~ ~ (Pa4e 2) <br />MINE ID N OR PROSPECTING ID >« M-87-074 <br />INSPECTION DATE 01/13/00 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS C1LK <br />The following observations were recorded during a routine inspection of this 65.5 acre 112 site. <br />I . Boundary markers were correctly posted as required by the Rules, but no sign was posted at the entrance of the site. This must <br />be remedied within 30 days. (PB1) <br />2. Approximately 25 acres of the site were disturbed, with 12-1 S acres along the south boundary reclaimed, and about 25 acres <br />along the east side undisturbed. <br />3. A.1 equipment on the site is portable, Turd does not need to be included in rcla,Tation costs for demolition. <br />4. The south side of the site slopes to grade, with the north and west sides excavated to 1H:1 V slopes and 20'-25' highwalls along <br />one half of the north side, and 10'-15' highwalls along the west side. According to the Operator, the Bureau of Land <br />Management (BLM), the landowner, wants the western highwalls left in place, out of concern for the stability of the intact <br />down-gradient slope. If these highwalls are to be left in place, a Technical Revision must be submitted, including a map of the <br />areas to be left as highwalls, and a letter from the BLM, confirming their wish that these slopes be left at OH:1 V grades. <br />Otherwise, the site will be bonded for the cost of backfilling the highwalls. <br />5. A topsoil stockpile - 75 paces (110') long, 6'-7' high, and 120 paces wide (180') has been scavenged of the available topsoil. <br />It is clear that the site did not start out with much topsoil to begin with, and a commitment was made to place at least 3" plus <br />"soil amendments, possibly including manure." The bond will be recalculated based upon the necessity for the equivalent of <br />3" of topsoil to cover the site. <br />No other problems noted at this time. The bond will be recalculated within four weeks, based on the current reclamation plan. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME Robert V. Mayne <br />OPERATOR Mayne Block <br />STREET P.O.
