(Page 2) MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # : ~~-~ ooo-nn~ INSPECTION DATE: ~-2cL-n.~ INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: ~_ OBSERVATIONS The Division conducted pre-operational inspection of the site on 1-24-03. The site is a 112 sand and gravel operation. The operator submitted an amendment to expand the affected acreage by 35 acres. The 35 acres were included in the permit area when the permit was approved in 1999. Operator felt the need to not affect it until the wetlands issue was resolved. Due to the flooding that took place in the area, in 1998, the parcel was covered with water, and the operator felt it was a good idea to not mine it until the Army Corps resolved the issue. Since that time, the Army Corps had visited the site and according to the operator concluded that there were no jurisdictional wet lands in the area. Even though the operator chose to submit an Amendment, the area to be added (35 acres) could have been included to the permit affected acreage, through a Technical Revision process. Post mining land use is the same as was approved in the original application, which is an unlined pond. Present during the inspection was Mr. Ed kite, the operator's representative: The entire 35 acres fo be affected was driven and inspected. There was no standing water or what appeared to be wetlands vegetation noted. However, the entire 35 acres were infested with what appeared to be Musk Thistle. Permit Amendment application sign was properly posted. There were no man made structures other than a fence owned by the operator along the west side that was noted. The amendment area appeared to be as submitted in the Amendment application. I & E Contact Address NAME: MR.
