The mine has gone through a Phase II Bond Release and is in year nine of its <br />liability. The weather was cool and partly cloudy and the ground was dry. <br />Availability of Records: All of the necessary records were available at the Garfield <br />County Courthouse in Glenwood Springs. See the records checklist at the end of <br />this inspection for more details. <br />Signs and Markers: The permit area markers were in place. The mine ID sign was up <br />at the main gate and was in good condition. <br />Roads: The mine access road was stable and in good condition at the time of the <br />inspection. No erosional problems were noted on the road. <br />Hydrologic Balance: -The riprap ditches from the mine site to the canyon bottom <br />were stable and in good condition. There were no signs of problems wit any of the <br />ditches. <br />-The area of the reclaimed pond appeared stable and well vegetated. <br />Miscellaneous: The landowner drilled a small well inside the gate early in the fall (as <br />he wants to build a house on the property). The well is not related to any mining <br />activity and the landowner drilled the well without first contacting the Operator. The <br />Operator was contacted by the Division and informed that any additional activity <br />on the site would need to be approved via the Minor or Technical Revision process. <br />
