M-77-572 <br />Dear Ms. Hellner: <br />This Department wrote you on September 25, 1986 expressing our concerns with <br />Valco's mining operations north of Lamar in the Arkansas River, immediately <br />below one of our bridges. Subsequent correspondence from your offir_e to Va1co <br />(dated November 3, 1986), and Valco's response (dated November 11, 1986) has <br />started a dialogue between Valco and the Department. <br />On November 19, representatives of the Department and Valco met at the site in <br />Lamar. We discussed our concerns and what we belie~~ed to be possible impacts <br />on the highway and our bridges because of this mining operation. We also <br />discussed possible corrective solutions to the problem. Valco's engineer, Mr. <br />William Ruzzo, proposed possible protecti~-e measures which could be 'aken by <br />Valco. <br />It was agreed that Mr. Ruzzo will submit to the Department sketches :showing <br />their proposed protection for our review. The time required for the <br />submittal, review and any subsequent acceptance will probably take se+veral <br />weeks, and ma;~be months. However, we have begun to work on this, and all the <br />parties feel a satisfactory solution can be found. <br />I wanted to inform you of the status of this, and try to keep you informed of <br />what has happened. If you would like to be involved in any subsequert reviews <br />as plans are generated, please feel free to contact me and we will share what <br />we have with you. <br />Sincerely, <br />~R: BROi/'~4H~ <br />D trict Preconstruciton Engineer <br />RQB/ls <br />cc: Mr. William R. Eisenman, Valco, Inc.-Lamar <br />
