PERMIT #: M -1987 -186 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: ECS <br />INSPECTION DATE: February 5, 2014 <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This was a routine monitoring inspection conducted at the Peters #2 Pit by Eric Scott of DRMS. Although the <br />inspection was unscheduled, it was considered practical to conduct at this time due to the remote location of <br />the site, and the proximity of the DRMS inspector who was conducting inspections at other nearby locations. <br />The site identification sign was noted at the access point to the site area, and several of the boundary markers <br />were observed. It was noted that no activity appears to have taken place recently at this site, and the most <br />recent annual report indicates that no mining has taken place since August 2012, although there is a stockpile <br />of material remaining that is available for use as needed by the county. Reclamation is also underway on the <br />south part of the site at this time. DRMS will take this opportunity to remind Weld County that according to <br />the Mined Land Reclamation Act, reclamation is required to be complete within 5 years of the end of mining <br />activity. <br />Although it was difficult to ascertain the condition of the vegetation on the site and the reclaimed areas due to <br />conditions during this inspection, it appeared that the site was in compliance at the time of the inspection <br />with no outstanding issues observed. <br />Inspection Contact Address <br />Clay Kimmi <br />Weld County <br />P.O.
