The inspector attempted to access the ditch by foot <br /> however due to snow depths along with rapid snow melt,the area was muddy and difficult to traverse.As noted,the <br /> ditch was observed from above and only Reach 3 could be inspected. This portion of the Final East Pit Ditch was <br /> snow covered but appeared stable and no issues could be observed. <br /> Reach 3 of Final East Pit Ditch. <br /> The Prospect and Streeter Ponds were inspected.These ponds are located along the Highway 13 corridor and receive <br /> surface runoff associated with the East Pit.Both ponds held water and were discharging during the inspection.As <br /> noted in previous inspections,the Prospect Pond was in the process of being cleaned.A portion of sediment has <br /> staged along the inner embankment of the pond for removal however,due to weather conditions,this has been <br /> postponed.The primary spillway associated with the Prospect Pond had debris such as sticks and dead vegetation <br /> frozen along the top of the trash rack.To ensure the spillway is fully functional,the debris will need to be removed <br /> from the top of the trash rack and this has been noted as a maintenance item. The mine representative stated the <br /> debris would be removed from the spillway.Both ponds were stable at the time of the inspection with no major <br /> issues observed. <br />
