Photo 4. Destroyed concrete V drop structure in East Pit drainage with gully formation and 4064 yd' <br />lost. <br />PW, <br />Photo 5. A different view showing the Monarch Fan Road , the large East Pit gully, and the East Pit <br />drainage gully with the destroyed concrete V drop structures. <br />An inspection of the Magpie Creek and the Magpie Diversion drainages shows no deposition of the <br />massive amount of eroded sediment within the GEC permit area. There are sediment deposits visible on <br />the adjacent property. However, those deposits are not large enough to account for more than a small <br />portion of 24,000 yd3. Therefore, the lost sediment has continued farther on downstream. <br />The gullies exhibit no signs of stability. Erosion and down cutting continue. The gully on the east side <br />of County Road 92 specifically is getting deeper and wider. The undercut fence that now has dangling <br />fence posts is a graphic reminder of the widening and erosion process. <br />
