Collection and diversion culverts and ditches all were <br />functional. The sediment pond was dry and the gated primary was closed. There were no signs of fuel <br />leaks at the fue] facility. The containment berm was functional. The straw bales at the top of the road <br />leading to the lower orchard need to be positioned better.

There were some rills, no more than 3 inches <br />deep, at the site, mostly in the central part of the reclaimed site. A small gully was starting to form on <br />the road leading from the water tank area down to the reclaimed portal bench site. The silt fence <br />around the reclaimed site was functional, although some maintenance and repairs will be needed soon. <br />The upper sediment pond was wet but had no standing water. The lower pond had standing water to <br />within 8 inches of the primary. The lower pond gated valve was closed while the gated valve on the <br />upper pond was open, as designed. Both pond embankments had very little vegetative cover. There <br />was some brush debris at the inlet to the East Roatcap Creek culvert that probably should be removed. <br />Surface disturbance markers were up as was the mine ID sign. <br />Well Field <br />No problems were observed at the well field, except the topsoil stockpile sign needs to be put back up <br />on its post.
