The inspection was conducted and the report prepared by me, Robin Reilley of the <br />DRMS. Miranda Kawcak and Jennifer Johnson, Williams Fork representatives were present <br />throughout the inspection. Skies had high clouds with temperatures around 68 degrees <br />Fahrenheit. Demolition of the site continues with disposal of the materials progressing in a <br />timely fashion. Main haul roads appeared in good repair, no hydrologic or air quality issues <br />were detected. <br /> <br />UPCOMING PERMITTING ACTIONS: <br />o Phase I, II and III bond release of Utah Track and the Williams Fork strip pit <br />o Technical Revision of the Reclamation Plan <br /> <br />MAINTENANCE ITEMS: Stream Buffer Zone Rule 4.05.18 and 4.02 <br />1. Please place markers at more frequent intervals and further south along stream to <br />delineate the stream buffer zone. Have these additional markers in place by the time of <br />the July inspection. <br />2. Rebar pile that previously was quite near stream buffer zone had been completely moved <br />away. <br /> <br />INSPECTION: <br /> <br />GENERAL MINE PLAN COMPLIANCE: <br />Reclamation is underway as permitted, with many of the facilities already demolished. Most <br />ponds will be reclaimed, as over the course of the year they do not retain water. With the <br />exception of a vehicle storage building, facilities will be demolished and hauled away. ColoWyo <br />wishes to maintain access to the site to maintain their railroad spur that runs through the site. <br /> <br />SIGNS AND MARKERS Rule 4.02 <br />o Topsoil stockpiles were noted. Some, but not all were clearly marked with identifying signs. <br />o Stream buffer zones were noted. It appears additional signage is needed to clearly delineate <br />the buffer zone for all contractors operating on site. <br />
