In response to the letter from the Division of Wildlife, we wish to make the following comments. We feel that the intent of the Easement for Hunting, Fishing and Other Recreation was to allow general access of the public to the Frank property for these purposes and in no way was intended to sub- stantially restrict or reduce the owners beneficial use of the property. The subject tract is a minumum of approximately 900 feet North of the Cache La Poudre River channel and no work will be done in the channel or within the 25 feet cited in Paragraph 5 of said Easement Agreement. The tract will be fenced during the mining operation for safety reasons and then the fence will be removed: Only 30 feet of the perimeter of the Frank property will be fenced and less than 3 percent of the easement acreage temporarily removed from easement use. The applicant fully intends to operate within the law and any other duly imposed limitations and restrictions and will obtain necessary permits from all Local , County, State and Federal agencies. The last sentence in the second paragraph of the Application and Report is incorrect and should read - The tract of land and the created pond will be returned to the use of the owner with the previous Easement for Hunting, Fishing and Recreation to remain in effect. 1 La Poudre Sand & Gravel Pit January 14, 1980 Page 2 We are aware the Sand, Gravel and Quarry Material Resources Map shows a part of the Frank property within the Flood Plain Deposit area containing sand and gravel deposits. However the possibility, extent, feasibility , timing and ownership of any future mining operations on the property are only speculation at this time. We understand your concern in regards to the questions raised by the Division of Wildlife but request that you review and process the application as presented. If there is a legal problem with the interpetation of the Easement, there is separate recourse to resolve this matter. Respectfully, McRae & Short, Inc. scfe./... Gerald B.

An old channel of the Poudre River appears to be located along the southern boundary of the parcel. County Road 13 is unimproved (gravel) . A residence is located along the northern boundary of the parcel apparently within 660 feet of the gravel pit . There is another residence in Larimer County across County Road 13 approximately 1/4 to 1/2 mile from the site. The Poudre River flows beneath the bluffs area to the south of the site. The surrounding properties are primarily agricultural (pasture) . While visibility from County Road 13 onto Highway 392 is good, a large number of trucks entering onto Highway 392 may require a gravel-based accel/decel lane on 392.

EXHIBIT B - Mining Plan This can be a general discussion of the methods, equipment, phases or stages of the operation and those portions of land affected by each. The plan should be closely correlated with the map and should show where extraction will begin, which direction it will proceed. EXHIBIT C - Map This map should be as comprehensive as possible in terms of clearly defining the permit boundaries and indicating all roads or stockpile areas to be used in connection with the operation. All iu1L.ediately adjacent landowners must be shown. The closest quarter section corner, section line, or any other locateable point should also be shown on the map. EXHIBIT D - Wildlife, Water Resources , Vegetation and Soils Information Each of the above-mentioned subjects must be addressed as outlined in the applicable Rule, under item number ten (10) . EXHIBIT E - Reclamation Plan As with the mining plan, this should be a general discussion of the methods, equipment, phases or stages of the reclamation process and those portions of land affected by each. If possible, the plan should be closely correlated with the map. If not, the narrative must be comprehensive enough to draw an accurate verbal picture of the expected physical appearance of the area after completion of reclamation. EXHIBIT F - Proof of Local Government Approval This must be a letter from the local government specifying conformance with existing zoning regulations. EXHIBIT G - Source of Legal Right to Enter This could be a copy of the lease, deed, abstract of title, or current tax receipt. In lieu thereof, a statement acknowledged by a notary public that the operator has the legal right to enter and mine will be accepted. **FOR SPECIAL 1O-DAY PERMITS O\LY** EXHIBIT 1 - Reclamation Costs If the surety is requested to be less than $25OO, the operator must submit facts to support such request. Otherwise a surety of $2500 will automatically be set. EXHIBIT I - Terms of Governmental Contract The operator must submit a copy of the contract or other proof that proves the necessity of a special 1O-day permit. The operator must also submit evidence of the surety provided under the governmental contract, if it was required.

' 22 11 1J " , • AO' , f ' , //, - B3 ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS The impact of this operation should be minimal , and the existing regu- lations and controls should insure against any excessive abuses to the environment or public. The addition of diesel fuel fumes from the motors of running equipment and dust from the portion of the site being worked and the traffic on the access roads will contribute to the air pollution. Good maintain- ance of the equipment and gravelling and watering of the roads should minimize these conditions. Water pollution should be miminum as the water being pumped to lower the groundwater table will be clear, and any water used in washing the gravel will be directed to a settling basin where it will percolate into the ground. Any direct discharge to the river will require a NPDES Discharge Permit. Noise pollution should be very little more than on the existing farming operation. A portion of the operation will be done below grade. Crush- ing and screening will add noise, but this will be only a small part of the operation. Any glare factors will be minimum due to the location and contours of the site. Hazard due to fire will be minimal due to the non-combustible material and amount of free standing water. Fuel storage and the office building will be located with adequate separation from each other and any off-site improvements. The impact on the traffic in the area should be minimal . County Road No. 13 carries very little daily traffic. Access onto State Highway No. Cl ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS (Continued) 392 is at the existing intersection which has excellent sight distance in all directions. Domestic sewage from the office will be held in a holding tank and pumped bi-monthly. Domestic water for the office will be from the North Weld County Water District line located in Colorado Road No. 13. Public safety will be addressed by a locked gate at the entrance with posted signs on the fenced perimeter of the property indicating.. . PRIVATE PROPERTY--KEEP OUT These and other concerns , if any, can be more specifically regulated in the "Standards" included in the Special Use Permit granted by Weld County. C2 MINING PLAN The applicant proposes to excavate the gravel lying in the 9.9 Acre tract previoulsy described. The majority of the gravel extracted will be used as "pit-run" material and excavated and loaded as required. A portable crusher and screening unit will be utilized intermittently during the mining to provide quantities of crushed, washed and graded gravel to be stockpiled on the site to fill the requests for selected material . While the sales of gravel will be to anyone in the construc- tion materials and construction fields , it is anticipated that the op- erator will also use the gravel for his own construction business . Presently, the site is being used as pasture land with natural grasses in good condition. The site is located in the flood plain and is very flat. The gravel pit operation will have very little effect on drain- age in the area. The major concern will -e those associated with oper- ating within a flood plain. The soils report indicates a 10 to 14 foot layer of sand and gravel lying under 1 foot of top-soil and 2 to 5 feet of silty clay. Allowing a 50-foot set-back from all boundary lines, it is estimated that the site will yield approximately 56,000 cubic yards of over-burden and 169,300 cubic yards (320,000 Tons) of sand and gravel . The site plan will be to located the buildings and the sotckpiles to- ward the Westerly end of the site near the access road. The mining op- eration will commence at the Easterly end of the site and work progress- ively toward the West. The procedure will be to strip the top-soil in berm fashion in the 50-foot perimeter area. The mining area will then be de-watered by a peripheral trench, collection and pumping system. D1 MINING PLAN (Continued) The ground-water pumped will be discharged into adjoining swales and field ditches where it will percolate or drain to the river. Mining will then proceed through direct removal or stockpiling. Additional mining areas will be opened as necessary to meet the demand. As soon as a large enough area has been mined, the banks will be reshaped to the final slope, the top-soil replaced and the reclamation process in- itiated. Small amounts of water will be used for washing and dust control . Water used in this manner will re-enter the ground through settling basins or trenches and not be directly discharged to any stream. It is estimated that the life of this project will be from 4 to 5 years. The mining operation will be governed by the State Health Department regulations for Noise, Dust and Discharge of Water and also conform to the Special Use Standards established by Weld County for other opera- ting conditions. D2 RECLAMATION PLAN _ As the mining progresses, the banks will be shaped to side slopes with a maximum of 3:1 above waterline to a point 10 feet below waterline and 2:1 below the 10 foot water depth. The stockpiled topsoil mater- ial will be respread over all areas above the waterline and seeded with the mixture of grasses and in the manner recommended by the Soils Conservation Service. Reclamation will proceed at the earliest feas- ible time in conjunction with the mining operation. It seems reasonable that this location can be re-integrated with the river plain and provide cover for wildlife and perhaps fishery develop- ment. Due to the size and location of the property, it is anticipated that the property and pond will remain as a private lake to be used by the owner. El WILDLIFE STATEMENT TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: The applicant has made every effort to obtain a statement from the Division of Wildlife concerning this application. The initial request for a review was made by letter and sketch on June 8, 1979. (See attached) . Concern developed in regard to the Wildlife Easement (Attached) held by the Division of Wildlife and a meeting was held on the site on July 24, 1979 between Mrs. Frank, her attorney, Mr. Bosley and five representatives of the Division; Messrs. Desilet, Todd, Bogart, Leonard and Crawford. As a result of this meeing, the Division requested more spec- ific information in their letter dated July 30, 1979. (See attached) . This information was provided to the best of the applicant' s ability by letter on September 10, 1979. (See attached) . Many attempts have been made since that date to obtain a statemen:tfrom the Division with no results. The only comment appears to be that no statement can be made until a long term plan of the total property is submitted. At this time, there are no plans and no testing has been made outside the "Limited Impact" area for which this permit is being requested. The appli- cant is aware that any extension of this operation will require a "Regular Operation" permit and all the supporting information and approvals. Since time is of the essence in this matter from the standpoint of both the landowner and the prospective operator, this Application is being submitted without the formal comments of the Division of Wildlife, as stated above, but with the assurance that the applicant and its representatives will con- tinue their attempts to obtain these comments from Wildlife for inclusion with the Application and/or the development standards.

Desilet Regional Habitat Biologist Division of Wildlife Northeast Regional Office P.O. Box 2287 Fort Collins , Colorado 80522 RE: VELMA FRANK GRAVEL MINING PROPOSAL Dear Mr. Desilet: We have reviewed your letter requesting additional information and can provide the following: At this point, the only investigation and planning that has been undertaken is on the initial 9.9 Acres. This area has been tested for gravel and is somewhat removed from the improvements and the existing river channel . A contract has been prepared with an operator for the excavation of the gravel . Approximately 180 Acres (along the river channel ) of the 290 total Acres, more or less , owned by Mrs. Frank may have mineable gravel deposits. If a proposal can be put together, the owner will probably commence a total master plan for the entire project. At such time, a full impact statement and reclamation plan will be prepared for review by interested parties and approving agencies. We understand your interest in the long term possibilities, but at this time there are no definite plans. The operation will be contained within the 9. 9 Acres and it is estimated that approximately 56,000 cubic yards of overburden and 169,300 cubic yards(320,000 Tons) of sand and gravel will be produced. A pond with a surface area of about 5. 5 Acres and a depth of 13 to 17 feet will remain after the mining is complete. It is anticipated that the life of this project will be from 4 to 5 years. Reclamation plans will include shaping of the side slopes as shown on the plans, and respreading the top soil above the high water line and reseeding with a mix- ture of native grasses as recommended by the Soils Conservation Service. (See attached) . The reclamation phase will begin as soon as practical in conjunction with the mining operation. F4 Mr. Ronald P. Desilet September 10, 1979 Division of Winldlife P.O.

McRae, Y.E. McRae & Short, Inc. 1227 8th Avenue Greeley, Co. 80631 The following information is in answer to your request for soil and site information, for a proposed 9.9 acre gravel pit site located on the Velma Frank farm in the NW corner of Section 19, Twp. 6N, Range 67W, Weld County, Colorado. The entire site is composed of the soil type Aquolls and Aquents, gravelly substratum. The soil map and soil description are included, along with the _ site vegetation survey and site reclamation information. If there are any questions, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, -�� {deg_ onald D. Miller District Conservationist Greeley Field Office c: Velma Frank RDM:j b (nti VEGETATIVE INVENTORY I The subject site was inspected on July 3, 1979. Occular estimate was used to determine plant composition and production figures. The following plants and percent composition by weight were found on the site. Grasses Percent Composition Alkali sacaton (Sporobolus airoides) 570 L Western wheatgrass (Agropyron smithii) 20% Tall wheatgrass (Agropyron elongatum) 1070 Intermediate wheatgrass (Agropyron intermedium) 1070 Slender wheatgrass (Agropyron trachycaulum) 1070 Inland saltgrass (Distichlis stricta) 1570 Alkali bluegrass (Poe juncifolia) 170 Prairie sandreed (Calamovilfa longifolia) 370 Sand dropseed (Sporobolus cryptandrus) 370 Needle-and-thread (Stipa comata) 370 Foxtail barley (Hordeum jubatum) 2% Crass-Like , I Sedge (Carex ssp.) 5/ Forbs Kochia (Kochia scoparia) 570 Lambs quarters (Chenopodium album) 570 Tansy mustard (Descurainia pinna=a) T i Annual forbs 370 Trees None found on site When the above percentages are compared with the percent in the potential plant community for Salt Meadow Range Site (attached) , the site rating is Good Condition. The ground cover is 50-6070, with total annual production of 2500-3000 pounds, air dry per acre. __ 4 RECLAMATION SUGGESTIONS Existing topsoil material, 0-24 inches, should be stockpiled. After gravel extraction has taken place, the remaining pit area should be banksloped to 4:1 or flatter where possible, and the stockpiled topsoil replaced on the areas that will be above water table level. Revegetation will require at least a twelve inch depth plant growth media for satisfactory reestablishment. , _ _- Suggested Vegetative Cover: For 4:1 bankslopes with south and east exposure, a mixture of 40% Western wheatgrass (Agropyron smithii , variety Barton) , 30% Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum, variety Grenville) and 30% Alkali sacaton (Sporobolus airoides, variety: seed source from within 150 miles of planting site) may be used. Recommended seeding rates: 40 pure live seed (PLS) per square foot. Rates are for use with a grass drill - double for broadcast seeding. Western wheatgrass, variety Barton 40% = 6.4 lbs. PLS/Acre Switchgrass, variety Grenville 30% = 1.35 lbs. PLS/Acre I Alkali sacaton 30% = 0.30 lbs. PLS/Acre TOTAL 8.05 lbs. PLS/Acre These grasses, when established, will provide excellent wildlife habitat for nesting and brood cover. f - Slopes at 3:1 should be mulched after seeding to reduce water and wind erosion - before the area is protected by the seeded vegetative cover. An effective mulch of clean straw (grass, hay or cereal grain) applied at a rate of 4,000 pounds per acre, will provide 92 percent of coverage for the soil surface. This will increase soil moisture and reduce the surface temperature to protect germinating seeds and seedlings. The straw should be crimped into the soil to prevent it from blowing and washing away. Other acceptable mulch materials are excelsior matting, jute netting and erosion control fabric. , _ _ SEEDING DATES: All seedings should be made in the spring, if possible, to take advantage of the best moisture period. Recommended dates are between March 15th and May 15th. Late fall seeding can be made after October 15th. Germination will not take place until the following spring. SEEDING EQUIPMENT: A grass drill with depth bands should be used. This will insure a better seed germination and survival rate. Broadcast seeding is acceptable but not recommended. k I S(:S-CONS-18 DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE OCTOBER 1974 Sec. 19-6-67 SOIL CONSERVATION SERVICE • :_.•:-: SOIL MAP f Owner Velma Frank Operator rT'-- County Weld State Colorado Soil survey sheet(s) or code nos.

Purpose To conserve moisture; prevent surface compaction or crusting; reduce runoff and erosion; control weeds; and help establish plant cover. Where applicable On soils subject to erosion on which low-residue-producing crops, such as grapes and small fruits are grown; on critical areas;. and on soils that have a low infiltration rate. SPECIFICATIONS A. General 1. The area shall be relatively smooth and free of gullies or drifts. 2. Mulching material shall be applied immediately before or after seeding unless seed is applied with mulch. When stabilizing sandy soils it is recommended that seeding will be done after mulch application to prevent seeding too deep. B. Straw or Hay Mulch 1. The material will be grass hay or cereal grain straw. (Both referred to as straw in these specifications) 2. The normal rate of application shall be 4,000 lbs/Ac of air dry material. - 3. At least 50% of the mulch by weight shall be 10 inches or more in length. 4. The straw will be free of noxious weeds. 5. Mulch Anchoring-apply immediately after distributing straw. Page 1 of 2 Topsoil Application �. J The recommendation for topsoil should be based primarily on need and cost. Topsoil is needed on sites having an exposed soil surface low in organic matter and texture classification of clay loam or heavier. This need increases significantly if the soils are inherently dry, if the slopes are greater than 6:1 and if the slope aspect is south or southwest . The total cost of topsoil should include cost of purchase, transpor- tation, and application. Topsoil should be applied after shaping and grading Lave been. ,olr,,.leted and the site tilled to a aeath of approximately 6 inche Tillage permits topsoil to bind with existing soil. Binding of s' il layer prevents air pockets, encourages root penetration, an prevents topsoil slippage on slopes. Following application of topsoil, final steps in seecibed preparation should be completed. :'Frtilizer Ppplication A. Critical areas shall be fertilized unless a laboratory soil analysis indicates sufficient amounts of nitrogen and pho.;phorous are present - for establishment of vegetation. B. If fertilizer is recommended , rate of application should not be less than 40 lbs ot nitrogen and 40 lbs of phosphate. ' . Time of application should normally be immediately i.rior to seeding. If proper equipment is used, fertilizer may be applied at time of ' • seeding. If the nutrient content of the soil is sufficient for establishment , it may be desirable to apply fertilizer after grass is well established. This procedure allows the grass, rather than weeds, to better utilize the plant nutrients. . . Mulching A. All critical areas will be mulched unless the area conservationist, in consultation with the state agronomist, waives the requirement in order to accomodate unusual circumstances. B. For a guide in selecting the most effective mulch for controlling erosion and aiding in establishing vegetation, see Agronomy Note / \ No. 47, "Mulches for Critical Areas", and Standards E. Specifications for "Mulching". N Page 2 of 3 6. Method of Seeding Drills Proper seeding equipment should be used on critical areas. If native grasses are recommended, a grass drill should also be recommended. The drill should be equipped with a satisfactory feeding mechanism, agitator, double disk furrow openers and packer wheels. Depending upon the seeding recommendation, it may be necessary to have separate boxes for fluffy grasses, small seeded grasses and for legumes. Hydraulic Equipment This is an acceptable method but should ordinarily be restricted to areas inaccessible to drills. If hydromulch is to be applied, the seed should be applied in a separate operation prior to mulching. The exception to this will be irrigated areas. Hand Application - Broadcast seeding by hand or a manually operated seeder is acceptable on small area and areas not accessible to drills. Seed will be covered 1/4" to 1/2" deep by raking or harrowing. 7. Selection of species A. Attached are seven lists of grasses and legumes and a list of adapted woody plants. These have been prepared by Land Resource Areas (LRA). Some LRA's have been grouped for the purpose of simplifying seeding recommendations. B. Select adapted grasses and legumes from the appropriate attachment. 8. Time of seeding Date of seeding will be at the discretion of Field Office personnel. Generally, seeding will be made immediately prior to anticipated periods of precipitation, or during late fall or early winter so that germination will occur in the spring. Seeding will not be done if the soil is frozen. 9. Rate of seeding See Standard and Specifications for "Seeding Rates" 10. Protection Critical areas must be protected from people, livestock and vehicles until areas are stabilized. Also, it may be necessary to limit or control future use indefinitely.

The material will be grass hay or cereal grain straw. (Both referred to as straw in these specifications) 2. The normal rate of application shall be 4,000 lbs/Ac of air dry material. 3. At least 50% of the mulch by weight shall be 10 inches or more L- -- in length. 4. The straw will be free of noxious weeds. 5. Mulch Anchoring-apply immediately after distributing straw. Page 1 of 2 a. Manufactured mu: netting: Follow manufacturer's instructions; however, the following minimum specifications must be met: , Mulch netting will be pulled hand tight over straw. Mulch netting will be held firmly in place. (U-shaped metal pins are commercially available from mulch net manufacturers for this purpose. They are usually made of 8 gauge wire and are six inches or longer, in length. ) Pin spacing will be not more than 10 linear feet. If the soil is sandy or other- wise exceptionally loose, use longer pins and wooden stakes, as needed, to firmly secure netting. b. Asphalt : Either of the following asphalt products may he blown cn with the straw, or sprayed or sprinkled after the straw is spread. Liquid asphalt - rapid curing (R.C. 1,2 ,3) or medium ^uri-g N.C. 2,3). Liquid asphalt is cut back with s kerosere-' :' e product and can be applied in freezing weather. Normal rate of application is 0.10 gal/sq.yd. or approximately 500 gal/A. Emulsified asphalt - rapid setting (R.S. 1,2) or medium setting (MS. 2) or slow setting (S.S. 1). Emulsified asphalt contains approximately 50 percent water and should not be applied in freezing weather, Normal rate of application is 0.04 gal/sq.yd. or approximately 200 gal/A. c . Mechanical method - special equipment is manufactured specifically for this purpose. However, if a "mulch crimper" is not available, a farm type disc plow can be used by setting the discs straight and apply adequate weight to crimp the straw "4" into the soil. Jute Netting - heavy woven jute mesh designed for mulching. Install in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations. L. Excelsior Mat - wood covered with plastic netting. Installation will he in accordance with manufacturers recommendations. E. Erosion Control Fabric - plastic knitted yarn interwoven with strips of paper.

The investigation included drilling of test borings and preparation of this report. Four (4) test borings were drilled at the site on October 30, 1978. Locations of the test borings are shown on the Test Boring Location Plan included on page 4 of this report. The borings were advanced with continuous-flight augers to depths sixteen (16) to twenty (20) feet below present grades. Samples of the sand and gravel were recovered using the standard drive sample technique. During drilling, a field engineer of Empire Laboratories , Inc. was present and made a continuous inspection of soils encountered. Logs prepared from the field notes are included on page 6 of this report. Indicated on the logs are the primary strata encountered, location of samples, and groundwater conditions. The investigated area is located in the northwest 1/4 of Section 19, Township 6 North, Range 67 West of the Sixth P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. The northern portion of the investigated area is used for agricultural purposes. The remainder of the area is presently pasture land. Farm buildings exist west of Boring 3. Drainage is to the south toward the Cache La Poudre River. ®Ol:q\ O\ =1 Or I MEMBER OF CONSULTING ENGINEERS COUNCIL ,4,AfiEY _ /1) McRae and Short, Incorporated Page Two The following are the characteristics of the primary strata encoun- tered at the site. (1 ) Topsoil : A twelve (12) inch layer of silty topsoil was encountered at the surface in each of the borings. The upper six (6) to eight (8) inches of the topsoil have been pene- trated by root growth and organic matter. (2) Silty Clay: The topsoil is underlain by silty clay which extends to depths two (2) to five (5) feet below present grades. The silty clay is moist and contains minor amounts of sand. (3) Sand and Gravel : This stratum was encountered at two (2) to five (5) feet and extends to depths twelve (12) to seventeen (17) feet below present grades. The upper portions of the stratum are medium dense and contain some silt and clay fines. With increasing depth, the sand and gravel becomes denser and coarser. Cobbles estimated to be four (4) to eight (8) inches in size were encountered within the sand and gravel . (4) Siltstone Bedrock: Siltstone bedrock underlies the sand and gravel and extends to the depths explored. The upper one (1 ) to two (2) feet of the bedrock formation are weathered. Underlying bedrock is firm. (5) Groundwater: Water was encountered in the test borings approximately two (2) to four and one-half (42) feet below present grades. Groundwater levels are subject to fluctuation depending on seasonal conditions , irrigation demands, and flows in the Cache La Poudre River. Based upon our previous experience in the Cache La Poudre River valley, the sand and gravel encountered in the test borings is a good source for base coarse aggregate, concrete aggregate, and asphaltic concrete aggregate. The materials encountered are hard, durable, metamorphic and igneous fragments and are of sufficient size to permit crushing for aggregate for the above uses. The existing gravel pit approximately one-fourth (1/4) mile north of the investigated area is a good aggregate source for concrete and asphalt. • McRae and Short, Incorporated Page Three We appreciate this opportunity of consulting with you on this project.

On Or Before Dear Glenn : It has recently come to my attention that a bond for rehabilitation of a gravel pit under the name of Walter G . and Velma Frank is expiring April 1 , 1973 . A field inspec- tion was made during the first week of March which revealed no gravel extraction had taken place , no equipment for such gravel extraction is located on the land nor does there ap- pear to be any activity which indicates that any extraction is contemplated in the near future . A zone change was also granted from "A" Agricultural District to " I " Industrial District by the Board for 4 . 155 acres which was to be used for a ready-mix concrete plant operation . The Resolution also states "that a developer proceed with due diligence to begin development of the area surrounding the gravel pit operation and submit plans to the Weld County Plan- ning Commission . " This said change of zone herein granted from "A " Agricultural District to " I " Industrial District is conditional and shall exist only until sand , gravel and soil is exhausted from this certain gravel pit adjacent to subject property and heretofor granted by Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners on 3/25/70 . The Resolution continues , "this such area herein rezoned shall revert to "A" Agricultural District as origin- ally zoned and said ready-mix concrete plant shall be removed from the presmises forthwith" . In view of the bond being terminated , the area not being mined and no installation of equipment to extract and process such sand and gravel , it is recommended by the Planning staff that proceedings begin to show cause why the permit should not be revoked and the zoning be reverted to "A " Agricultural use .

Box-86 Greeley, Colorado 80632 I have reviewed the referral from the Weld County Planning Commission for Velma Frank, Special Use Permit for an Open Cut Mine for sand and_gravel, 9.9 acres to be located in the WzNW' of Section 19, Twp. 6N, Range 67W, 14 miles west of Windsor, Colorado. The plan seems reasonable and complete and includes our recommendations for reclamation of the site during and/or after mining operations are complete. The reclamation plan states specifically that reclamation will be performed in a manner recommended by the Soil Conservation Service. An on-site inves- tigation was performed and recommendations were prepared in July of 1979 for the site. The plan does not reference any erosion control measures that will be imple- mented during the mining process. However, due to site conditions, I do not feel erosion will be a serious problem. Consideration should be given to the possibility of establishing vegetation on the material stockpiles to reduce wind and water erosion until the material is needed for topsoiling for reclamation purposes.

Our well logs indicate 9 to 14 ft of sand and gravel in this stretch of the river. The thinness of the deposit, the very small mineable acreage (between 5 and 6 acres) , and the relatively short life of the operation will contribute minimal impacts to the surrounding area.

It is unlikely that a ten-acre gravel pit would result in truck traffic at a level which would have a serious negative impact on the highway. However, if gravel extraction is expanded beyond the contemplated ten acres, we feel the operation should be re-assessed as to what impacts the expansion would have on the County and State Highway system. In particular, accommodation of truck turning movements at the intersection of County Road 13 and State High- way 392 would need to be assessed.

Open Cut Gravel Pit Application near Windsor, Colorado. Wz of NWT of Section 19 , T6N, R67W, 6th P.M. Dear Ms. Traxler: We have made a flood hazard review for the La Poudre special use permit application and find the following: 1. The proposed gravel pit is located in the 100-year floodplain of the Cache La Poudre River. The floodplain is described in an October, 1975 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Report titled "Flood Plain Information, Cache La Poudre River, Colorado Volume III , Fort Collins - Greeley, Larimer - Weld County. " This report was designated by the Colorado Water Conservation Board on March 17 , 1976 and thus is available to local governments for regulation purposes. 2. No defined floodway exists for this reach of the Cache La Poudre River, nor is FIA determining one in their present study. 3. From the assumed elevations shown on the plans , which should be slightly higher than USGS sealevel datum, the gravel pit would be under approximately 5 feet of water during a 100-year event. Please note the attached data from the Corps report. Under State criteria where depth of flooding is greater than 18" , this pit would be in the floodway. r , Ms. Vickie Traxler December 26 , 1979 Page two 4. The proposed site is generally 1500 feet north of the present flow path of the river. From the aerials in the Corp report, the river appears to have meandered as much as 2000 feet north at various times. Thus , channel encroachment is not a problem but floodway encroachment should probably be considered to some extent. 5. A reclamation plan is included. Based on the above findings we offer the following recommen- dations : A. Any operations of this gravel pit should not obstruct the passage of the 100-year flood flow to the point that it has any adverse effects on others . Levees, dikes , stockpiles and similiar obstructions should be kept to minimums. B. Fuel tanks, septic tanks and any other items that might wash away during flooding and create "hazards to public health" should be securly anchored and adequately flood- proofed to avoid creation of this type hazard. C. All temporary buildings should be securely anchored and adequately floodproofed. Following completion of mining, all temporary buildings should be removed. D. Any water pumped from the site should not cause flooding or create hazards to others . E. Following completion of mining, all dikes , levees , and any remaining stockpiles should be leveled and the terrain returned to normal as much as possible. Also, after reclamation, this land should remain floodway. Should you have any questions concerning our recommendations , we will be happy to respond. Very truly yours , V. R �, , . D.

Enclosed are comments on the permit application (by page number) based on the limited information we have available at this time. We have been waiting since September 10, 1979 for a proposed mining plan for the 180 acres being considered for mining by Mrs. Frank and have not received that report at this time. The Division of Wildlife must have a total report of proposed actions on the Frank land we hold a permanent easement on. Mining or any other activity that disturbs vegetation and/or changes current use of the land covered by the permanent easement is a violation of that easement. Based on the data available, the Division of Wildlife hereby requests that the Weld County Planning Commission deny the Special Use Permit application (SUP- 409:79:31) of Mrs. Velma Frank.

Page C-2 Present permanent easement requires that the property be open year round to all hunting, fishing and trapping, and a closure of any part of the Frank Property perimeter would violate this easement. Page D-1 A pit 16-20 feet deep, as shown in the applicants diagram, could drain the surrounding area and kill vegetation protected by the permanent easement. Page D-1 Top soil should be stored and redistributed on the disturbed area after mining is completed in keeping with the vegetation protection requirements of the permanent easement. Page D-2 Actions resulting in stockpiling of materials within a floodplain may require a federal Dredge and Fill Permit. Excavation in a floodplain or wetland area that exposes additional water surface area requires an augmentation plan to prevent injury to senior water rights. Pumping ground water and washing water into trenches or ponds that percolate directly to the water table may cause pollution of down- stream domestic water sources. Page E-1 At the July 30, 1979 meeting between Velma Frank, her attorney and the Division of Wildlife representatives, the Division of Wildlife was left with the impression any lakes developed by the gravel operation would become part of the permanent easement now in effect. The easement requires that the pond would be open to public hunting, fishing and trapping. Page E-1 The Division of Wildlife concurs with the SCS recommendation of a 4:1 slope for pond banks (see SCS report) . Page F-1 The meeting of July 3D, 1979, as referred to in paragraph two of page F-1 did occur as stated. As requested by Mr. Bosley, the Division of Wildlife's concerns were spelled out in Ron Desilet's letter of July 30, 1979. Page F-1 Mrs. Velma Frank advised the Division of Wildlife that long range plans include mining all of the economically feasible gravel bearing portions of the land owned by Mrs. Frank, not just the 9.9 acres now requested, and our request for information covers the 180 acres mentioned in Mr. Bosley's letter of September 10, 1979. Ms. Vicki Traxler Page Three January 7, 1980 Page F-1 A phone call to Ron Desilet from Mrs. Frank is the only contact we have had with Mrs. Frank or her attorney since Mr. Bosley's letter of September 10, 1979. Mr. Desilet advised Mrs. Frank we would comment on the plan for 180 acres of potential gravel mining on the land covered by the permanent easement now in effect as soon as received. To date we have not received a plan for the 180 acres, as we requested. Page F-1 The Division of Wildlife cannot grant releases of the provisions of a permanent easement without a plan for the total area involved in the permanent easement and as such do not recommend approval of the present application for a Special Use Permit for the 9.950 acres now being considered. The proposed mining of 180 acres of wetlands area adjacent to the Poudre River could be a major negative environmental impact and should be addressed, in total, in an Environmental Impact Statement. Page F-1 Another issue discussed at the meeting between Mrs. Frank and the Division of Wildlife was her desire to deepen and straighten the river channel to alleviate flooding. Gravel operations in the river channel would require federal permits for Dredge and Fill and would violate the permanent easement provisions. Page F-7 The permanent easement between Mrs. Velma Frank and the Division through of Wildlife dated December 19, 1967, is included in the Special Use F-10 Permit application on pages F-7 through F-10 and is self-explanatory. Of particular concern in this situation are sections 5, regarding vegetation removal and section 6 regarding the permanent nature of the agreement.

It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that this proposed operation is in compliance with the provisions of Sections 3. 3 (E) (2) and 6 . 1 (3) of the Weld County Zoning Resolution. The proposed use will be compatible with the surrounding area, in harmony with the character of the neighborhood and existing agricultural uses, compatible with the future development in the area and will not adversely affect the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the area and the county. This determination is based upon the following: A. It is the opinion .of the Planning Commission that open-cut mining operations as outlined and controlled in the Operations Standards will minimize impacts on surrounding uses and the area to the greatest extent possible and provide adequate protection of the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the area and the county.

(1) of the Weld County Subdivision Regulations for a building permit on an illegal parcel LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Tract 6 , Aristocrat Ranchettes Subdivision LOCATION: 2 miles northeast of Fort Lupton APPEARANCE: Jack Vaughn DISCUSSION: Mr. Otis first asked that Section 13.C.

Access will be to County Road 13 . There being n questions at this time Tom Honn read the Planning Staff ' s recommendatio-i for approval and the Operations Standards into the record. Darrell Todd of the Division of Wildlife then stated the department ' s opposition to 11 this proposal because there is a permanent easement on this site. Min 'pg or any other activity that disturbs vegetation and/or changes the curr nt use of the land covered by the permanent easement is a violation of th4t easement. Bob Bosley, attorney for the Frank ' s , stated that they willi/be working with the Division of Wildlife and cooperate with them to resole the situation. Some discussion followed regarding access to the site. MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to recommend approval based on the Planning Staff ' s recommendation with the Development Standards to they Board of County Commissioners . Motion by Jim Gilbert, seconded by Frnk Suckla. A vote of "aye" was cast by Bette Kountz, Frank Suckla, Jerry Kiefer, Fred Otis, Jim Gilbert, Don Billings , Bob Ehrlich, and Chuck Carlson. PLICANT: Larry Linder Tape 9 - Sides 1 and 2 CASE NUMBER: S-170 : 79 : 15 SUBJECT: Preliminary Plan - Linder Subdivision LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Pt. SW4, Section 31, T5N, R65W LOCATION: Adjacent to the northwest edge of the Town of LaSalle on 1st Avenue , Planning Commission Ml.,,utes Page 4 January 15 , 1980 APPEARANCE: Larry Linder DISCUSSION: This subdivision is proposed on approximately 8 acres creating 34 lots . He stated he is in complete agreement with the conditions of approval recommended by the Planning Staff, but would request that item 6 .d. regarding dedicated public right-of-way in the floodplain shall when constructed have their travel portions elevated to equal or above the 100 year floodplain elevations in order that all lots may have access during a 100 year flood be eliminated. This was defined in a letter from the Colorado Water Conservation Board on November 14, 1979 . He feels this is necessary because of the concern for engineering and the effect that implementing such a recommendation would have not only upon the adjacent landowner, but also upon the lots themselves . Discussion followed in this regard. John Leichty, attorney representing Mr. and Mrs . George Leggett, owners of Valley Packing Company, stated that although they have no objection to the proposed subdivision, they do have several concerns . These concerns are that they would like to suggest diverting the existing sewer easement so that it runs between Lots 28 and 29 instead of down the middle of Lot 29 . He also stated that there could be some potential problems with the existing packing plant near residential housing and and impacts that could result. Discussion then followed regarding the elevation of structures being at least 1 foot above the 1973 100 year flood elevation. It was suggested by Mr. Billings that this be amended to state that top of footings of all structures shall be at least 1 foot above the 1973 100 year flood elevation. . . instead of first floor elevations. . . MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to eliminate item 6 . d. of the Planning Staff' s recommendation for condition of approval; also to amend item 6.e. to state "top of footings" of all structures shall be at least 1 foot above the 1973 100 year flood elevation. . . instead of "first floor elevations" . Motion by Jim Gilbert, seconded by Don Billings . All present cast a unanimous vote of "aye" to amend these changes. MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to recommend approval with the amended changes based on the Planning Staff ' s recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners . Motion by Jim Gilbert, seconded by Don Billings . A vote of "aye" was cast by Bette Kountz, Frank Suckla, Jerry Kiefer, Fred Otis , Jim Gilbert, Don Billings and Bob Ehrlich. Chuck Carlson cast a "no" vote because he feels it is getting too close to the packing plant and encroaching on other people ' s business. Consider a recommendation to amend Section 3. 3.E.4 . of the Weld County Zoning Resolution which pertains to uses which are permitted upon granting a Special Use Permit by the Board of County Commissioners, specifically agriculturally service establishments . DISCUSSION: Tom Honn stated that as a result of interest expressed by the public during the past several months from individuals who either operate or were interested in establishing agricultural service establishments has encouraged the creation of an acceptable mechanism Planning Commission ML___tes Page 5 January 15, 1980 to allow such uses in accord with the general concepts of the County Comprehensive Plan. The recognition of the problem by the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners prompted the staff to research and recommend the amendment of Section 3. 3.e. , Special Use Permit, in the Agricultural Zone District. Discussion followed in regard among the Planning Commission members . It was suggested that "on a fee or contract basis" be eliminated from this section also. MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to recommend eliminating "on a fee or contract basis" . Motion by Jim Gilbert, seconded by Don Billings . All present cast a unanimous vote of "aye" . MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to recommend approval of the amendment of Section 3. 3.E.4 by adding a new subsection t. to the Board of County Commissioners_ Motion by Fred Otis, seconded by Jim Gilbert. A vote of "aye" was cast by Bette Kountz, Frank Suckla, Jerry Kiefer, Fred Otis, Jim Gilbert, Don Billings , Bob Ehrlich and Chuck Carlson. There being no further business the meeting was adjourned.
