(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: Mn Q77-i R7 <br />INSPECTION DATE: Aiiguct t, ~nro INSPECTORS INITIALS: GRS <br />This was apre-operational inspection done in response to an Amendment application to add 48.46 acres to the <br />current42.75 acre permit area. There is a Permit ID sign posted at the entrance to the mine, and the current permit <br />boundaries are well marked with posts and signs. The amendment application area has not been physically marked, but <br />is easily identified by existing fences, roads and other landmarks. At the time of this inspection stockpiled material on the <br />pit floor was being loaded and removed from the site. <br />The first part of the inspection consisted of a general tour of the existing permitted site. It was noted that the large berm <br />of overburden material was still present along the north side of the pit area. This is not a problem, but will require a large <br />part of the current bond amount to move and regrade this material. It was also noted that a Permit ID sign had been <br />posted and Permit Boundary Markers were in place. This resolves the problems noted in the Division's September 11, <br />1996 and September 19, 2000 inspection reports. After inspecting the current permit area, the proposed amendment <br />area was visited. The proposed boundaries were identified and the proposed mining and reclamation plans were <br />reviewed on-site. <br />The inspector did not identify any on-site problems which would preclude the approval of the permit amendment <br />application.. <br />Cc: Carl Mount - DMG, Via electronic transmission <br />Greg Lewiki -Greg Lewicki and Associates <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: <br />OPERATOR: United Companies of Mesa Countv <br />STREET: 27346 Highway 6 & 24 <br />CIiY/STATE/ZIP: Rifle CO 8]650 <br />cc ^ CE <br />^ BL <br />^ FS <br />^ HW <br />^ HMWMD (CH) <br />^ SE <br />^ WQCD (CH) <br />^ OTHER <br />
