Mr. Roberts collected water samples and conducted in -situ <br />measurements of the discharge water. A plastic cup was used to collect the water and pour it into the sample <br />bottles for the lab. The pH was 8.4 and the water was 13 degrees Celsius. The specific conductance was <br />550umhos and the flow was 112 gallons per minute. The primary and emergency spillway was clear and <br />functional. The embankment was vegetated and stable. <br />No Name 44 pond was holding water and discharging. According to Mr. Roberts the decant pipe is leaky and will <br />need to be repaired. Trapper intends to clean several of the No Name ponds this summer and the repairs will <br />likely be conducted at that time. The emergency spillway was clear and functional and the embankment appeared <br />stable. <br />No Name 42 pond has sediment building up next to the decant pipe. This pond will need to be cleaned this <br />summer. The pond was discharging. The emergency spillway was clear and functional and the embankment was <br />stable. <br />West Flume 41 pond was holding water but was not discharging. The embankment was stable and the sediment <br />marker was visible. The primary and emergency spillway was clear and functional. <br />Oak 42 pond was holding water but was not discharging. The embankment was stable and vegetated; however <br />some animal holes were observed on the embankment and should be repaired. The sediment marker was not <br />observed and could not be located. <br />Oak # 1 pond was holding water but was not discharging. The embankment was stable and vegetated. The <br />sediment marker was not observed and could not be located. <br />Grouse 42 pond was dry. The primary and emergency spillway appeared clear and functional. The embankment <br />was stable and vegetated. <br />Sage # 1 and 42 ponds were observed. These ponds were dry and the primary and emergency spillways were clear <br />and functional. The embankments were stable. <br />East Pyeatt 41, 2 and 3 ponds were holding water and discharging. The primary and emergency spillways were <br />clear and functional and the embankments were stable and vegetated. Mr. Roberts collected water samples and <br />conducted in -situ measurements of the discharge water. A plastic cup was used to collect the water and pour it <br />into the sample bottles for the lab. The pH was 7.5 and the water was 12 degrees Celsius. The specific <br />conductance was 3320 umhos and the flow was 13 gallons per minute. <br />Groundwater monitoring well P-31 was observed. Using a 25 foot measuring table, the bottom of the well was <br />measured to be 19 feet and 9 inches from the top of the well casing. The total depth of this well should be 34.9 <br />feet according to Appendix W of Trappers permit. It appears there is a blockage or some problem with this well. <br />Middle Pyeatt 41, 2, and 3 ponds were overall dry except for a small puddle in the 41 pond. These ponds were <br />Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 8 <br />Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 3 <br />Page 3 of 8 <br />
