The request is predicated on the <br />following facts: (a) mining and reclamation in the area of interest is substantially <br />complete; (b) the City of Brighton (i.e., the landowner) wishes to construct a water <br />storage project in the subject area which requires the installation of a slurry wall that is <br />not contemplated in the approved reclamation plan; and (c) certain reclamation activities <br />and stmctures required by the approved reclamation plan will either be immediately <br />disturbed by the City's planned activities or, alternatively, rendered obsolete by the City's <br />post-mining water storage land use. <br />Additional details concerning this request are outlined in this letter. Attachments to this <br />letter include 1) a new Exhibit A -Legal Description for the area to remain in the DMG <br />permit; 2) a survey map of the proposed new permit boundary; and 3) photographs of <br />reclamation grading and revegetation representative of existing reclamation conditions. <br />Also included is a Technical Revision fee check for $188.00 for processing this request. <br />Finally, we also expect to provide under separate cover a letter from the City requesting <br />that the subject area be released "as-is" to facilitate their construction of water storage <br />facilities. <br /> Reclamation activities in conformance with the DMG-112 permit have been performed <br /> including perimeter grading and sloping, cleanup of mining equipment and debris, <br /> removal of stockpiles, and partial topsoiling and revegetation. Reclamation elements not <br /> yet performed at the request of the City include completing seeding with native grasses, <br /> planting of trees and shmbs, and construction of an Urban Drainage and Flood Control <br /> District (UDFCD) governed side channel spillway from what is called Cel] No. 1 to the <br /> South Platte River. <br /> The seeding and planting is being delayed because it would largely be immediately <br /> disturbed by City when the perimeter slurry wall around Cell No. 1 is constmcted. <br />2329 west Main Street Constmction of the side channel spillway is being delayed because the need for it (if at <br />Suite 20 l all) at the location depicted in the reclamation plan is dependent upon the City's design <br /> and construction of inlet/outlet facilities to their reservoir. <br />Littleton, CO 80120 <br />303.703.1405 <br />fax 303.703.1404 <br />wwva. briereyassociates. corn <br />
