PERMIT #: M- 1975 -009 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: PSH <br />INSPECTION DATE: January 30, 2014 <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />The Doughty's Pit was inspected by Peter Hays with the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety as part of <br />the Division's monitoring inspection program. The site was previously inspected by the Division on July 22, <br />2010. Mr. Thomas Murray with Lakewood Brick and Tile Company and Mr. Steve O'Brian with Environment, <br />Inc. were present during the inspection. <br />The site is permitted for 5.0 acres. The 2013 annual report submitted by the Operator indicated 3.10 acres of <br />disturbance and 2.0 acres of reclamation at the site. Mining is planned to continue to the south and east of <br />the current pit floor. The site was inactive during the inspection; however material was mined and removed <br />from stockpiles during the 2013 mining season. <br />The entrance sign and boundary markers were observed during the inspection as required by Rule 3.1.12. <br />New posts for the permit area were installed in June 2012 according to the 2013 annual report. The Division <br />holds a financial warranty in the amount of $8,385.00, which appears adequate to reclaim the site based on <br />this inspection. <br />The Division approved a technical revision to modify the permit boundary on November 26, 2010 by releasing <br />the two northern inactive portions and consolidating the 5.0 acre permit area around the active southern pit. <br />No runoff problems were observed during this inspection, however the site was partially snow covered. The <br />site was impacted by the recent flooding event in the region. The stockpiled material was moved to the <br />northeast, partially burying a loader parked in the stockpile /loading area of the site. <br />No problems were cited during the inspection. Photographs taken during the inspection are attached below. <br />Inspection Contact Address <br />Mr. Thomas Murray <br />Lakewood Brick & Tile Company <br />1325 Jay St <br />Lakewood, CO 80214 <br />Cc: Tom Kaldenbach, DRMS <br />Steve O'Brian, Environment, Inc. <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />
