~~ • (Page 2) • <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-77-193 <br />INSPECTION DATE December 27, 1996 ZNSPECTOF'S INITIALS TAS <br />1. A site monitoring inspection was made to evaluate the volume of non-roadaY~le miscellaneous <br />mine equipment that will removed during final reclamation and the progress of the stormwater <br />drainage controls. <br />2. This inspector estimated a volume of 25 flat bed trailer loads of miscellaneous, non- <br />roadable mine equipment on site that will be removed during final reclamation to achieve a <br />post-mining land use of rangeland. Removal of this equipment will be includa~d in the current <br />amendment application reclamation cost. Mr. Klco is welcome to provide supF~orting data such <br />as the salvage value of the equipment which can be used to offset the reclamation cost. <br />3. The cost to remove the trailer and scale was not estimated. <br />4. Pond 1 has been partially constructed at the west end of the processing yard. There was <br />no definitive inlet or outlet spillway constructed and there was no inlet ditch. The <br />diversion ditch which runs the periphery of the processing area, to the north, and then down <br />a steep decline to the east was not yet constructed, nor were the 3 large containment ponds <br />numbered 5. 6. and 7. <br />4. Pond 2 has been constructed with a temporary spillway composed of large boulders, but does <br />not contain a properly constructed spillway as shown on the proposed desig.zs. <br />5. Pond 3 has been constructed with an adequate spillway. The sizing on Pond 3 was not <br />verified; however, it appeared that pond 3 could be considerably larger. <br />6. Pond 4 has not been constructed. <br />This inspector measured approximately 2450 linear feet of diversion ditch to be constructed <br />between pond 1 and pond 5, approximatley 4560 linear feet of collection ditcY~ to be installed <br />along the current haul road and various side entries in order to collect and control the <br />velocity of runoff waters, and approximately 450 linear feet of either culverts, cross <br />drains, water bars, or other structures installed to route flows into and out of the <br />collection ponds. <br />7. This inspector also noticed the south outslope of the mine bench/processing area was long <br />and oversteepened. Althouth this bench will eventually be reduced in height by approximately <br />75 feet during the next phase of mining, the Division will evaluate the outslope on future <br />inspections for signs of rilling or gullying which indicate instability. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME Edward J.
