III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE
Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made
during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the
inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action.
On February 19, 1997, William J. Carter from the Division of Minerals and Geology performed a
partial inspection of the Terror Creek Company Coal Load Out facility. At the time of the
inspection the weather was partly cloudy, and had warmed enough to cause a considerable
amount of melting of the existing snow.
Roads:
The roads in and out of the facility were in good, and stable condition.
Hydrologic Balance:
• Although the yard has been obviously graded, it contained standing water due to the snow
melt. This did not appear to be excessive considering the weather conditions at the time of
the observation.
The sedimentation pond contained water about two feet below the primary spillway, and
was not discharging at this time.
The culvert under the entrance road is fully functional, but should be watched to prevent
siltation on the upper end.
The ditch down gradient from the above-mentioned culvert is well below the culvert
outlet.
