III. COMMENTS - COMPLIANCf~~ <br />~` I ~b Mo- o ~ ~d> <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations <br />made during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during <br />the inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a partial inspection of the Hayden Gulch Mine conducted by Jim Stark of <br />CDMG. The mine has gone through a Phase I and Phase II Bond Release on all but <br />approximately nine acres. The weather was cool and overcast and there was snow <br />on the ground on the north-facing slopes. <br />The access road to shrub parcels HG-OS and E and the 1997 slump area was <br />inaccessible at the time of the inspection due to the large amount of snow still piled <br />up at the entrance from the winter's plowing operations. Parcel HG-08 was, <br />however, visible from the road. The parcel was covered with snow but appeared to <br />be stable. There was water in the pond but it was not discharging (and it is no longer <br />a part of the permit area). <br />Shrub parcel 003 was partly covered (about'/< of the area) with snow at the time of <br />the inspection. The areas that were visible appeared to be well vegetated and <br />stable. There did not appear to be any erosional problems at the parcel from runoff <br />from the melting snow. Pond 003 contained water but it was not discharging (and it <br />is no longer a part of the permit area). <br />Only the lower portion (bottom 100 feet) of the light use road at parcel 003 to the two <br />exploration holes was visible at the time of the inspection. It appeared to be stable <br />and in good condition. The rest of the road and the two drill pad sites were not <br />accessible due to the mud. <br />
