OCT 1 01997 This Department has finished reviewing the sand and gravel mining case you have forwarded to this Department for comment. The proposed gravel mine is located north of Baseline Road and east of WCR 23 1/2. In that same general area, south of Baseline Road and east of Tucson St., Adams County permitted a mine, operated at this time by Hall -Irwin Company, named Tucson Pit, Adams County Case Number 11- 92-C. In deference to citizen sensitivities regarding ground water levels and damages to ground water wells from gravel mines, Adams County's Board of County Commissioners made the permit for the Tucson Pit conditional upon the pit owner providing a signed well protection agreement with well users surrounding the mine. That legally binding well protection agreement included several residents and agri-businesses in Weld County. Hall -Irwin Company has worked with the signatories of the well agreement and, for the most part, has instituted mitigation procedures for well damages. This Department asks Weld County to insure ground water levels, well protection, and water delivery for surrounding well users are protected with procedures to mitigate damages. We suggest that the procedures be in place prior to the start of mining. The application report for this mine does not include a traffic study. Adams County's Public Works Department has indicated that if the haul route chosen for this mine is 168th Ave. (Baseline Road) from WCR 23 1/2 to Highway 85, that it be specified in the permit that no other roads in Adams County be used as haul routes. Specifically, Tucson St., between 168th St. and Highway 7 is not to be used as a haul route. Public Works Department requests a pavement analysis be done to 168th Ave. and that Hall -Irwin demonstrate that their truck traffic will not damage 168th Ave. They suggest that conditions to the Weld County mining permit place Hall -Irwin Construction Company directly responsible for the maintenance of 168th Ave., throughout the life of the mine. Also, 168th Ave. should be overlaid from WCR 23 1/2 to Highway 85 prior to a mining permit being issued by Weld County. BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ELAINE T.
