November 11, 2015 C-1981-014/Southfield Mine RDZ <br />TOPSOIL — Rule 4.06 <br />Removal 4.06.2; Substitute Materials 4.06.4(4); Storage and Protection 4.06.3; Redistribution 4.06.4: <br />Topsoil depths were checked at several locations (and listed in chronological order in the following table), and all <br />of them are in compliance. Unless otherwise noted, holes to check these depths were dug during the inspection. <br />When the EFCI holes were checked, DRMS staff removed the loose dirt from the EFCI holes. <br />Area <br />Location/Description <br />Topsoil <br />Depth (in) <br />Facilities/portal <br />Near the southeast corner of the truck tunnel <br />7 <br />Facilities/portal <br />Near the northeast corner of the area <br />5-6 <br />Facilities/portal <br />Near the Magpie Creek Diversion, south of the <br />truck tunnel <br />6 <br />Facilities/portal <br />Three holes near the south end of the area <br />6-7 <br />Loadout, east <br />Reclaimed Pond Ll <br />7 <br />Loadout, east <br />Just west of the reclaimed Pond Ll area <br />6 <br />Loadout, east <br />EFCI's LOE1, LOE 2, and LOE3 <br />6 (all three) <br />Loadout, west <br />Reclaimed Pond L2 area <br />6 <br />Loadout, west <br />EFCI's LOW2 <br />8 <br />Pond 3 <br />West side <br />6 <br />RDA <br />EFCI's RDA3 <br />> 10 <br />RDA <br />EFCI's RDA2 and RDA1 <br />12-13 <br />Two topsoil stockpiles were observed: the one near the gravel parking lot in the facilities area and the one at the <br />northwest corner of the RDA. The vegetation was good on both, with two exceptions: a patch of Russian thistle <br />covers a large part of the stockpile at the facilities area and topsoil has been removed from the stockpile near the <br />RDA. No erosion was seen, and signs were in place. Where the material has been removed at the RDA, erosion <br />BMPs have been added. These piles warrant further discussion between EFCI and DRMS: a revision may be <br />needed to keep them as permanent features. <br />ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS/COMPLIANCE <br />No enforcement actions were initiated as a result of this inspection, nor are any pending. <br />Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 4 <br />Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 1 <br />Page 8 of 36 <br />
