<br />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 inspection <br />and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a partial inspection of the Coal Ridge Mine conducted by Harry Ranney of DMG. No <br />company representative was present during the inspection. The Coal Ridge Mine is in reclamation <br />only status. Weather conditions on site were clear and warm. <br />Roads The road leading into the Coal Ridge Mine was in good condition with only minor erosion <br />evident. <br />Hydrologic Balance The sediment pond had approximately 18-24 inches of water in each cell but <br />no recent discharge was noted. Only minor erosion was noted on site which is due to the relatively <br />good stand of vegetation. <br />Reclamation Success As noted above, the vegetation is doing quite well but their are patches of <br />weeds that sould be sprayed before infestation becomes a problem. These weeds include field bind <br />weed, hounds lounge, and some annual thistles. No recent signs of cattle grazing was noted. <br />
