Your mine site was inspected on August 16, 2001 by the DMG. Two problems were noted
during this inspection. One problem involved the southeast corner permit mazker and the other
problem involved the mine ID sign.
The southeast comer of the permit boundary was not adequately delineated and you were
required to place a marker, or monument, at the southeast corner by the October 23, 2001
corrective action due date.
A mine ID sign was not observed at the entrance of the permit area during the August inspection
as required by Rule 3.1.12(1). You were required to install a mine ID sign at the gated entrance
to the permit area by the October 23, 2001 corrective action due date.
The site was re-inspected on November 7, 2001. This inspector found that the southeast corner of
the permit boundary was adequately marked and a mine ID sign had been placed at the entrance
of the permit azea. However, the permittee's name on the sign was incorrect. You were instructed
to correct the sign and notify the DMG that it had been corrected (send a photograph) by
December 19, 2001. To date, the DMG has not received any correspondence, or a photograph,
from you indicating that the corrective action was completed.
You should be aware that if the sign is not corrected, the problem could become a violation.
Please correct the mine ID sign and notify the DMG by letter that it has been corrected by May
1, 2002. Otherwise the site will be re-inspected and, if the sign has not been corrected, a Reason
to Believe letter (that a possible violation exists) will be sent which will require you to appear
before the Mined Land Reclamation Board at their June 26-27, 2002 meeting to explain why the
problem was never resolved.
If you have-any questions, please give me a call at 303-866-4060.
