It came to our attention that on 12/22/2020 incorrect versions of Exhibit G and H were uploaded to the DRMS Application Adequacy Review 1 Comments folder in the Document Library.  The correct versions are now in the folder.

We responded to the Adequacy Review comments we received from Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (DRMS) for the Peak Ranch Resource 112 Reclamation Permit Application. Our response has been submitted to the DRMS.  It can be found in the Document Library page on this website. We have divided the response into sections to make them more manageable to download. 

The DRMS has changed the Decision Date for the 112 Reclamation Permit Application from November 17, 2020, to January 15, 2021, due to COVID-19 restrictions and to give their staff more time to review correspondence they received about the application. 

In response to comments about the driving practices and safety programs for Peak Materials’ truck drivers, we added information to our FAQ page to explain the comprehensive safety measures we have in place.

We have added a Frequently Asked Questions page (FAQs page) to our website to share responses to commonly asked questions about the proposed project.

As the project continues, we will continue to update this page.

This week we received notice from the DRMS that our application was accepted and is now under review.  

We submitted the Peak Ranch Resource 112 Reclamation Permit Application to the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (DRMS). While a copy of the application will eventually be available electronically from the DRMS through their website, for your convenience, we are providing access to the application using the links below. We have divided the application into sections based on the Table of Contents. Doing this makes the application more manageable to download. The file size of each document is noted in the link to each document to provide an understanding of the approximate download time of each document.

It should also be noted that if downloading the application is not an option for you, a hard copy of the complete application is on file for public viewing at the Summit County Clerk and Recorder’s Office.
