• Well permits(current) <br />• Applicant Violator System ownership and control info was verified <br />Roads (Rule 4.03): <br />All roads traveled were generally in good repair at the time of inspection. <br />Topsoil (Rule 4.06): <br />Many topsoil stockpile areas and several newly redistributed topsoiled areas throughout the mine <br />are lacking in vegetative cover. OSMRE notes some stockpiles observed were either currently <br />being seeded or have just been seeded. Nevertheless, it is apparent that due to the overall lack of <br />successful vegetation establishment, the current seeding practice is not effective. As part of the <br />closeout meeting, the operator ensured that they will be working with DRMS to explore any <br />potential alternative methods. See Figure 1 below. <br />Hydrology (Rule 4.05): <br />C-18 Ditch- Inspected the ditch for stability and functionality. It is evident that recent <br />maintenance has been performed to remove excessive vegetation. The ditch had positive flow at <br />the time of inspection. Functioning as designed. <br />C-4 Ditch- Inspected the ditch for stability and functionality. Excessive vegetation has been <br />established due to lack of maintenance. DRMS provided that a revision is in the works to allow <br />for this ditch to remain as is and construct an additional drainage adjacent to it, rather than re - <br />disturb the area. No other areas of concern were identified at the time of inspection. <br />Pond 7- Inspected the pond for overall stability and functionality. This included the inlet <br />structure, principle spillway, emergency spillway. No areas of concern were identified at the <br />time of inspection. <br />Pond 8- Inspected the pond for overall stability and functionality. This included the inlet <br />structure, principle spillway, emergency spillway. No areas of concern were identified at the <br />time of inspection. <br />Pond 11- Inspected the pond for overall stability and functionality. This included the inlet <br />structure, principle spillway, emergency spillway. <br />Pond 9- Inspected the pond for overall stability and functionality. This included the inlet <br />structure, principle spillway, emergency spillway. No areas of concern were identified at the <br />time of inspection. <br />Pond 13- Inspected the pond for overall stability and functionality. This included the inlet <br />structure, principle spillway, emergency spillway. The inlet at Pond 13 is overgrown with <br />cattails. As a result of the dense vegetation establishment and location, any sediment that enters <br />Pond 13 deposits the sediment load at this location. Therefore, increased maintenance will be <br />necessary to ensure pond functionality. No other areas of concern were identified at the time of <br />inspection. The pond was not discharging at the time of inspection. No areas of concern were <br />identified at the time of inspection. See Figures 2 and 3 below. <br />
