The erosion appears to <br />have been caused by run-off from the roads above and down to the pond. Pursuant to <br />Rule 4.05.5(1)(c), the Operator shall repair the erosion and stabilize the west bank of <br />Pond 008. The Operator stated that they will likely install additional rock berms along the <br />western-most road to help prevent run-off from running down the slopes and into the <br />pond. The Operator also stated that they plan to remove the sediment (deposited as a <br />result of the bank erosion) along the west bank of Pond 08. <br />• The primary and emergency spillways appeared clear and functional. <br />• The flume held water at the time of the inspection but was not discharging.
