February 17, 2015 C- 1996 - 083 /13owie No. 2 Mine JDM <br />Gob Pile 91 was idle during the inspection. The Division is currently reviewing TR -97 proposing a demonstration <br />that the refuse pile is stable as constructed, with a 1.5:1 slope on 0.1 acres of the pile face. The operator will wait <br />to finish reclamation (revegetation) of Gob Pile 91 until the Division determines whether additional grading will <br />be required. <br />Cover material excavated from the Gob Pile 93 east area had been placed on the upper portion of the west end of <br />Gob Pile 92. The cover material will be spread to the required 3.5' depth after the operator has hauled all of the <br />material required to cover the west side of the second bench. Stockpiling of cover material on the second bench is <br />consistent with the approved permit application package, as revised under TR -94. <br />Refuse material was being placed and compacted on Gob Pile #3 at the time of the inspection. <br />Refuse material placed in windrows on the southeast area of Gob Pile #3. Water was draining between the <br />windrows to Ditch J3 and Pond J. <br />Cover material was being salvaged on the east side of Gob Pile #3, in the footprint of the former west coverfill <br />Stockpile, although salvage equipment was idle at the time of the inspection. <br />Gob Pile #4 was inactive at the time of the inspection. <br />Cover material hauling at Gob Pile #2 <br />Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 10 <br />Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 2 <br />Page 4 of 5 <br />
