The <br /> inspection was conducted by Clayton Wein of the Division. The Fruits No. 1 and 2 mine is a <br /> revoked site. No company representative attended the inspection. The weather was cloudy with <br /> a temperature of 75 degrees F. The ground conditions were dry. <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;Effluent Limits 4.05.2; Ground Water Monitoring 4.05.13; Surface Water Monitoring 4.05.13; <br /> Drainage —Acid and Toxic Materials 4.05.8;Impoundments 4.05.6,4.05.9; Stream Buffer Zones 4.05.18: <br /> The mine's sediment pond is located at the southern portion of the permit boundary. The pond was dry <br /> during the inspection(Photo 1). The embankments were stable with vegetative cover. There were no indications <br /> of erosional features. The riprap lining the pond's outlet was stable and in good condition. The riprap channel <br /> extending from the top of the reclaimed portals bench to the start of the channel into the sediment pond was stable <br /> (Photo 2). The channel is on a steep slope and the riprap armors the channel and prevents erosion. The channel <br /> was dry during the inspection. <br /> RECLAMATION SUCCESS -Rule 4.15,Rule 3: <br /> The reclaimed haul road was stable with vegetative cover(Photo3). The rills on the reclamation have <br /> been identified and documented in previous Division inspection reports. The rills were observed to be in the same <br /> condition as previous inspections. The rills have reached a stable state and do not appear to be affecting the <br /> reclamation's stability. The slope of the reclaimed portal bench was observed to be stable. This slope faces to the <br /> south and therefore has minimal vegetative cover. There were no erosional features observed. The reclaimed <br /> portals bench was stable with vegetative cover. There were no new erosional features identified. The gully on the <br /> bench has been documented in previous Division inspection reports. The gully appeared to be the same size as in <br /> previous inspections. The gully seems to be stable and does not affect the reclamation's stability. <br /> Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 0 <br /> Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 4 <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br />
