October 9, 2019 C-1981-008/New Horizon Mine JHB <br /> solely a result of spoil water. <br /> Pond 16 was dry, vegetation is becoming established on the inslopes. <br /> Pond 15 was dry. The ditch to Pond 15 was in good condition. <br /> The NW corner of the SAE from the Morgan property was dry a with no gully formation in this location. No <br /> evidence of offsite sediment was noted from this area. <br /> Pond 18 was dry. Although ERMR staff had recently conducted an extensive noxious weed control effort for <br /> Tamarisk and Russian olive,we located number of young tamarisk and Russian olive sprouts around the Pond 18 <br /> area. ERMR immediately dug these plants out, and will continue to monitor the area as part of their weed <br /> management plan. <br /> A new bond release application has been submitted to the Division for success on the reclaimed ditch 18 area. <br /> This former sedimentation structure has been reclaimed to irrigated pasture. The water was off,but the vegetation <br /> in the irrigated swath appears well established. This swath of grass has not been cut since the water was shut off. <br /> Ditches and ponds throughout the site appear to be functioning well, and in good condition moving towards winter <br /> months. <br /> REVEGETATION—Rule 4.15 <br /> Vegetative Cover; Timing: <br /> ERMR continues to be diligent on weed control. They have been putting in a concerted effort to eliminate <br /> tamarisk and Russian olive when to find it. They have cut down large olive trees and dig up smaller olives and <br /> tamarisk when they are encountered. When we encountered tamarisk along the bottom of Pond 18, Frank and <br /> Cliff Chiles dug them up immediately. <br /> Many of the fields have been cut in the area. The irrigation water has been shut off, so farmers are in the process <br /> of getting the last crops in. <br /> DOCUMENTS RECEIVED NA <br /> OTHER(SPECIFY) NA <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: 2 <br /> Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 2 <br /> Page 3 of 6 <br />
