At the time of reinspection by the Division this <br />was not a concern. A11 mine I.D. signs represented the correct permit <br />number. No enforcement action was taken, <br />The second citation was for "failure to maintain the sediment pond to prevent <br />short-circuiting" and "failure to protect the side slopes of the sediment pond <br />against erosion." An investigation of the sediment pond and diversion ditches <br />during the follow-up inspection led the Division inspectors to the conclusion <br />that no short-circuiting was occurring, nor was erosion occurring at any point <br />which would cause the sediment pond to be in non-compliance. No enforcement <br />action was taken. <br />If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />rn <br />Michael S.
