Cowan Stair CGS Review No.WE-00-0027 and Dire(tot Dear Mr. Jerman: In response to your request I visited this property to review the plans for development. The application report was included in the referral. One point that should be clarified is the procedure for rerouting the Lupton Bottom Ditch. The mining sequence section of the report states that the ditch will be rerouted in Phase 1, reconstructed before Phase 2, then removed and reconstructed during Phase 3. Will the ditch be operational during each temporary placement? Is it possible to just remove and replace the ditch once, instead of twice? The de-watering discharge location and the two reclaimed water storage ponds themselves are less than 200 ft from the South Platte River at the closest point. The proximity of the ponds to the river poses the possibility that the river may migrate in this direction during flood stage. This scenario would pose a hazard to the petroleum lines on site and the residences to the north. The Mined Land Reclamation Board or the Department of Urban Drainage should review this plan to evaluate what sort of reinforcement may be required in the southeast part of the site. The above issues should be addressed before development begins. Please call me if there are any questions.

The project has been reviewed in accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act under which the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regulates the discharge of dredged and fill material, and any excavation activity associated with a dredge and fill project, in waters of the United States which may include streams, open water lakes, ponds or wetlands. Based on the plans presented, this project will not require a Department of the Army (DA) permit. Although a DA Permit will not be required for the project, this does not eliminate the requirement that other applicable federal, state, tribal, and local permits be obtained if needed. If there are any questions concerning this matter, please call Mr. Terry McKee of this office at 303-979-4120 and reference Corps File No. 200080003. Sincerely, Tim by T.

Everist - Ft. Lupton Sand & Gravel Mine COLORADO The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal. This project falls primarily under the purview of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance Use by Special Review for a gravel mine operation and a processing batch plant. Our comments and requirements are as follows: COMMENTS: L.G. Everist is in the process of obtaining a Flood Hazard Development Permit (FHDP-355) as the site is located within the 100-year flood plain. The applicant is indicating that grading shall be accomplished in such a manner that storm water does not leave the property. Any surface runoff will be directed into the reservoirs that will occupy the property upon reclamation. WCR 18 is designated on the Weld County Transportation Plan Map as a collector status road. The last average daily traffic count in 1996 reflected 355 vehicles in a 24-hour period. REQUIREMENTS: Traffic Impact Studies: All new residential development with an expected ADT>200 and all new commercial developments will be required to submit a traffic study as part of the review process. This study shall include a description of the project, vehicle trip generation and distribution, verification of adequate acceleration, deceleration and storage facilities at all impacted intersections, review of bridge capacity, intersection level of service analysis for existing and proposed conditions and recommendation for needed upgrades to transportation infrastructure to support the development. Designated Haul Route: The applicant shall enter into a Road Maintenance and Improvements Agreement with Weld County Public Works for the designated haul route as they are impacting the county road system. This route may affect US Highway 85 so CDOT will review the Traffic Impact Study and determine upgrades or improvements needed to utilize the intersection at US Highway 85 and WCR 18. Access Road: The temporary access road shall be a minimum of 30 feet wide. The applicant is indicating a paved approach with a minimum width of 24 feet to accommodate two-way traffic and a 40-foot turning radius. The length of the paved approach shall be a minimum of 100 feet. The gate shall be recessed the length of a semi-tractor trailer. No staging or parking will be allowed on WCR 18. The traffic study will determine if accel- decel or left turn lanes shall be required at this location. The remaining portion of the access road will be chemically treated for dust suppressant as determined by the Health Department or the Public Works Department. The existing access is being used to accommodate a house and outbuildings which are not shown on the reclamation plan. Additional information is requested on the access easement if the applicant plans to use the existing easement to access the property or has plans to utilize the temporary access road. If the new road is used, this creates a parcel split. Weld County Public Works recommends that this road be restored to its existing state and be reseeded, eliminating multiple accesses onto the Weld County collector status system. cc: USR-1255 EXHIBIT plan6usr 1 i __ Hello
