The erosion BMPs were working very well. <br /> The reclaimed Run of Mine (ROM)pond is generally in good shape,but some repair of BMPs is still needed, as <br /> noted in past reports. <br /> The ponds at the West Mine were dry; no problems were seen with the embankments. <br /> The ponds at the loadout and the Coal Storage Area(next to loadout)were dry, and no problems were identified <br /> with these ponds. The irrigation canal(Farmers Ditch)that flows in a culvert under the loadout was dry. <br /> Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 4 <br /> Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 2 <br /> Page 2 of 7 <br />
