MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: nn-ieRn_933 <br />INSPECTION DATE: -G/~ns INSPECTOR S INITIALS: KAP <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This inspection was performed as part of the four-year monitoring program conducted by the Division of <br />Minerals and Geology. Present at the inspection were Kate Pickford, DMG, and Mathew Valdez, <br />Costilla County. Weather at the time of the inspection was clear, calm, and approximately 80 degrees. <br />2. An appropriate sign is posted at the mine entrance and fence lines mark the boundaries. The site is <br />adequately graded for final reclamation. Vegetation at the site, however, is not adequate for release. <br />Although the site has been seeded, perennial vegetative cover ranges from 0% to 30%. Adjacent, <br />undisturbed areas contain approximately 70% to 80% vegetative cover consisting primarily of perennial <br />grasses. <br />3. A road is present on the site, which is still being used to access and adjacent property. The reclamation <br />plan for the site does not indicate that the road will remain after final reclamation. In order for the road <br />to be reclaimed, the area would have to be seeded and use of the road discontinued so that <br />vegetative cover could be come established. If the operator desires to keep the road at the site <br />following reclamation, the operator may submit a technical revision to the Division indicating that the <br />road will remain. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: Mathew Valdez <br />OPERATOR: Costilla County <br />STREET: P n Rc~x 130 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: Snn I ui~ CCU R1 159 <br />Cc: ^ CE <br />^ BL <br />^ FS <br />^ HW <br />^ HMWMD (CH) <br />^ SE <br />^ WOCD (CH) <br />X Other: Harry Posey, DMG <br />
