Caucus for consideration and for possible incorporation into the Woody Creek
Master Plan;
B. Final grading and concept landscaping plans and scenic perspectives from Highway
82 and locations within Woody Creek including the Braun residence;
C. Exploration of a conservation easement on the property (specifically on the North
side of the property), provided the conservation easement is compatible with highest
and best use alternatives presented in the Plan;
D. Exploration and consideration of leaving a natural berm on the north side of the
currently approved mining boundary, feasibility yet to be determined;
E. Analysis of the potential for substitution of gravel deposits to the South of the Elam
property thereby increasing the mining boundary from the Braun residence beyond
the currently approved 480' setback. If feasible and agreed upon, then amendment
applications would be made to the mining boundary;
F. If the master plan is . completed by January 15, 2016, it shall be provided to the
BOCC for consideration at the 2016 Annual Review hearing.
9. Condition #8 of BOCC Resolution No. 052-2009 requires that only one (1) employee and his
family may remain onsite at the pit year round for security. Elam has represented that from
time to time, two (2) RV campers may be located at the pit so that two (2) employees can
split time monitoring the pit for security. Two (2) employees are needed so that when a
security employee has a day off, coverage can still be maintained. The BOCC acknowledges
that this is acceptable.

MEMO
MEMORANDUM
TO: Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners
THRU: Cindy Houben, Community Development Director
FROM: Mike Kraemer, Plannerl"niMK--
SUBJECT: Elam Construction, Incorporated, Special Use Permit Annual Review for the 2015
Operating Season
DATE: March 23rd, 2016
SUMMARY:
On October 11, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners approved a 16 acre expansion and a 20 year
extension of the Special Use Permit for the Elam Construction, Sand and Gravel Pit and Asphalt/ Hot
Mix/ Concrete Plant pursuant to BOCC Resolution No 129-2006 (Rec. No. 530725). This expansion
area is called Phase 2. As a condition of this permit, the County required an annual public hearing for the
operator to demonstrate compliance with the conditions of the permit, for the County to require
corrective measures or to impose new conditions, and to provide an opportunity for citizen comment on
the operations. This 2006 approval was subsequently vacated by a judicial proceeding and remanded to
the BOCC for further findings due to the presence and unaddressed impact to a residence owned by the
Brauns that exists 480' from the expansion area (District Court Order Case Number P06 CV 230).
In 2009, the BOCC heard the request for an expansion of the Vagneur Pit and to maintain the terms of
the operation for 20 years. This resulted in BOCC Resolution No. 052-2009 (Rec. No. 563795) which
granted approval of the request, specifically addressing District Court Order Case Number P06 CV 230.
BOCC Resolution made specific findings regarding a 1000' setback requirement from the residence that
is 480' from the expansion area. Resolution No. 052-2009 required some additional items be addressed
at the annual review for Phase 2 of the operation.
The pit received two separate BOCC approvals in 2012. Due to multiple paving projects awarded to
Elam in 2012, the Applicant requested that the approved mining method in the expansion area be
amended so that mining could occur at a faster rate. Specifically, the Applicant requested to use a larger
dozer and track hoe to mine material at a faster rate. The BOCC approved this amendment pursuant to
BOCC Resolution No. 36-2012 (Rec. No. 588258).
The Applicant has also received 5 year Special Review approval for a commercial snow dump operation
that will expire this winter season, pursuant to BOCC Resolution No. 16-2011. As required by the
Resolution, soil testing results were submitted and the snow dump was found to be not in compliance
with adopted standards and Elam did not operate as a commercial snow dump for the 2015/2016 winter
season. The Elam 5 year snow dump permit expires at the conclusion of the 2016 winter and a new snow
dump permit is required to operate next winter.
APPLICANT: Elam Construction, Incorporated.
9/10
APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE: Jon Mueller and Mark Gavell
LOCATION: Elam Construction Sand and Gravel Pit and Asphalt/Hot Mix/ Concrete Plant, 7911
Upper River Road, Woody Creek.
ZONING: RS -20.
PROCESS: This review is to assess Elam's year 2015 compliance with the standards set in Resolution
No. 0052-2009 and last year's annual review approved pursuant to BOCC Resolution No.038-2015.
REFERRAL COMMENTS:
This item was referred to the Woody Creek Caucus and the Environmental Health Department (EH).
Woody Creek Planning Commission Comments can be viewed as Attachment A. EH comments will be
viewed as Attachment C.
ANNUAL REVIEW CRITERIA:
Resolution 052-2009 requires review of the following_
1) Condition 5A - Submit a drainage plan for the eastern edge of the Phase 2 mining area
Staff Response: This has been done and approved by the Planning Engineer in 2010.
2) Condition 18 states: "The Applicant shall control dust to be substantially the same or less than 14.0
pg/cu. meter of dust at the 480' residence under normal operating conditions. To ensure this, the
Applicant shall water haul roads 4 times per day during dry conditions and water the northern portion of
Phase 2 within 1000' of the residence, as needed during mining operations ".
Staff Response: Staff did not receive any dust complaints in 2015. Staff has no reason to believe that
watering of the haul roads is not occurring.
3) Condition 19 states:
"To mitigate additional noise impact, the Applicant shall maintain a 15'— 25' natural berm along the
eastern facing slope isolating the mining area from the 480' residence to reduce noise. The Applicant
shall also limit the use of the Cat 966 loader or similar machine to at or below the 7403 elevation in the
northern area of Phase 2, where the former topsoil stockpile was to be located, or whatever elevation is
necessary to ensure the noise at the 480' residence does not exceed 48dB(A) ".
Pursuant to BOCC Resolution No. 36-2012 (Rec. No. 588258) The following language was added to
condition # 19 of BOCC Resolution No. 052-2009:
A. The Applicant shall be allowed to mine material in Phase 2 expansion area
using the following machines:
1. One (1) Cat 345 B Track hoe and three (3) Volvo A30 rock trucks, Or
2. One (1) Cat 966 loader and one(]) Cat D9N Dozer.
Page 2 of 6
h
B. The following stipulations shall apply to these machines to ensure that the
48dB(A) noise level at the residence that is 480' from the Phase 2 expansion
area is not exceeded:
1. When using the Cat 345 Track Hoe, the middle of the radiator of the
machine shall always be a minimum of 9.5 vertical feet from the top of
the natural berm, as the excavation moves toward the north limit of the
permit area.
2. When using the Cat 966 Loader, the middle of the radiator of the
machine shall always be a minimum of 18 vertical feet from the top of
the natural berm, as the excavation moves toward the north limit of the
permit.
3. When using the Cat D9 Dozer, the middle of the radiator of the machine
shall always be a minimum of 47.8 vertical feet from the top of the
natural berm, as the excavation moves toward the north limit of the
permit.
These numbers were calculated using the best engineering methods to obtain
the required limit of 48 d(B)A at the residence 480' from the Phase 1
expansion area. If later measurements show that the estimates are
inaccurate, the Cat 966 or the Cat D9 machines could move up or down
slightly to ensure that the 48 d(B)A threshold is not exceeded at the subject
residence.
Staff Response: Staff has been on site and viewed the expansion area and the "berm". Staff has no
reason to believe the loader and track hoe are not being used at the approved elevation level.
The Applicant has tested noise at Elam property lines in accordance with the County approved monitoring
protocol. The noise test results are affixed to the application. The maximum dB(A) at the property line for
the Elam operation is 55 dB(A). Many test results showed that readings were incompliance with the
55dB(A) requirement. Some test results, specifically at points 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, exceeded the 55dB(A). The
Applicant states that some of the elevated noise readings are attributable to spring runoff, increased flows of
Woody Creek, high winds, lawn equipment being operated at the neighboring property, and construction of
the Source Gas pipeline. The remaining tests were in compliance with the 55 dB(A) requirement at the
Elam property line. Monthly averages were below the maximum threshold except for the month of May at
location 3. Staff did not receive any noise complaints in 2015, though the 480' neighbor to the north did
state that equipment can be heard. Elam representatives will be available at the hearing to speak to this
aspect of the review.
4) Condition 20 states: "To mitigate additional noise impact the Applicant shall mine the expansion area
from south to north and always push materials down to the existing pit area leaving the east facing slope
intact until the end of the life of the expansion area ".
Staff Response: It is evident this is occurring.
5) Condition 21 states: "To mitigate the additional noise and visual impact the Applicant shall mine the
expansion area from west to east leaving the east facing slope intact until the end of the life of the expansion
area ".
Page 3 of 6
I�
Staff Response: It is evident this is occurring.
BOCC Resolution 038-2015 also required the following action items from previous years:
Condition 3 states: On or around May 30, 2015, a landscape plan will be presented by Elam
to be reviewed by the "Braun's" (neighbors living within 480' of the permitted mining area
with an address of 0401 Woody Creek Road) and Pitkin County. The final details of the
landscaping plan and the timeframe will be agreed upon by the affected parties on or before
June 30, 2015 or the affect parties will bring the matter back to the BOCC This landscape
plan will be developed and oversight administered by Kim Bock Certified Arborist, Prima
Plant Service. Elam and the Braun's acknowledge Kim Bock as a reputable expert arborist
and agree to consider her recommendations for the landscape plan. The plan shall contain
the following, and be installed in accordance with a schedule recommended by Kim Bock.
a. A planting plan of evergreen or other screening type vegetation in the bottomlands or
wetlands area directly adjacent to the Braun property will be agreed upon;
b. Dead or dying trees will be removed for wildfire safety concerns to the extent
recommended to also allow for the continuance of a reasonable level wildlife habitat;
c. Kim Bock shall be hired to provide contractor oversight and continued monitoring of
planting establishment on a frequency required to ensure successful establishment.
d. A planting plan along the north side of the mining area directly in front of the Braun
property, generally along the access road at the base of the future mining area, shall be
agreed upon. This planting plan shall include trees that are of the estimated height of
maturity of trees that were to be planted per the 2009 and revised 2013 Elam landscape
plan approved by Pitkin County. If trees of that size are not feasible, or could not survive,
given the professional estimation of the landscape professionals, then an alternative plan
shall be presented which would include, but not be limited to, an additional amount of
trees or a combination of additional trees and other mitigation techniques.
Staff Response: Staff met with the Elam representatives and the Brauns extensively in the time between
the 2015 and 2016 annual review hearings. A landscaping plan has been developed, approved by all
parties, and implemented to satisfy the requirements of this condition. This landscape plan was
developed with consultation from Kim Bock, landscape professional, and specifically addressed the
maturity requirement in subsection "d" above. A total of 86 exist on site today and are healthy. The
final approved landscaping plan can be viewed as Attachment B. Additionally Staff has entered into a
separate agreement with Elam for upkeep and maintenance of the landscaping to ensure that the plantings
do not fail. Part of this agreement with Elam was to require a cash bond so that if all or portions of the
landscaping fail and Elam does not replace the failed trees, Pitkin County has money and access to
property to conduct the work.
In tandem with the landscaping discussions, Staff, the Brauns, and Elam representatives have also
discussed the possibility for Elam to create a long term plan for the pit, which would be called a parcel
specific "master plan". The purpose of this master plan would be to provide Pitkin County and the
neighbors a comprehensive look at the future uses for the Elam property and provide a certain degree of
certainty as to the intentions of the Elam gravel pit business. This long term plan would include
information on possible future expansion areas, possible areas for conservation, and ultimately the final
cover and use of the mined pit area. Elam representatives have verbally stated they are working on this
Page 4 of 6
y
master plan and that it may be available for the annual review hearing. Staff, Elam, and the Brauns will
be available to discuss this topic if the Board desires.
Condition 4 states: For the duration of the 2015 mining season, no mining shall be allowed
beyond the surveyed 1, 000' distance from the Braun residence. It is also acknowledged
that mining has already occurred beyond the 1, 000' distance from the Braun residence as
depicted in Attachment B
Staff Response: Elam complied with this requirement for the 2015 mining season. If the Board accepts
the 2016 Elam annual review and finds it in compliance with the conditions of the 2009 and 2015
Resolutions, Elam would be able to mine into the 1000' distance from the Braun residence for the 2016
mining season.
Condition 5 states: The Applicant shall continue to implement the thistle elimination plan.
Staff Response: The Applicant submitted this plan in 2015 and implemented the thistle reduction
measures. The thistle has been treated and has been greatly reduced. The Woody Creek Caucus has
commented on the application and had concerns with the type of pesticides being used to eradicate
thistle. Staff has passed along the Caucus's comments to the Pitkin County Weed Specialist for
comment.
Condition 6 states: "The truck parking area adjacent to the RV parking area shall have no more
than 12 trucks parked on site, at one time, and there shall be no more than 12 plug-in block
heaters. Idle time shall be limited to the length of time necessary to properly prepare the vehicle
for use. "
Staff Response: Staff has not received any complaints regarding this requirement. There are only 12
plugs in blocks at the RV parking area.
Condition 47 states: "In accordance with Environmental Health regulations, the leaking 3rd
septic tank servicing the trailer park for seasonal workers shall be addressed prior to workers
arriving for the 2015 mining season. "
Staff Response: The Applicant has submitted a report and has documented that the tank was removed
prior to the 2015 mining season.
Condition #8 states: "The Applicant shall continue to monitor soil and water pursuant to
Resolution No. 52-2009 and Resolution No. 105-2000 with monthly tests conducted on
the standing water in the pit through October 2015, and the results shall be submitted
with the 2016 annual review. The Environmental Health Department shall review the
sampling process. "
Staff Response: The Applicant has submitted surface water and import soil testing results for the 2015
season. The results are located within the Applicant's submittal packet. Soil samples have been
reviewed and show that the import soils taken into reclaim the mined area (Phase 1) are in compliance
with the established thresholds.
Page 5 of 6
Standing surface water samples are in compliance with the established threshold limits. None of the tests
showed any water samples out of compliance with established threshold standards.
It should be noted that the Caucus has concerns regarding the potential for neighborhood well water
contamination. The Caucus recommends that wells in the surrounding area be tested.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board approve the following motion, "accept the Elam annual report for 2015
operations", subject to the draft resolution.

Mon, Mar 14, 2016 at 3:47 PM
The Woody Creek Caucus District Planning Commission has reviewed the
Elam Sand and Gravel Annual Report for 2015, and we have the following comments to make:
We note that the last four pages of the 2015 Annual Report are records of applications on four different days of
eight different herbicides, as follows: Milestone, Weed Destroy AM -40, Escort, Vista, Hi -Light, Dyen-Amic, Telar
XP, and Plateau. The reports of application of these herbicides are all erroneously labelled Pesticide Application
Records.
We see no mention in the reports regarding the currently accepted methods of reclamation of weed -infested
areas, which involve various combinations of reseeding with competitive grasses and plants, mulching, watering,
fertlizing and shading. Many authorities warn that weed seeds have surprising longevity, into the hundreds of
years, and that excessive application of herbicides may encourage the evolution of resistant varieties. At least one
of the herbicides, Milestone, could interfere with revegetation plans already required by the County, since it
prevents growth of wide -leaf plants for several years.
We note the reports of testing of the surface soil and water, but this does nothing to allay our concern for
contamination of the well water being used at the the Woody Creek Mobile Home Park and other wells in the area,
near to and below the gravel pit. We recommend testing of these surrounding wells, although years of misguided
use of herbicides could be difficult to remedy. We hope that more enlightened reclamation methods will avoid such
contamination.
1:19 PM (2 hours ago)
No complaints have been filed in the last year with the Woody Creek Caucus District Planning Commission
regarding operation of the gravel pit. The applicant, Elam, has historically been a good neighbor and a responsible
commercial operator, and we wish to express our appreciation for their efforts.

From: Kurt Dahl, Environmental Health Department
Date: March 16, 2016
Re: ElamNagneur Gravel Pit Annual Review (2016), (Case P006-16;
Parcel ID #2643-161-02-010)
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY OF RELEVANT PARTS OF APPLICATION: Elam Construction Inc. has submitted
an application for their annual review for the operation at the Vagneur pit.
DISCUSSION: The Pitkin County Environmental Health Department has reviewed the details of
the 2016 Annual Report for the Vagneur Gravel Pit under the authority of the Pitkin County Land
Use Code and the Pitkin County OWTS Regulation.
Resolution No. 052-2009, "Approving the Elam Construction, Inc. Special Review to Expand the
Vagneur Pit," outlines conditions of approval.
A site visit was conducted on March 17, 2016 with Mike Kraemer, Pitkin County Community
Development Department, Kurt Dahl, Pitkin County Environmental Health, and Elam
Construction staff.
--- WATER SUPPLY:
Bottled water for drinking is brought in for employees. Water is hauled in from Mid -Valley Metro
for plumbing within the office trailer.
There is a well (Colorado Division of Water Resources Well Permit Number 41824 -F -R) on the
lower part of the property, but is used for dust suppression; no potable uses. The well is
permitted for pumping that shall not exceed 230 GPM and use is limited to industrial and
irrigation purposes.
--- SEWAGE TREATMENT AND COLLECTION:
Individual Sewage Disposal System (ISDS) Permit 89018 documents a system was approved
for use of the office by 6 employees. This system consists of one 1000 gallon tank and two
deep gravel trenches totaling approximately 100 square feet of absorption area.
ISDS Permit 98063 documents the system was approved for use by 20 RV units during summer
months. This system utilizes a 2000 gallon tank installed in 1998 and two existing 1250 gallon
tanks with effluent distributed via a distribution box to 8 deep gravel trenches for a total of 1820
square feet of absorption area. The area over the absorption field was seeded in the fall of
2008, and large boulders were placed around it to prohibit vehicles from driving over the area. _
Prinlen on Rory le] Pape,
' q
The OWTS serving the RV Camp previously consisted of 3 separate tanks. The third tank in
series was found to be leaking at the 2014 inspection. Based on the current OWTS Regulations,
the total tank capacity of the system was oversized and the system would still meet the sizing
requirements if the leaking tank was removed. Elam decided to abandon the leaking tank "in-
place" instead of repairing it and a letter from CBO, INC, dated April 26, 2015, indicated the tank
was properly abandoned and the effluent filter from that tank was installed on the outlet of the
second tank.
--- AIR QUALITY:
The Environmental Health Office did not receive an air quality complaint in the last year.
Emissions Permits issued by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
include:
X610 Crusher: 97PO0820
V-755 Asphalt Plant: 09PI1168
Vagneur Pit: 13PI388-5
--- NOISE:
The Environmental Health Office did not receive a noise complaint in the last year.
Elam does have a noise sampling protocol and performs daily readings at the northern most
points of the property. Elam staff has previously confirmed in conversation that the company's
noise meter is calibrated each year.
The application indicates there were a few exceedances of the noise regulations and attributes
those spikes to the installation of the natural gas pipe along the western property line. This is a
reasonable statement and conforms to the timeline of the installation and construction of the
pipe. The EH Department issued a noise variance permit to Rocky Mountain Natural Gas, LLC
on September 23, 2015 for testing and moisture removal of the completed pipe.
WATER RESOURCES
The area of the pit used for snow dumping in the winter is on a reclaimed area on the north end
of the pit and is permitted separately from the annual review.
Elam has developed a protocol for sampling both soil and water as part of Elam's Water
Resource Protection Plan.
Soil Sampling:
One composite sample is taken for each 20,000 cubic yards of soil. The soil is tested for the
following constituents:
• Total Recoverable Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TRPH)
• Benzene, toluene, ethylebenzene, and xylenes (BTEX)
• Total RCRA Metals
Pdnw m R W Peyer
/5
Water Sampling:
Water samples are taken from surface water within the floor of the gravel pit. The water is
tested for the following constituents:
• Total Recoverable Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TRPH)
• Benzene, toluene, ethylebenzene, and xylenes (BTEX)
• Total RCRA Metals
Records of the samples were reviewed and all of the results were in compliance with the
allowable applicable standards.
Recommendation: This Department has no objection to continued operation, including
minor amendments.

Subject: Elam thoughts for up coming 2016 review
To: Jody Edwards <jee@kceclaw.com>
To BOCC, Cindy, Mike and Elam,
I sit down to compile my thoughts for the up coming " Elam Annual Review -2016"
We have a mixture of emotions, knowing we have been at this moment since
2006. Also knowing that 2015 , was not resolved.
As , you remember after the initial review the BOCC stopped mining at the 1,000 ft
staked mark, until all planting issues were resolved and in compliance with the 2006 ruling. To be reviewed at a
future meeting.
Cindy and Mike immediately started conversations of good faith and good neighbors, between ourselves and
Elam. The hope was to "land on a solution that honors both and one that Mike and I ( Cindy) can offer the
BOCC." As a result of their efforts we had many meetings, as well as multiple site visits. These meetings did
not just
focus on plantings , but resulted in great dialogues /lists of solutions with the hope of ending years of work and
stress between all parties.
This presentation was never made to the BOCC, after months of meetings from
March- Oct. 2015. The list or " Draft 7.9.2015 was inclusive of good choices for all
The unfortunate loss of Gayle Lyman, Ivan Geer's change of employment, Mark &
John getting up to speed , family illness and the on set of the holidays left our last meeting Oct. 27th 2015
incomplete.
We therefore , would like to present Draft 7.9.2015, and other ideas, possibilities.
We would also like to request that the 2016 mining season or until an established date , remain at the staked
1,000 ft. ( or staked 900 ft. ) to allow for the completion, a solution that honors all parties and respect the time
and energy that went into last year /2015.
"The integrity of the BOCC approval process and adherence to conditions are equally as important from a
community perspective and a quality of like perspective for those individuals affected by those decisions."
Bullet points:
1). Stay at 1,000 ft mark for 2016 mining season until all trees are confirmed viable, after the loss of 7 years
growth.
2).Allowing this time to continue talks, resolve and solve all issues talked during the hours of meetings /site
visits 2015. Those meetings were thoughtful, sincere , understanding and more compassionate than at any other
time since 2006. 1 , respect greatly all the people that put energy and thoughtfulness in to these meetings.
3).Honor the time , money and commitment of all ,to come to a conclusion that will address all issues in the
years ahead - not just plantings but noise and dust.
A hopefully , final conclusion. And not allow this "mistake to happen again."
Truly, explore the south side of Elam property to substitute those deposits from the area mined on Braun's
side, about 100 ft. of mining. Resulting in a separation instead of 480ft. but 580ft. and to round that up to 600ft.
line between
Elam mining and our proper yll Best
5). Leave a 30 ft. natural berm if no change to mining area.
6). Draft 7.9.2015 - Elam Master plan.
7). Conclusion , that would hopefully result in the need not to come back year after year.
8). A side note: No complaints were filled as a result of regular meetings and concerns expressed during those
meeting. Example: email send to Jody
5/22/2015 , not even at 1,000 ft yet,"on that patio and lots of loud banging, clanging,and back up beepers from
the hill." Imagine noise at 480 ft.
Again , I would like to thank all parties for their time , energy and positive
thoughts and solutionsM We are very hopeful , we can continue these discussions in 2016 , for a lasting
conclusion.
Yours,
Bill and Gail Braun

Hello Mike et al Commissioners,
(please feel free to read this message at the open hearing on Wednesday March 23)
This year, there is no person available from our group, the Woody Creek Development Co. to attend the Elam
public hearing on Wednesday 3/23/16. As you probably know our land is adjacent to the gravel pit separated
from it only by Raceway Drive road that runs between.
We would like to remind the Elam group of the agreement that no one is to live permanently on site except the
site manager and specifically no others are allowed to live on site between December 1 and April 1.
Based on observations from this past winter (2015-16) as can currently be seen (it is not yet April 1), there is at
least three mobile home -type trailers/RVs parked in the lot near the water tower and there has been activity there
throughout the winter including the addition via crane of one of at least two propane tanks situated to serve
individual trailers. I believe the site manager lives in the permanent structure at the entrance to the pit and not in
one of the trailers/RVs and not in the lot where the trailers sit. These observations tend toward the conclusion
that the Elam group is not compliant with the agreement.
On another note, as an individual I am supportive of the Woody Creek Caucus members' voiced concerns
regarding the intensive application and varieties of pesticides being used and possible dangerous concentrations
of toxic chemicals be brought when the snow from plowing in dumped there.

Re: Elam Special Use Permit — Annual Review
Dear Commissioners:
As you know, our office represents Gail and Bill Braun, the owners of a residence
adjacent the Elam Gravel Pit. In 2007 you granted approval for an expansion of the gravel pit to
a point that is 480 lineal feet from the Braun residence. Every year Gail and I have to come in to
the annual review of the Elam Special Use Permit and complain about the problems experienced
that year.
Last year, we pointed out that once again (the third time, I believe) the landscaping that
was supposed to provide a visual buffer had largely died. You approved Resolution 038-2015
which provided that Elam would not mine closer than 1,000 to the Braun residence for the 2015
mining season. And you instructed staff and Elam to meet with the Brauns to try to work on
solutions to the on-going problems. Elam, Staff and we meet several tunes last summer and into
the fall. Initially, there was great progress, but there were multiple unavoidable setbacks.
In the end, the landscaping issue appears, for now, to be resolved and the County has
security to insure the replacement of the landscaping in the event it dies yet again. During last
summer and fall there was considerable discussion of a long-range master plan for the gravel pit
so that there would be in place a plan that is acceptable for all and so that the Brauns do not have
to attend annual review hearings to point out new and continuing problems. We request that you
instruct staff and Elam to continue in the discussions started last year so that we may continue
work on the Master Planning effort for the Elam gravel pit.
Very truly yours,
KLEIN COTfrEDWARDS CITRON LLC

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
This MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (the "Memorandum") sets forth the
understanding of Elam Construction, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Elam") and Pitkin County
Colorado ("Pitkin" and together with Elam, the "Parties") regarding the maintenance of planted
trees at the Elam gravel pit (the "Gravel Pit"), pursuant to the revised landscape plan attached
hereto as Attachment A (the "Landscape Plan").
WHEREAS, Pitkin has previously permitted Elam to maintain its permit at the Gravel Pit
pursuant to BOCC Resolution #052-2009, 2009 to plant and maintain trees at the Gravel Pit. This
landscape plan has been amended from time to time since this date;
WHEREAS, Elam planted the trees required in 2009, and pursuant to a site visit on June
8a' 2015 it was determined that approximately 26 trees have died or were needing replacement
with alternative vegetation. Along with an additional planting of 16 "New" trees. Therefore, a total
of 86 trees on site.
WHEREAS, Elam has agreed to, and has already caused WindRiver Trees ("WindRiver"),
to replant the portion of the trees that had died ("Replaced Trees") and Pitkin has required a deposit
to be held in trust for the maintenance of the Replaced Trees (the "De sit'); and
WHEREAS, this Memorandum sets forth the details that the Parties have discussed and
agreed to in relation to the provision of the Deposit.
Deposit Terms
The Deposit, in the amount of THIRTY-FIVE THOUSAND ($35,000) dollars
(Attachment B), will be delivered at the time this Memorandum is executed and will be held in
trust for the maintenance of the Replaced Trees.
Maintenance Requirements
The property owner of the Gravel Pit shall maintain the Replaced Trees in good health in
perpetuity. The status of the Replaced Trees will be judged by Kim Bock, Certified Arborist.
Release or Use of Deposit
The term of the Memorandum shall be THREE (3) years from July 27, 2015 on which the
Replaced Trees were planted. Kim Bock will annually inspect the Replaced Trees and determine
their viability and consistencies with levels of maturity stated in the Resolution #038-2015 set
forth by the Board of County Commissioners (`BOCC"). Kim Bock shall submit landscaping
reports to Pitkin within one (1) week of each inspection for review by Pitkin (the "Landscapine
Reports'). If the Replaced Trees are deemed viable by Kim Bock, then at the end of the term of
this Memorandum, the Deposit will be released. Pitkin will release the deposit to Elam in its
entirety, or its remaining balance if used in the replacement of trees.
If the Replaced Trees die and need to be replaced based on a Landscaping Report, then
Elam may choose to replace any dead Replaced Trees at their own cost and within sixty (60) days
of receiving the Landscaping Report.
If Elam chooses not to replace any dead Replaced Trees, then Pitkin may replace them
using the Deposit to cover any costs incurred for such replacement. Any Deposit remaining after
the dead Replaced Trees are replaced, shall be released by Pitkin to Elam.
Permissions
In order for Pitkin to replace any dead Replaced Trees, Elam hereby grants to Pitkin and
any of Pitkin's assigns, the right to enter the Gravel Pit, for the sole purpose of replacing the dead
Replaced Trees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pitkin must schedule a time with Elam to enter
the Gravel Pit to replace any trees.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Memorandum, effective on the
last date shown below.

3/16/16, 7:16 PM
Bill and Gail Braun <braunranch@gmail.com>
I sit down to compile my thoughts for the up coming "Elam Annual Review -2016".
We have a mixture of emotions, knowing we have been at this moment since
2006. Also knowing that 2015, was not resolved.
Wed, Mar 16, 2016 at 7:14 PM
As, you remember after the initial review the BOCC stopped mining at the 1,000 ft
staked mark, until all planting issues were resolved and in compliance with the 2006 ruling. To be reviewed at a future
meeting.
Cindy and Mike immediately started conversations of good faith and good neighbors, between ourselves and Elam.
The hope was to "land on a solution that honors both and one that Mike and I ( Cindy) can offer the BOCC." As a
result of their efforts we had many meetings, as well as multiple site visits. These meetings did not just focus on
plantings , but resulted in great dialogues /lists of solutions with the hope of ending years of work and stress between
all parties.
This presentation was never made to the BOCC, after months of meetings from
March- Oct. 2015. The list or "Draft 7.9.2015" was inclusive of good choices for all
The unfortunate loss of Gayle Lyman, Ivan Geer's change of employment, Mark &
John getting up to speed . family illness and the on set of the holidays left our last meeting Oct. 27th 2015 incomplete.
We therefore , would like to present "Draft 7.9.2015", and other ideas, possibilities.
We would also like to request that the 2016 mining season or until an established date, remain at the staked 1,000 ft.
to allow for the completion, a solution that honors all parties and respect the time and energy that went into last year
2015.
"The integrity of the BOCC approval process and adherence to conditions are equally as important from a community
perspective and a quality of like perspective for those individuals affected by those decisions."
Bullet points:
1). Stay at 1,000 ft mark for 2016 mining season until all trees are confirmed viable, after the loss of 7 years growth.
2).Allowing this time to continue talks, resolve and solve all issues talked during the hours of meetings/site visits 2015.
Those meetings were thoughtful, sincere, understanding and more compassionate than at any other time since 2006.
I, respect greatly all the people that put energy and thoughtfulness in to these meetings.
3).Honor the time, money and commitment of all, to come to a conclusion that will address all issues in the years
ahead - not just plantings but noise and dust.
A hopefully, final conclusion. And not allow this "mistake to happen again."
4). Truly, explore the south side of Elam property to substitute those deposits from the area mined on Braun's side,
about 100 ft. of mining. Resulting in a separation instead of 480ft. but 580ft. and to round that up to 600ft. line
between
Elam mining and our property!! Best
5). Draft 7.9.2015 - Elam Master plan.
6). Conclusion, that would hopefully result in the need not to come back year after year.
7). Aside note: No complaints were filled as a result of regular meetings and concerns expressed during those

meeting. Example: email send to Jody
'5/22/2015, not even at 1,000 ft yet,"on that patio and lots of loud banging, clanging,and back up beepers from the hill."
Imagine noise at 480 ft.
Again, I would like to thank all parties for their time, energy and positive
thoughts and solutions!I! We are very hopeful we can continue these discussions in 2016, for a lasting conclusion.
Yours,
Gail and Bill Braun

PITKIN COUNTY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
AGREEMENT FOR PAYMENT OF LAND USE APPLICATION FEES
PITKIN COUNTY (hereinafter "COUNTY") and ELAM Lprs&-r2u(_TI oA .3= tU L.
(hereinafter "APPLICANT") AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. APPLICANT has submitted to COUNTY an application for Miqu FtL. &VI Fal Ale
2D15 I&/kW CDAIST&4CMnM AK711VI-IFS (hereinafter, the "PROJECT").
2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that Pitkin County Ordinance No. 012-2015 establishes a fee
structure for land use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a condition precedent to a determination of
application completeness. The fee structure is based on the COUNTY'S policy that development shall pay, in full, the
cost of development review in the COUNTY. Fees have been set to be consistent and fair to the public and to reflect the
expense incurred in providing such services to the public.
3. APPLICANT and COUNTY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed PROJECT, it
may not be possible at the time of application to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the
application.
4. APPLICANT and COUNTY agree that fees charged for the processing of land use applications shall
accumulate if an application includes more than one type of land use review.
5. COUNTY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for COUNTY staff to complete
processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or Board of County Commissioners to
enable the Planning Commission and/or Board of County Commissioners to make legally required findings for project
approval, unless current billings are paid in full prior to decision.
6. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the COUNTY'S waiver of its right to collect full
fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay a base fee in the amount of $�2q8
which is based on_ hours of staff time, and if actual time spent by staff to process the application exceeds the average
number of hours by more than 20%, then the COUNTY will bill the APPLICANT quarterly for the additional time spent.
Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date. APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay
such accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing.

2015 ANNUAL REPORT
Pitkin County, Colorado
January 27, 2016
INTRODUCTION — On August 12, 2009 the Pitkin County Commissioners granted Elam
Construction, Inc. a 20 -year extension to the permit allowing continued operation at the Vagneur
Gravel Pit, with the approval of Resolution No. 052-2009. One of the conditions contained within
the operational permit requires the filing of a written report with the County demonstrating
compliance with the conditions of the permit and the County Land Use Code. The report is
required to contain an estimate of gravel reserves remaining on the site and an inventory of
petroleum products contained on site.
In 2012, Elam requested a Minor Amendment to the Phase 2 mining plan for alternate mining
methods. In addition to the originally approved mining method of utilizing one (1) Caterpillar D9N
Dozer and one (1) Caterpillar 966 loader, Elam requested the use of one (1) Caterpillar 345B Track
Hoe and three (3) Volvo A30 rock trucks to haul the mined material to the processing area in Phase
1. Elam was granted this amendment by BOCC Resolution No. 036-2012.
In 2015, Elam's 2014 Annual Review Report was accepted and entered the 2015 year under
Resolution No. 038-2015 in order to satisfy conditions of the approved Phase 2 expansion area in
Resolution No. 052-2009. The condition relayed that a revised landscape plan and planting of
evergreen and other screening type vegetation shall be implemented.
Major activities, which occurred during 2015 within the existing permitted site include:
• Extraction of gravel deposits. Mining occurred during the months of May through
November.
• Crushing and processing of gravel deposits. Crushing of material occurred during the
months of May through November.
• Stockpiling of extracted and processed gravel.
• Intermittent operation of an asphalt plant.
• Operation of a concrete batch plant.
• Scale and office facilities.
• Re -cycling of asphalt rubble.
• Acceptance of snow
• Development of landscaping plan and planting of trees in northeast corner of property
RECLAMATION — Backfilling and sloping efforts began during the summer of 2000 and continue
as of this date. Approximately 18 acres in the northerly most portion of the pit are being backfilled
and sloped in accordance with the approved reclamation plan. Seeding and Reclamation efforts
continued regularly thorough out 2015 with the pipe line that was installed by Source Gas
Distribution LLC/Rocky Mountain Natural Gas LLC and the reclamation in the northwestern
comer of the property.

FUEL STORAGE AREAS — Two primary fuel storage areas are currently located on the site. The
first is a 1,200 square foot area adjacent to the main office. Elam Construction anticipates on the
removal of these tanks in spring of 2016. The unnecessary tanks will be relocated to facilities that
are in need of such resources. Another fuel storage area is near the concrete batch plant that has
been designated as a fuel storage facility. An asphalt oil tank is located adjacent to the asphalt
plant. Also a diesel fuel tank is located near the portable gravel -crushing unit when on site. All
fuel is stored in aboveground tanks and has secondary containment either by constructed metal
containment or by lined containment dikes to prevent any discharges of fuel from leaving the site
or percolating into the ground. An engineered Spill Prevention, Control and Counter Measure
Plan (SPCC) has been developed for this site. A key element of the SPCC plan includes annual
training for workers at the facility for spill containment and controls in the event that a spill should
occur. Petroleum products stored on site are depicted on the following chart:

LIFE OF MfNING AREA - Several factors affect the life of most sand and gravel operations.
Most notable are the surrounding communities' future gravel, asphalt and concrete needs. Other
factors include:
❑ Local, State, and Federal Economic Trends
❑ Future Local Growth Trends
❑ Major Public Improvement Projects —
Highway & Roads
Rail and Airport
Major School
Major Govemmental Building
❑ Major Commercial Buildings
One method in determining the life of an operation is to evaluate the past demand for gravel
PID #2643-161-02-010

resources. By using the last five years of production at the Vagneur Gravel Pit in conjunction with
the remaining resource, it is forecasted that the gravel within the Phase 1 area was nearly depleted
in 2009. The Phase 2 mining expansion area, which was granted in Resolution 052-2009, will
provide an additional 20 years of resource beyond 2009, depending on local economy. It should
be pointed out that forecasts are based on current and past information. Inherent with any forecast
is a degree of uncertainty.
STATE MINING AND RECLAMATION PERMIT — Elam maintains a reclamation and mining
permit issued by the State Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety.
WOODY CREEK CAUCUS — Representatives from Elam met with members of the Woody Creek
Caucus and Planning Commission as needed during 2015. Elam will continue to meet with the
Caucus and address concerns regarding pit operations in 2016.
NOISE MONITORING — Elam is required to conduct noise monitoring as stated in Condition 5D
of BOCC Resolution 052-2009. The County approved Sound Level Monitoring Protocol states the
following for frequency of monitoring:
Frequency of monitoring:
o initial startup or major adjustments to equipment and/or operations — monitoring
shall occur on a weekly basis for four (4) consecutive weeks.
o Normal operations (beyond initial startup or adjustments) — monitoring shall
occur on a monthly basis.
o Sound level monitoring is not required during months of non -operation (winter)
Since the approval and implementation of the amended mining process in 2012, Elam has made
immense strides in collecting readings for noise monitoring by stepping up the testing frequency.
Due to concerns of increased noise levels at the Braun residence, noise monitoring occurred on a
daily basis at monitoring points 8, 9, and 10, when staff was available (see Figure 1, Appendix A
for Vagneur Pit Sound Level Monitoring Locations). These three points were selected due to
their close proximity to the Braun Residence. Weekly readings occurred at all 11 monitoring
locations when staff was available on site, shown on the map. Elam has continued with this
increased monitoring program in 2015 during times of mining and crushing activities.
Elam has extensive data to support overall compliance with County Mandated noise levels.
Section 6.36.040 of the Land Use Code requires the decibel level at the property line adjacent to
residential areas to be a maximum 55 dB(A) during daytime hours and 50 dB(A) during
nighttime hours. Figure 2, Appendix A demonstrates the average noise level for each of the 11
location points on a monthly basis. During the 2015 season Source Gas Distribution LLC
installed a gas pipeline on the western boundary of the Elam property. Most notable in the sound
level chart are some spikes in the monthly readings which are reflected at points 1-6 in Figure 2.
This spike in the noise readings are attributed by construction and installation of the pipeline,
more specifically the equipment and operating machinery located on the western boundary of the
property. Likewise, Woody Creek typically has amplified readings during periods of high run-off
as noted in Figure 2 at points 7, 8, and 9.
As mentioned above, monitoring points 8, 9, and 10 were collected on a daily basis during times
of mining and crushing. Figures 3, 4, and 5, in Appendix A show a daily summary of noise
PID #2643-161-02-010 3
000019
monitoring results for these three points for the entire season from May 20, 2015 through
November 25.
COMPLAINTS — Elam did not receive or was not aware of any formal complaints during the 2015
season.
WEED MANAGEMENT — Elam continued implementing the approved weed management
through 2015. The site was monitored, and herbicide applied to weeds identified in the Weed
Management Plan three times during 2015 (May, August, and October). Elam contracts with a
private applicator that is certified through the State of Colorado. See Appendix E.
WATER RESOURCE PROTECTION — As part of Elam's Water Resource Protection Plan,
Elam has developed and implemented soil and water sampling/testing protocol to assure the
protection of groundwater. Elam continued the sampling and testing of soil and water throughout
the 2015 season. A summary sheet for both soil and water along with the laboratory data sheets
are provided in Appendix B.
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION — There were several conditions included within Resolution
038-2015 that required action through the 2015 season and/or to be included in this annual report.
These conditions are summarized below:
Condition 3
On or around May 30, 2015, a landscape plan will be presented by Elam to be reviewed
by the "Braun's" and Pitkin County. The final details of the landscaping plan and the
timeframe will be agreed upon by the affected parties on or before June 30, 2015 or the
affect parties will bring the matter back to the BOCC. This landscape plan will be
developed and oversight administered by Kim Bock, Certified Arborist, Prima Plant
Service. Elam and the Braun's acknowledge Kim Bock as a reputable expert arborist and
agree to consider her recommendations for the landscape plan. The plan shall contain the
following, and be installed in accordance with the schedule recommended by Kim Bock.
a. A planting plan of evergreen or other screening type vegetation in the bottomlands or
wetlands area directly adjacent to the Braun property will be agreed upon;
b. Dead or dying trees will be removed for wildfire safety concerns to the extent
recommended to also allow for the continuance of reasonable level wildlife habitat;
c. Kim Bock shall be hired to provide contractor oversight and continued monitoring of
planting establishment on a frequency required to ensure successful establishment.
d. A planting plan along the north side of the mining area directly in front of the Braun
property, generally along the access road at the base of the future mining area, shall
be agreed upon. This planting plan shall include trees that are of the estimated height
of maturity of the trees that were to be planted per the 2009 and revised 2013 Elam
landscape plan approved by Pitkin County. If the trees of that size are not feasible, or
could not survive, given the professional estimation of the landscape professionals,
then an alternative plan shall be presented which would include, but not limited to, an
additional amount of trees or a combination of additional trees and other mitigation
techniques.
PiD 92643-161-02-010
000020
Elam representatives, the Braun's, Kim Bock, and Pitkin County representatives met
several times throughout the duration of 2015. A landscaping plan was finally agreed upon
by all parties as seen in Appendix C after meticulously sorting out what type of species,
location, and number by recommendation by Kim Bock, Certified Arborist (Prima Plant
Service). The trees were planted during the week starting on July 20, 2015. On July 281^,
2015 the plantings were surveyed for location, description and height and caliber readings
as reflected in the landscaping plan. A summary of the site inspection was documented by
Kim Bock on June 8th 2015 it was determined that approximately 26 trees have died or
were needing replacement with alternative vegetation. Along with an additional planting
of 16 "New" trees. Therefore, a total of 86 trees exist on site and continual monitoring of
the plantings will be implemented as part of operation per a memorandum with Pitkin
County.
Condition 4
For the duration of the 2015 mining season, no mining shall be allowed beyond the
surveyed 1,000' distance from the Braun residence. It is also acknowledged that mining
has already occurred beyond the 1, 000' distance from the Braun residence as depicted in
Attachment B.
For the duration of the 2015 mining season Elam limited its excavation to mining phase
2.1 as identified in Appendix D of the 2015 Mining Plan Map.
Condition 5
The Applicant shall continue to implement the thistle elimination
As mentioned above, Elam contracted with a certified herbicide applicator to monitor
weeds and apply required herbicide to noxious weeds. Applications were made on May 15,
Julyl3 and September 28, 2015, see attached Pesticide Application Records.
Condition 7
In accordance with the Environmental Health regulations, the leaking 3rd septic tank
servicing the trailer park for seasonal workers shall be addressed prior to workers arriving
for the 2015 mining season.
Elam removed the tank in question in April 2015 prior to the 2015 mining season. CBO
Inc. Appendix E is a synopsis of the events that occurred for the removal of the 3`d septic
tank.
CONCLUSION — During 2015, Elam Construction, Inc. paved and provided materials for several
construction projects that took place in Pitkin County. Elam continues to work hard to provide a
quality service to Pitkin County and its residents while limiting the disturbance to neighboring
Woody Creek residents. Elam continues to make efforts to remain in compliance with the
conditions of the Conditional Use Permit issued by Pitkin County in order to maintain the best
interest of the public health and safety.

Re: Septic Tank Abandonment — Elam Gravel Pit
Mr. Lyman,
As requested, CBO Inc. provided oversight of the abandonment of the third septic tank in the
series of septic tanks serving the RV Camp. The OWTS serving the RV Camp (Permit 98036)
consists of a 2000 -gallon, single compartment septic tank, a 1000 -gallon, single compartment
septic tank, and the previously existing 1250 -gallon, two compartment septic tank.
The third tank in the series (1250 -gallon tank) had excessive amount debris (concrete, rocks,
and dirt) in the tank. At the time of the annual inspection in 2014, it appeared that this tank may
be leaking. A decision was made to abandon this septic tank.
All septic tanks were pumped by B&R Septic prior to the tank abandonment. The effluent filter
was moved from the third septic tank to the outlet of the second septic tank in the series. There
is some debris on the bottom of the second septic tank. The third septic tank was abandoned
by filling the void with "natural fines" from the pit. Mountain Works abandoned the septic tank.
A copy of this letter must be provided to Pitkin County Environmental Health Department to
verify abandonment of the septic tank.
Sincerely,
Carla Ostberg, MPH, REHS
NAWT Certified Inspector
