Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during <br />the inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a partial inspection of the Marr Mine conducted by Jim Stark of CDMG. The <br />mine has been reclaimed. The weather was cold and sunny and there was about six <br />inches of snow on the ground, The area of the mine south of the facilities area was <br />inaccessible at the time of the inspection due to large snowdrifts. <br />Sians and Markers: All of the necessary signs were posted at the mine site and <br />loadout (Mine ID signs, topsoil stockpile signs, permit boundary signs, etc.). <br />Roads: -The access road to the mine site was covered with snow and drifts in many <br />places. Other parts of the road were free of snow due to the wind. The road <br />appeared to be well maintained and in good condition. <br />-The permanent light use road (former haul road) that remains on the site was also <br />covered with snow and drifts in spots but also appeared to be well maintained and <br />in good condition as well. <br />- The road to the loadout was covered with snow but appeared to be stable and in <br />good condition. <br />Hvdroloaic Balance: -Ponds A, B and C were not inspected at this time due to snow <br />cover. <br />- Pond D appeared to contain a very small amount of water at the bottom <br />(although there was some snow cover so it is possible that the pond was dry) and <br />was not discharging. The pond appeared to be stable. <br />- Pond E appeared to contain a small amount of water at the bottom as well but <br />was not discharging. The pond appeared to be stable at the time of the <br />inspection. <br />- Pond F appeared to be dry, <br />- Pond G appeared to be dry. <br />- All of the roadside ditches were filled with snow. <br />- The pond at the loadout contained water several feet below the discharge pipe. <br />This pond also appeared to be stable. <br />Fish and Wildlife: Although no wildlife was seen at the site at the time of the <br />inspection, there were signs that deer and antelope had been on the site recently. <br />Reveaetation/Reclamation Success: For the most part, the ground was covered with <br />several inches of snow and large drifts so it was not possible to ascertain the <br />condition of the vegetation at the time of the inspection. <br />
