MEMORANDUM <br />TO: <br />COLOWYO FILE (PERMIT NUMBER C- 1981 -019) <br />FROM: <br />ROB ZUBER <br />SUBJECT: <br />REPAIR WORD ON PRIMARY SPILLWAY OF WORK AREA POND <br />DATE: <br />12/16/2013 <br />In the Hydrologic Balance section of my December inspection report (dated December 13, 2013) <br />I wrote the following: <br />"One problem was observed: the primary spillway at the Work Area Pond has been leaking <br />through the head gate (this had been communicated to DRMS on 12/9/2013). At the time of the <br />inspection, the flume was covered with ice, but due to low temperatures it appeared that no water <br />was flowing through the spillway. Colowyo indicated that this would be sealed in the near future <br />using bentonite. Next year (late spring or early summer) a permanent repair for the spillway <br />should be implemented." <br />On December 16, 2013, Colowyo staff sent me an email with three photo attachments showing <br />the work that has been performed, namely adding bentonite chips around the gate valve structure <br />and removing ice from the flume. Colowyo staff also indicated that there was no discharge <br />through the flume after the work was completed and that they will continue to monitor the <br />location and report to DRMS if there are any other developments. <br />The photographs will be filed in Laserfiche. <br />
