Rowe, Environmental Protection Specialist <br />CC: Division 2 Office; Dis 'ct 67 Water Commissioner <br />FROM: Don West, P.E. <br />RE: Barnett Pit, File No. M-1991-074 <br />Operator: Kiowa County <br />Contact: Debra Immer 719/438-5810 <br />Section 33, Twp 185, Rng 49W, 6th P.M., Kiowa County <br />CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL <br />® The proposed operation does not anticipate exposing groundwater. Therefore, exposure of ground <br />water must not occur during or after mining operations. If stormwater is contained on-site, it must <br />infiltrate into the ground or be released to the natural stream system within 72 hours, or all work <br />must cease until a substitute water supply plan, or augmentation plan approved by water court, is <br />obtained. Reclamation plans must ensure water will not be retained onsite for more than 72 hours <br />unless an augmentation plan approved by water court is obtained. <br />^ The proposed operation will consume ground water by: ^ evaporation, ^ dust control, <br />^ reclamation, ^ water removed in the mined product, ^ processing, ^ other:. <br />Prior to initiation of these uses of ground water, the applicant will need to obtain either a gravel pit <br />or other type of well permit, as applicable. However, prior to obtaining a permit, an approved water <br />supply plan or decreed plan for augmentation is required. <br />^ Prior to approving a well permit, the applicant must conduct a field inspection of the site and <br />document the locations of alt wells within 600 feet of the permit area. The applicant must then <br />obtain a waiver of objection from all well owners with wells within 600 feet of the pertnit area or <br />request a hearing before the State Engineer. <br />^ Other: <br />COMMENTS: <br />
