Mr. Basil Bear assisted in locating mine <br />records. Basil had a confilct for accompanying the inspector in the field, so the inspector conducted the field <br />inspection alone. <br /> <br />The weather was dry and windy. The mine site was very dry. No significantly measuable precipitation has fallen <br />in the valley for an extended period of time. The vegetion on the reclaimed area is very dry and some is already <br />browning up. The upper portions of the reclaimed mine were excessively bug infested with grasshoppers and <br />blister beetles. <br />AVAILABILITY OF RECORDS – Rule 5.02.4(1): <br /> Mine records were verified at the Bowie No. 2 Mine office on the afternoon of 6/12. The onsite <br />inspection was conducted the following day. <br /> <br />All records were in order and available for review. <br /> <br />HYDROLOGIC BALANCE - Rule 4.05 <br />Drainage Control 4.05.1, 4.05.2, 4.05.3; Siltation Structures 4.05.5, 4.05.6; Discharge Structures 4.05.7, 4.05.10; <br />Diversions 4.05.4; Impoundments 4.05.6, 4.05.9; Stream Buffer Zones 4.05.18: <br /> All ponds at the East Mine and ROM have been reclaimed. Bowie Resources use straw mats to stabilize <br />the reclaimed surface until the perennial vegetation becomes established on the reclaimed pond areas. <br /> <br />Reclamation of Pond 1 remains good. Straw mats remain well anchored, although there is a separation between <br />two mats on the west slope. There was no evidence of undercutting of the mat at this time. Perennial vegetation is <br />beginning to emerge through the straw mats along with annual species. Noxious weeds were not noted on the <br />reclaimed pond area. (photo 6) <br /> <br />Reclaimed pond 2 remains in good condition with vegetation emerging through the well anchored straw mats.
