Aggregate Development Manager
Connell Resources, Inc.
7785 Highland Meadows Parkway, Suite 100
Fort Collins, Colorado 80528
Subject: Tucker Aggregate Mine on the Terry Ranch in Weld County, Colorado
Dear Larry:
At your request the Department of Planning Services reviewed the transfer of the Tucker Aggregate Mine
on the Terry Ranch for compliance with Weld County land use permit number SUP-411. The Board of
County Commissioner approved permit was for a dry mine producing sands, gravels and stones that were
processed on site and trucked from the mine site via an easement to the East 1-25 Frontage Road. The
easement crossed lands owned by others.
At time of determination of compliance, Connell Resources was also operating an asphalt batch plant
from the premises approved through a State paving contract. The batch plant is to be removed at
termination of contract with evidence of such provided to the Department of Planning Services. Staff
indicated that should Connell request a permanent batch plant on site an amendment to the current
application would be required.
Also discussed at the April 28, 2011 meeting was a proposed southerly access from the mine site utilizing
County Road 17 right-of-way. Staff noted that right-of-way exists, however, there is presently no physical
road, and any improvements to County road right-of-way will require an Access Permit. In addition to the
Access Permit, a Long Term Road Maintenance Agreement approved by the Board of County
Commissioners would be required.
A follow-up meeting was held in our offices on May 4, 2011 to further explore the possibility of a new
southern access from the mine site and west of the Lone Tree Creek. Staff directed you to contact the
adjacent property owners as part of your due diligence prior to moving forward with any application.
On April 2011 a letter was submitted to Mr. Peter Hays with the Division of Reclamation, Mining and
Safety [DRMS] addressing the Technical Revision to State Permit M1980-002. The letter to Mr. Hays
addressed acreages within the permitted boundary and references a revised permitted area for Section
17 with access road and Section 20 with access road. The proposed access from Section 20 onto
County Road 17 is not a permitted access through SUP-411, and further there is no road there. County
Road 17 ends approximately 950 feet south of the location delineated on the King Surveyors, Inc., Pit
Access Description, Exhibit 2 of 2 dated April 6, 2011. The information of a Section Line Access onto a
non-existent and non-maintained adjacent road was not provided to DRMS as part of the Technical
Revision.

A second concern is lack of notification to adjacent property owners adjacent to the permit boundary and
adjacent to the improved section of County Road 17. Mr. David Newbold is the property owner for land
adjacent to the permit boundary and a second parcel south of the permit boundary. On this second
parcel is sited his residence and aerial photography indicates that the structure appears to be relatively
close to the road. The Department of Public Works indicates that the current estimated count on this
section of road is approximately 10 trips per day. Has Connell Resources contacted Mr. Newbold to
discuss their proposed second haul route from the Tucker mine site? This increase volume of traffic may
be a concern to Mr, Newbold, the property owner, and also to Mr. Gary Wilson and Terry Grazing
Association property owners adjacent to County Road 17 Section Line and also north of and adjacent to
County Road 126, two vacant parcels.
Given the correspondence to the State, specifically to DRMS, this office has several concerns with the
proposed transfer of succession from Varra Companies, Inc. to Connell Resources, Inc. The Technical
Revision for M1980-002 is not accurate and will require an amendment. Weld County has reservations
with allowing a second access to a mine without the knowledge of adjacent property owners and their
approval of said access without a public hearing.
Given our concerns as outlined herein, please notify this office of your intentions specific to the points
raised. If your intent is to propose a second southerly access, as previously discussed, staff is inclined to
allow a proposal to move forward through the Minor Amendment process. This process allows for public
notification and comment on the proposal. Should this be the application requested, staff is able to meet
with you and provide assistance and direction if required.
If you need any further information, please feel free to contact me at the above address, telephone
number or e-mail address.
Sincerely,
Kim
Planner III

Re: Tucker Aggregate Mine on the Terry Ranch in Weld County a
W
Dear Kim, '"
N
We at Connell Resources, Inc. have decided that the proposed access at the south end of the pit
will not be required. The existing north access that is in the SUP-411 is all that is required for
the operation. The technical revision is showing the south access as a future access. Weld
County has not given approval for an access road and we withdraw our request to have access
from section 20 to the south connecting to CR17 at this time. 03
w
Enclosed you will find a letter from DRMS discussing the following: o
CO
O
• Succession of operators approval revision No. SO-2
• Reclamation bond for $131,400.00
• Technical revision No. TR-04 to redefine the permit boundary
• Inspection report by Peter Hays, with a follow up letter from Connell Resources o
that the sign and boundary makers are in place.
•
• Letter from State Land Board for transfer of access across section 18. o
• Legal description of the permit boundary and map.
s
The operation of the pit will remain as it has been in the past with mining occurring within the 'a
current boundary. The reclamation of the pit area will be on an ongoing operation as required.
Therefore our request is for the transfer of the permit from Varra Companies, Inc. to Connell
Resources, Inc. 0

Re: Tucker Aggregate Pit,Permit No.M-1980-002,Succession of Operators Approval,Revision No. SO-2
Dear Mr. Johnson:
On April 11, 2011, the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety approved the succession of operators from Varra
Companies Inc to Connell Resources, Inc. for this operation. Connell Resources,Inc. is now the permitted operator of the
Tucker Aggregate Pit,and as such,is responsible for all provisions in M-1980-002,as well as those specified in the Rules
and Regulations. Varra Companies Inc is relieved of all responsibilities concerning this operation.
Please Note:
1. All of the application materials, as amended and supplemented, are in integral part of your permit. They have
been incorporated into the permit by reference. We presume that you have a copy of all of these materials, therefore,
none have been enclosed with this mailing. We suggest that you keep a copy of the permit and the permit application at
the mining operation as a reference for operation personnel,to help ensure compliance with the terms of the permit.
2. Changes in the mining and reclamation operations that differ from those described in the permit may require a
modification to the permit. We suggest consulting the Rules and Regulations and/or contacting us to determine if a
modification to the permit is necessary. Rule 1.10 pertains to Amendments, Rule 1.9 to Technical Revisions, and Rule
1.11 to Conversions.
3. On your permit anniversary date each year, you must submit an annual fee and annual report to us. Please
consult the Rules,Act, and your permit for specific requirements.
The transfer of this permit does not result in the transfer of any other permits or licenses, with this Division, the State,
or Federal Agency,which might be associated with this operation.
If you have any questions, contact me.
Sincerely,
Peter S. Hays

PERMIT#: M-1980-002
INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: PSH
INSPECTION DATE: May 6, 2011
Succession of Operator
Connell submitted a Transfer of Permit and Succession of Operators Application Form on April 11, 2011 and
selected Option B. By selecting Option B, Connell did not waive their right to a 30-day processing period and
were required to submit a replacement Financial Warranty for the same dollar amount maintained by the
current Operator ($131,400.00). The Division approved the Transfer of Permit and Succession of Operators for
the Tucker Aggregate Pit on April 11, 2011. Connell is now the permitted operator of the Tucker Aggregate Pit
and Varra Companies, Inc. has been released from reclamation responsibility at the site.
The Division is required to recalculate the required reclamation bond within 60-days from the date of the
transfer is completed (June 10, 2011).
Technical Revision
On April 19, 2011, Connell submitted a Technical Revision (TR-04) to change the permit boundaries of the pit
in order to mine and reclaim the area in a more resourceful way and incorporate the current disturbance into
the permitted acreage. The original total permit acres for the site was 220 acres, however due to the age of
the permit file the boundaries were poorly defined. Connell conducted a survey of the site to accurately
delineate the permit boundaries and incorporate the current disturbance and future mining areas into a
215.077 acre site.
Based on the revised permit boundary submitted in the Technical Revision (TR-04) and the observations from
this inspection, the current financial warranty in the amount of($131,400.00) is adequate to reclaim the site
per the approved Reclamation Plan.
Inspection Observations
The Tucker Aggregate Pit is actively mining. A processing plant (crusher) and portable asphalt plant were
located at the site during the inspection. Mining is complete in the northern section of the site and the
highwalls have been resloped. The asphalt plant was located in this section of the site. Mining restarted in
the center of the site and is planned to continue south. Stockpiles of recently stripped topsoil and overburden
were observed along the western boundary. Two large and well-vegetated stockpiles of topsoil were located
in the northwest corner of the site and will be used to reclaim the northern portion of the site. Additional
topsoil and overburden stockpiles are scattered in the middle of the site. The typical soil profile at the site is
three (3) feet of topsoil and overburden and seven (7) feet of sand and gravel.
An overhead power line is located along the southern permit boundary. A structure agreement for the power
line is not on file with the Division. The Operator will need to provide a structure agreement, per Rule 6.5,
prior to mining within 200 feet of the structure. Mr. Johnson stated Connell is working on obtaining the
required agreement.
The mine sign and permit boundary markers were not observed, as required by Rule 3.1.12. Mr. Johnson
stated the mine sign would be installed at the entry gate after all permit numbers were issued for the site and
the temporary wood lath boundary markers would be replaced with metal posts within 30 days. These issues
are noted as a problem at the beginning of this report and will require corrective actions by the Operator.
