(Page 2) MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-1983-037 INSPECTION DATE 11/09/04 INSPECTOR'S INITIALS ESC This was an inspection of the Wyman Pit conducted by Erica Crosby of the Division of Minerals and Geology. Lou Wyman was present during the inspection. A 110 permit was issued on May 31, 1983 for an affected area of 9 acres. The postmining land use is rangeland. The site is located adjacent to and north of an access road for oil drilling sites on a westerly facing hillside approximately 300 feet east of County Road 67. Amine identification sign was posted at the entrance to the site. Permit boundary markers could not be located. Rule 3.1.12(2) requires boundary markers to be posted on site to delineate the permit boundary area. The operator will need to post the markers and submit photographs to demonstrate compliance on or before May 1, 2005. See page 3 for further information. The pit area and associated stockpiles is approximately 3 acres in size. Mining began in the southeast portion of the site and is proceeding in a northeasterly direction. The pit has a highwall approximately 15 feet high. A large topsoil pile was located behind the highwall. The topsoil will need to be moved before the pit can move any further to the northeast. Some topsoil has been placed and spread south of the access road. It appears that this material is used to level some of the adjacent land owned by the operator. The operator should be reminded that all stockpiles, including topsoil, must be located inside the permit boundary area. Routt County crushed and screened 5,000 tons of material in July of 2004. The crushed gravel is used by Routt County for use on roads. Material is stockpiled inside the pit and will be used throughout the year. 2 & 8 Contact Address NAME Mr. Louis Wyman ~ CE ~ BL ~ FS ~ HW ~ HMWMD (CH) ~ SE ~ WQCD (CH) OPERATOR STREET P.O.
