—FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT—
colorado department of public health and environment

TO ALL INTERESTED GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES AND PUBLIC GROUPS:
As required by guidelines for the preparation of environmental impact statements, an environmental review has been performed on the proposed action below:
Project:    Crested Butte South Metropolitan District
Location:    Crested Butte, Colorado
Project No.:    040012W
Total Cost:    $2,300,000
The project consists of the expansion of the wastewater treatment facility in order to provide for additional capacity of .125 million gallons daily.  The additional capacity is necessary to meet capacity requirements for future, moderate population growth within the 20 year planning period, to comply with CDPHE water quality regulations, and to resolve odor issues. The on-site expansion will include a new integrated fixed-film activated sludge treatment train, a new clarifier, increased pre-equalization basin, and odor control system.  The existing treatment plant building will be expanded to cover the new treatment train.  The proposed treatment technology minimizes the expansion of the site and impacts to neighboring wetlands.  These improvements will be funded in part with a $2,000,000 direct loan at 2% interest through the Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund.
The review process did not indicate that significant environmental impacts would result from the proposed action.  Consequently, a preliminary decision not to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) has been made.  The action is taken on the basis of a careful review of the engineering report, environmental assessment, and other supporting data that are on file in the Water Quality Control Division (Division) of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, and are available for public review upon request.
Comments supporting or disagreeing with this decision may be submitted for consideration to:
Erick Worker, Project Manager
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
WQCD-FSU-B1
4300 Cherry Creek Drive South
Denver, CO 80246-1530
After evaluation of the comments received, the Division will make a final decision; however, no administrative decision will be taken on the project for at least 30 calendar days after release of the Finding of No Significant Impact.
Sincerely,
/s/ Steven H. Gunderson, Director
Water Quality Control Division

—NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING—
CONCERNING ADOPTION OF AMENDMENTS AND MINISTERIAL CHANGES TO THE GUNNISON COUNTY SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT REGULATIONS (to be known as the GUNNISON COUNTY SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT RESOLUTION)

HEARING DATE, TIME AND LOCATION: The Gunnison County Board of Commissioners will conduct a public hearing on Tuesday, August 25, 2009 at 1:00 p.m. in the Commissioners’  Meeting Room of the Gunnison County Courthouse, 200 E. Virginia in Gunnison, to hear public comment concerning the adoption of proposed amendments and ministerial changes to the Gunnison County Special Development Project Regulations, now to be known as the Gunnison County Special Development Project Resolution.  Such amendments and changes are memorialized in Gunnison County Special Development Project Resolution; Draft No. 5, dated July 14, 2009, available for public review in the County Planning Department, upstairs in the Blackstock Government Center at 221 N. Wisconsin St., Ste. D in Gunnison.  The document is also available on the Gunnison County website: http://www.gunnisoncounty.org.
As proposed, generally, the Gunnison County Special Development Project Resolution addresses certain proposed large or government projects. Smaller projects would continue to be reviewed under the Gunnison County Land Use Resolution. 
The proposed Gunnison County Special Development Project Resolution will continue to provide for evaluation of a proposed project on the basis of “performance-based standards.”  Rather than prescribing a series of actions to be taken by the applicant to minimize impacts of a proposal, the proposed Gunnison County Special Development Project Resolution establishes standards that determine acceptable levels of impact to the County. The Resolution would not mandate to an applicant how to “do business” but charges the applicant with responsibility to ensure standards are met during the life and closure of a project, including a detailed plan for monitoring and related costs to ensure compliance and enforcement.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION:  The public is invited to submit oral or written comments at the hearing, or to submit written comments by FAX (970) 641-8585, or by letter to the Gunnison County Board of Commissioners, 200 E. Virginia, Gunnison, CO, 81230, or to the Planning Department, 221 N. Wisconsin St., Ste. D, Gunnison, CO  81230). 
Additional information may be obtained by calling the Gunnison County Attorney’s Office, (970) 641-5300, or by calling or emailing Planning Director Joanne Williams, (970) 641-0360, jwilliams@gunnisoncounty.org .
ADA ACCOMMODATIONS:  Anyone needing special accommodations as determined by the American Disabilities Act may contact the Gunnison County Administration Office, (970) 641-0248 prior to the day of the meeting.
/s/ David Baumgarten, County Attorney and Joanne M. Williams, Director of Planning
