<br />III. Comments - Compliance <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of <br />observations made during the inspection. Comments also describe any <br />enforcement actions taken during the inspection and the facts or evidence <br />supporting the enforcement action. <br />On tiay 23, 1991 a partial inspection was conducted at the <br />Deserado Mine. Present at the inspection was Tim Chervick of <br />Western Fuels and Randy Price of MLRD. At the time of the <br />inspection the weather was clear, however the ground was wet from <br />an intense thunderstorm that had passed earlier. <br />Observations: <br />The Sediment pond PP-1 was discharging. The effluent looked <br />clear. Tamarisk around the pond had been sprayed with a <br />herbicide. This herbicide contained a marking dye. <br />Additional work has been conducted on the sediment control system <br />at the explosive storage area. A berm along the edge of the pad <br />had been reformed. The outslopes off the pad were well vegetated. <br />Also the sediment control system under the conveyor just north of <br />the office as been improved. <br />This mine is continuing to work on locating the cause of the high <br />Ceridaohnia mortality in the mine discharge. It seems that the <br />high chloride may be the problem and the mine has been looking <br />for ways to try to lower the concentration. <br />.. .._ . ~ _ i .. _ ...~-- <br />
