III. COMMENTS • COMPLIANCE Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. serve any further useful function, and in some locations would likely causesidecutring if there was significant flow in the ditch. These straw bale checks should be removed or at a minimum the bales should be broken up, stakes removed and the loose straw dispersed along the ditch. The following ditch cross section measurements were taken during the inspection to allow for detailed compazison with permit designs, to be undertaken as a part of the mid-term review. Segment designations are in accordance with permit Illustration 6A. RP-SA East Perimeter Ditch Segment 7 is the upper, low gradient segment of the ditch. At a point approximately 120 feet north of the haul road, the ditch was a wide "V", approximately 1' deep by 6' top width. No check dams were specified in the design for Segment 7. The first rock check was encountered approximately 240' north of the haul road, appazently at the upper end of Segment 8. At the first check, d=2', TW=14'. Five additional rock checks were spaced along the segment above the dozer crossing culvert, with between check spacing ranging from 45' to 75'. At the second rock check, d=3', tw=13'. Immediately below the d" rock check, d=18", tw=12'. Just below 18" culvert at Pit to Pit dozer crossing road ,ditch is a broad "V" shape, approximately 3' (d) with 12' (tw). The location of the Pit to Pit dozer crossing road on Illusffa6on 6A sketch does not correspond to that on Map 77A. Map 77A may need to be amended. Distance between first and second rock check dam on this segment is45', subsequent check spacings are 90', 54', and 7S. At the lower rock check on this segment, d=1.5', tw=14'. Al] of the rock checks on RP-SA perimeter ditches aze angular rock of the same type used forriprap. Segment 9. From the lower rock check in previous segment, there is no channel protection for approximately 270', at which point ariprap segment begins. This segment corresponds to the "No protection required" segment of Illus. 6A. Segments 10 and 11. The riprap extends along a steep section of ditch to a point a short distance beyond where the ditch toms sharply to the west. Theriprap section corzesponds to Ditch Segments 10 and 11. Riprap is angular rock, approximate 6" avg. diameter. At the bend of the ditch 1Seg. 11), the channel was trapezoidal, d=2', bw=10', tw=13'. Segment 12. The roughly 400' segment of channel extending to the Pond SA inlet is a grass lined channel with 6 rock checks, with spacing varying between 60' and 40'. Trapezoidal channel with d=2', bw=9', two {S' 1tP-SA West Perimeter Ditch At the upper end of the west perimeter ditch, there are severalriprapped ditch sections, sepazated by non-riprap sections with rock checks of varied spacing (roughly corzesponding to Ditch Segments I through 3). Near the upper end of Segment 1, at the base of a shortriprap segment, ditch appeared to be less than 12" deep in one location, and build up is warranted. One nonaiprap section near the upper end of the ditch extended for approximately 200 feet with no rock checks. Along the second riprap section, ditch was trapezoidal, with d=3', bw=10', tw=18'. Below the second riprap section is a segment of trapezoidal ditch with rock checks averaging 45' spacing (Segment 4?). At a typical location between rock checks, d=2',bw=5', and tw=12'. At a representative rock check location, d=approximately 14". Below the lowerriprap segment, ditch was "V" shaped, with d=] 8" and tw=7'; spacing between rock checks approximately 45' (Segment 4 or 5).
