April 29, 2015 C- 1982 - 057 /Seneca II -W Mine JHB <br />PM -5A and PM 5 -13 appeared to be holding up well with no gullys forming in this drainage. <br />005 -Gulch was free of snow and holding up well. No damage was noted from the eastern extent of 005 -Gulch to <br />Stock Tank T -18. <br />Drainage 005 -E I was flowing, but rip -rap was holding up well. <br />Rip rapped collection ditch draining to culvert PM -15 had held up well during the winter months and runoff <br />season. <br />Stock tank T -20 was holding a shallow pool of water. <br />Pond 005 was discharging. The flume showed a trickle and was immeasurable due to unlevel status. Katryna <br />indicated that this flume will be replaced. SCC is working on bidding out the flume replacement work. <br />Pond 015 was inaccessible due to rock fall on the access road. SCC has been able to access pond 15 via an ATV. <br />ROADS — Rule 4.03 <br />Drainage 4.03.1(4)/4.03.2(4) <br />Surfacing and Maintenance4.03.1(5) and (6)/4.03.2(5) and (6) <br />Reclamation 4.03.1(7)/4.03.2(7): <br />Access road J was soft but holding up well. Previous gravel placement on road J is well placed and <br />keeping road traversable. Culverts under Road J were clear and functioning as intended. Sediment traps were <br />functioning well, with no maintenance needed on the sediment traps. <br />Access road A was in good condition with no concerns noted along this road. <br />Ridgeline access road was in good condition. Runoff was draining appropriately off Ridgeline road, and all <br />culverts were clear. <br />Access road G was in good condition. Areas graveled in 2014 are doing well. <br />RECLAMATION SUCCESS - Rule 4.15, Rule 3: <br />The snow fence erected on the ridge west of drainage PM -4C held up very well. There was no evidence of <br />gully formation at the fence, the fence showed no signs of being knocked over from large snow drifts. Living <br />snow fence tree seedlings were surviving well. Some mortality was evident but the majority f the seedlings <br />appeared to be thriving. Some of the weed barrier fabric at the living snow fence had pulled up and was blowing <br />around. Re- staking or removal of this loose fabric is advised to reduce the potential for the fabric to uproot the <br />surviving seedlings. <br />REVEGETATION — Rule 4.15 <br />Vegetative Cover; Timing: <br />Vegetation throughout the mine site is greening up and beginning active growth.
