This is the sixth annual review under the long- term permit granted on April 8, 1998, by Resolution No. 98-64. Annual reviews have not occurred every year as several times the former owner /operator, Robert Congdon, failed to provide any information for a review and there were several years when there was virtually no mining activity taking place. The last annual review was in January 2004. The Applicant also is requesting that the Board formally acknowledge the transfer of operations to a new owner/operator, Elbram Stone Company LLC. This hearing received public notice in the Aspen Times, and specific notice was sent to the Swiss Village Homeowners Association, to the USFS, and the Crystal River Caucus. APPLICANT: Elbram Stone Company LLC APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE: Walter E. Brown III, Brown & Willis, LLP, Attorneys at Law LOCATION: Avalanche Creek, 10 miles south of Carbondale (National Forest Land) ZONING: RS-30 PUD BACKGROUND: On Apri127, 1993, the BOCC approved Resolution No. 93-70 for a five year Special Use Permit for Robert Congdon (White Banks Alabaster Mine) to quarry and remove alabaster from Site 1 of the White Banks Alabaster Mine. The Board held the first annual compliance review of the project and permit on February 1 1, 1998. On April 8, 1998, the BOCC approved the Applicant's request for along- term permit (through the year 2022) by Resolution No. 98-64. This resolution requires annual ooooo~ ~` Z3 reviews. The first annual review was held by the BOCC on February 14, 1999, the second on March 22, 2000, the third on March 14, 2001. No materials were submitted for an annual review in 2002. The fourth annual review was held May 14, 2003. The fifth was held January 14, 2004. The mining operations were found to be in compliance with the long-term permit in these previous cases. No annual review has been held since 2004. The 2004 approval (Res. No. 003-2004) allowed far cone -time trial winter operations period during 2004, and set some additional conditions on blasting. The winter operations did not take place, and approval for winter operations has expired. According to the Resolution of long- term permit, the BOCC is to consider the degree to which the permittee has complied with all the terms and special conditions of the permit and to assess the need for any new or changed conditions. ANNUAL COMPLIANCE REVIEW: The Applicant has not submitted any information indicating compliance or noncompliance for the 2006 season. There have been only limited operations at the mine since 2003, and no complaints have been received by staff since 2003. The Applicant is asking that the Board acknowledge the presence of a new owner/operator. No changes to the County permit are currently being requested. The County's long term permit runs with the land and is not specific to Robert Congdon. The Applicant has not requested any amendments to the County approval. REFERRAL COMMENTS: The Crystal Caucus did not respond. The Forest Service (USFS) did not provide comments, but staff has had phone conversations with Mike Dunn in the Denver USFS office. Swiss Village comments are attached. According to Mike Dunn of the USFS the new owner/operator has met on site with the USFS and has agreed to operate under the existing Forest Service "Plan of Operations" for the mine. This Forest Service Plan expires in two years, and a new Plan of Operation will need to be submitted and approved. The County approval requires the Applicant to simultaneously submit to the County any plans or amendments submitted to the USFS. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the BOCC approve a motion accepting the annual review for the White Banks Alabaster Mine for 2006, acknowledging the new owner/operator as Elbram Stone Company LLC, and approving operations for another year under the terms of BOCC Resolution No. 9~-64 as amended by BOCC Resolution No. 49-2000 which changed the annual report submission deadline to December 15, and by Resolution No. 003-2004 which set conditions for blasting on site and hours of operation, all as outlined in the attached draft resolution. ®®~~'~ ~.

Galena Aspen, CO 81611 Dear Mr. Clarke: Re: White Banks quarry Annual Review & Transfer of Operations With regard to the hearing on May 23, 2007 concerning the White Banks quarry, this will confirm that my clients will appear personally on behalf of their company, Elbram Stone Company LLC. Also, we have learned that your permit files contain a number of letters and other correspondence pertaining to the mine operations in the past. I would sincerely appreciate it if you would allow my paralegal staff assistant, Priscilla Prohl, to copy some of those so that we can address any concerns of neighbors or the Board. She will also copy prior notices of hearings for our records and any resolutions per~aining to fne inine operations in the past so we can abide by permit conditions. Again, I want to reiterate that my clients will close on the transaction before anything is done with this mine and that the former owner,lVlr. Congdon, will no longer be an owner nor in the management of the mine. We are going to consult with him because he is familiar with the site, but he will have no ownership or management control.

Also, we have learned that your permit files contain a number of letters and other correspondence pertaining to the mine operations in the past. I would sincerely appreciate it if you would allow my paralegal staff assistant, Priscilla Prohl, to copy some of those so that we can address any concerns of neighbors or the Board. She will also copy prior notices of hearings for our records and any resolutions pertaining to the mine operations in the past so we can abide by permit conditions. Again, I want to reiterate that my clients will close on the transaction before anything is done with this mine and that the former owner, Mr. Congdon, will no longer be an owner nor in the management of the mine. We are going to consult with him because he is familiar with the site, but he will have no ownership or management control. Kindest regards, Walter E.

When we spoke last week, you indicated that you did not really have any additional information regarding this proposal other than the letter from Brown c4c Wills, LLP dated March 28; 2007; and consequently, I will not be able to comment on specifics and for now will reiterate areas of concern that are ongoing. ^ Protectio.n of wildlife and wildlife habitat, particularly winter range ^ Water availability and water quality issues ^ Reasonable hours of operation ^ Noise and fugitive dust control issues ^ Night lighting and mitigation of light pollution ^ Additional heavy equipment/truck traffic impacts to Highway 133 and CR10 ^ Previous proposals to house workers on the site ^ Concerns over past lack of compliance of the operator with conditions of permit ^ Potential 1'or increased wildfire danger from industrial operations ^ Compatibility of operations with primarily recreational totu~ism and residential aspects of the area Additionally, I would like to reiterate our ongoing concern that potential blasting associated with mining activities on the site poses a very real hazard of increased rockfall in the Swiss Village and Crystal River Estates areas. Our subdivision predates the mine by approximately 25 years. The former operator of the mine acknowledged on the record at a prior Pitkin County BOCC meeting that he witnessed rockfall. on the slopes above our neighborhood "all the time". Pitkin County has identified the slopes above our subdivision as susceptible to avalanche danger. '\-C'" ~ ,.t~,.,, .. ~,,,,,~ ~~ ~~,,.~,~„ 5/1D/2007 8:59 AM FROM: Fax TO: 99205939 PAGE: 003 OF 003 We also strongly request the support of Pitkin County in keeping in place the seasonal closure that was a condition of the original USFS approval. This condition along with DOW winter closures has helped to pxotect an exceptional winter range far elk and bighorn sheep and provided quiet winter recreational opportunities, both of which are ' becoming a scarce commodity in our rapidly growing valley and state. Finally, we urge the Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners to support public involvement with any proposals for this area with respect to the White River National Forest and/or the Bureau of Land Management. Thank you for your ccusideration.
