Dept. nt l~atu~a4 Rasnurces <br />Re: Rozman Pit <br />File 11 31-14 <br />Dear Bob <br />In regard to your letter of Afarch 9, 1931, I will address the items <br />as listed. <br />1. Afining Plan <br />The Corps of Engineers is familiar with this pit and no 404 <br />Permit is required. <br />2. Reclamation Plan <br />Perhaps my description of the operation is not clear enough, but <br />topsoil should not be stockpiled for long enough to cause deter- <br />ioration. 13 to 24 months should be the maximum time in stockile. <br />[de could seed the stockpiles with yellow sweet clover if you think <br />it is necessary. <br />It does not appear that the degree of slope is severe enough to <br />require erosion control measures. Naturally the applicant does not <br />want to be operating equipment over an eroded pit floor. Gravel <br />plating of the pit floor will be a natural part of the operation. <br />If water bars are needed they will be installed. Note that in Exhibit <br />"B", Vicinity i1ap, an old railroad grade lies between the major <br />pit area and the Slate River. This dill help prevent erosion and any <br />runoff into tl~e Slate River. <br />3. Seeding Mixture <br />The operator will agree to the increased seed requirement. <br />4. Vegetative Information <br />A quantitative description of vegetative cover eaould be sparse to <br />moderate. <br />4. Reclamation Costs <br />The operator caould agree to provide a $15,000.00 bond. <br />5. Local Government Approval <br />You should have already received a copy of Gunnison County Planning <br />Commission approval, and a letter of approval from t}ie Board of County' <br />Commissioners should be in your hand shortly or in the mail. <br />
