Dear Mr. Acklam:
Thank you for your letter of May 26. The Department of Planning Services'
staff has reviewed the proposal of Rocky Mountain Railcar to relocate the
access rail line and has determined that this proposal would not be a
material deviation from the plans as approved. No amendment to USR-821
would be required. We will, however, require the following items:
1) A letter from Panhandle Eastern Pipeline stating they have no
objection to the rail crossing their gas line easement.
2) A recorded deed showing Mr. Maynard's ownership of the new
property.
3) As-built plans showing the actual location of the rail after
the rail has been constructed.
•
Please call me if you have any questions.
Sincerely yours,
Lanell J. Swanson

RE: Revision to U.S.R. No. 821 _
Ms. Swanson;
Attached please find a blue-line copy of the recorded plat
for U.S.R. No. 821. On this plat, shown in red, is the location
of possible new access rail lines to this parcel. We would request
that the planning staff review the proposed access and comment on
the best procedure for us to follow to have this approved. If the
_ location of the new access rail, is approved, the existing rail line
access shown on the recorded plat would not be constructed.
At the time Of preparation of U.S.R. No. 821, Mr. Maynard
of Rocky Mountain Railcar was in contact with the owners of the
property to the east. At this time, they could not reach a mutual
agreement to cross this land for rail line access. - Since this
time, Mr. Maynard has purchased this entire parcel of land to the
east, approximately 600 acres. It has been determined that with
the location of the proposed access, it would save a tremendous
amount of construction costs due to the fill material that would be
needed for the rail bed. Contact has been made with Panhandle
Eastern Pipeline and the crossing of the rail over their gas line
would cause no problems. A letter of approval from Panhandle
Eastern can 'be submitted if requested. Documents showing that Mr.
Maynard now has title to this property can also be submitted. If
staff can approve this without going through the public hearing
process, a legal description will be prepared and submitted for
that land where the proposed rail -lines will be located. It is
hopeful that we can make an attachment to the now recorded plat
showing this proposed change.
We will await staffs decision on Our request and look forward
to hearing from you. -

- Acklam & Associates,_ Inc.

Dear Mr. Maynard:
Thank you for your letter of April 25. The Board of County Commissioners
has reviewed it and has decided to issue the grading permit prior to meeting
the conditions of approval on the Special Review permit. You may apply for
the grading permit at any time. Our department will obtain the necessary
signatures from the Board of County Commissioners when application for the
grading permit has been made.
If you have any questions, please call me.

Dear Mr. Schuett; •
•
Rocky Mountain Railcar, Inc: is in dire need to expedite the
issuance of the grade permits for the Hudson property. To
our understanding the only thing we need to obtain the grade
permits, are the approved well permits . The application for
the well permits has been submitted to the Division of Water
Resources - Department of Natural Resources - 818 'Centennial
Building - 1313 Sherman St. , Denver, Colorado 80203. Confirm-
ation can be obtained from Mr. John W. Bilisoly, Engineering
Technician, Division of Water Resources at' (303) 866-3581.
I, Ron Maynard, is requesting the staff of the Weld County
Planning Department to waive the requirement to have the well
permits approved before I can obtain a grading permit. Please
understand I am seeking grading permits only and am not re-
questing any building permits. I will submit all required
plans and documents, including the approved well permits, when
I am ready to obtain building permits. Also, I will not hold
• Weld County liable in case the well permits do not get approv- '
ed. Rocky Mountain Railcar, Inc. would like to begin excava-
tion on the Hudson property as soon as possible.
Thank you for your concern in this matter.

RE: Rocky Mountain Railcar
We have reviewed your erosion control plan for the above
referenced project. With the sandy nature of the soils , we
would again stress the importance of maximizing residues for
erosion control . If it is decided to plant a permanent
cover of native grasses , then a sorghum cover should be
planted sometime in June with the grasses being planted in
November. It would be highly recommended to seed the swales
to permanent grasses in order to give them adequate
protection from erosion .
If your plan is followed , adequate erosion control should
result. At this time , we concur with and approve your plan .
If we can be of further assistance , please feel free to
call .
Sincerely,
Hello
