Ground conditions on this <br />day were dry and the weather was warm. <br />Roads <br />The steep section of the road leading south into Section 22 was <br />found in good condition with no evidence of rutting or damage. <br />Hydrologic 9alance <br />The inspection concentrated on the western portion of the reclaimed <br />area north of the county toad. Two ponds, 15-P20 and 15-P8, are <br />located in this portion of reclamation. Both ponds inspected were <br />holding significant volumes of water. Evidence suggested a rainfall <br />event within the recent past. <br />The repaired portion of the ditch north and east of reclaimed pond <br />i5-P1 was inspected along the lower riprap section. Some movement <br />of riprap in the lowest check dam has occurred from storm runoff. <br />Howeve:•, in general, the ditch seems to be functioning as designed. <br />
