Site was active at the time of the inspection. <br />Site is in forest service land and according to Mr.Pool, Forest Service <br />inspected the site in June and were satisfied with the mining operation. <br />The site is permitted and bonded for 18 acres to be affected of which six <br />of the acres were pre- law disturbed areas. <br />Mining was continuing cutting the West facing slopes. All the storm water <br />protection structures were in good repair. The area had received measurable <br />rain fall the night before and the perennial stream located at the base of <br />the operation was flowing. Silt fences along the East side of the creek <br />were found to be in good repair. Erosion features noted were normal and to <br />expected especially in an area of the highly weathered Pikes Peak granite <br />slopes. No off site drainage from the operation that was not expected was <br />noted at the time of the inspection. <br />Trucks were being loaded from already stockpiled material at the time of <br />the inspection. <br />The financial warranty was calculated for the 18 acres at$72,184.00, the <br />current affected acres have not changed since the permit was issued in <br />2000.Since it is mountain side removal and cutting slopes it takes a while <br />to move much of material. Site is operated on as need basis. The warranty <br />is more than adequate to cover the cost of reclamation. Diesel fuel stored <br />on site was under a protected area in accordance with spill prevention plan <br />and no problem was noted. <br />Permit sign and boundary markers were properly posted. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: GERGORY LOOP <br />OPERATOR: PK ENERPRISES <br />STREET: P n RC~X 799 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: nIVInF CnRORIa <br />CC: <br />r BL <br />r FS <br />r HW <br />r HMWMD (CH) <br />r <br />r SE <br />r WQCD (CH) <br />r OTHER <br />cc: r CE <br />
