Subject : Lewis Farm Sand &Gravel Mine Concerns, USR 1243
Dear Don,
As discussed in our phone conversation today, I am sending some additional information to
address your concerns expressed in your July 12, 2000 letter.
There were only two public hearings in Weld County regarding this case, that you attended,
the Planning Commission and the Commissioner's hearing. We are currently seeking mining
permits through the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board and the Division of Minerals
and Geology, which is what the Public Notice letter of May 31, 2000 was about.
The attached information was submitted in the DMG application regarding nearby wells. The
State Engineer's Office requires consent from well owners within 600 feet to mine a sand &
gravel deposit. Your well should be over 2000 feet upgradient from the mine, far from the
normal area of potential impact. I am enclosing a copy of the Groundwater Monitoring and
Potential Recharge Program, which was submitted to Weld County as one of the conditions
of approval. The intent is to monitor groundwater on-site and off-site during mining
operations, notify the neighbors should significant groundwater drops begin, and work out
solutions before any adverse effects to their wells occur.
The intended truck route will be on WCR 8, eastbound to Highway 85. The road will be
paved, prior to Gravel shipments and the Applicant will participate in Road !.mpro"ement
agreements with the County. A traffic study to determine the effects at Highway 85 is
underway, as another condition of approval.
If you have any other questions, please free to contact me.
Stan Peters, P.E.

Dear Paul,
In response to your"Public Notice" letter of May 31, 2000,we would like the following concerns
addressed:
• We attended one Weld County Planning Commission hearing and one Commissioner's hearing. Were
there any more hearings than the two mentioned?If so, why weren't we notified?
• At both hearings we attended I brought up the concern of our domestic water well. What remedies are
to be taken if any injury is caused to my domestic well during and after excavating of the gravel? This
concern came about because of the injury caused to the domestic and irrigation wells in the area,
during the excavation, of the Rogers Pit west of Brighton on Weld County Road 2,two to three years
ago. The County Commissioners acknowledged this.
• What are the plans to control truck traffic on both WCR 23 and WCR 8?Presently WCR 23 is a hazard
because of high-speed traffic and low speed farm equipment. More truck traffic added to the truck
traffic that already exists would just increase the hazardous conditions.
Respectjvely SubAtted,
Don Rosenbrock
CC: Barbara Kirkmeyer,Weld County Commissioner

GROUNDWATER MONITORING AND POTENTIAL RECHARGE PROGRAM
LEWIS FARMS SAND AND GRAVEL MINE, USR-1243
Groundwater Monitoring
1. Applicant will install the eight groundwater observation wells, within 30 days
of USR approval, on the project site, at the locations shown on the attached
map. These wells will provide a baseline of groundwater depths/elevations in
the area before mining, and during de-watering operations.
2. Applicant will begin monthly groundwater measurements of these wells after
installation, and continue until the end of the reclamation process.
3. Applicant agrees to measure the shallow wells indicated on the attached map
monthly, with the well owners permission, assuming reasonable access for
measurement physically exists at each well facility.
4. Applicant will also monitor the water elevation of the small lake on the Norden
property, just south of WCR 8, near the southwest corner of the mine.
5. Groundwater records will be maintained in the on-site office, and available for
public review during normal business hours.
Potential Recharge Program
1. Based on the groundwater measurements, the Applicant agrees to notify any
well owner of significant groundwater drops due to mining, that may affect the
performance of that well. The intent is to notify the neighbor in advance of a
potential problem, and begin working together on a solution.
2. The Applicant agrees to mitigate the temporary effects of the de-watering
operations on the subject well, using reasonable and cost-effective methods.
3. Mitigation techniques may include providing potable water if required for a
household well, construction of a recharge facility and conveying water to it,
altering the mining and reclamation sequence in that particular area of the
site, etc. Since the solutions tend to be unique to each well location, the
Applicant prefers to reserve some flexibility in selecting the mitigation
technique to be implemented.
