concern and I would hope that the Division of Minerals and Geology <br />will take a close look at future intentions. <br />Sincerely, <br />~ ~ \~~ <br />Tony Hanis <br />pPC <br />G~ <br />P.O.
