III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made <br />during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the <br />inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a complete inspection, conducted by Joe Dudash of the <br />Colorado Division of Minerals and Geology. The operator was <br />represented, at various times, by Forrest Luke, Billy Nicholson, <br />and Larry Henderson. In addition to the inspection, Trapper <br />sponsored a mine tour for five high school students, as part of the <br />State of Colorado's Youth in Natural Resources program. <br />Coordination of the tour was through the Division of Minerals and <br />Geology. <br />ROADS <br />All of the roads at the mine site were in good shape and all were <br />passable. The operator had recently applied magnesium chloride to <br />the haul roads. <br />FACILITIES <br />There were no problems noted at the office area, the industrial <br />storage area, the waste oil site, the two anfo sites and the <br />explosives storage site. <br />8IGN8 AND MARRERB <br />Mine ID signs were up at the proper locations and contained the <br />correct information. Blasting notice signs were also up at these <br />locations. The permit boundary markers had been recently painted, <br />and were up around the mine site perimeter. Topsoil stockpile <br />markers were also present. <br />TOPSOIL <br />All of the topsoil piles were properly marked and protected from <br />erosion. The one topsoil pile just to the east of the Deer pond <br />needs to have some maintenance work done on the containment ditch <br />along the pile's southern end. Field Minor Revision No. 148 was <br />issued so that the operator could move topsoil stockpile A 93-6 to <br />a new location approximately 3000 feet to the north. The former <br />location was in the way of road building work. <br />DITCREB AND CIILVERTB <br />There was some brush that should be removed in the West Buzzard <br />
