III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE <br />HG Mine C-8003 <br />28 Sept 04 ~ <br />Page 1/1 <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations <br />made during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during <br />the inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a partial inspection of the Hayden Gulch Mine conducted by Jim Stark of <br />CUMG. The mine has gone through a Phase I and Phase II Bond Release on all but <br />approximately nine acres. The mine is currently in its tenth year of liability. The <br />weather was cool and clear and the ground was dry. <br />All of the permit ID signs were in place and in good condition. The signs have been <br />changed to show the new local contact information. <br />Shrub parcel HG-08 was dry at the time of the inspection . There were no erosional <br />problems on the regraded area. The parcel was stable and well vegetated. The <br />pond contained water but was not discharging at the time of the inspection <br />(although the pond is no longer a part of the HG Mine permit). <br />The road to shrub parcel HG-08, parcel E and the 1997 slump area has some minor <br />rutting but remains stable. The road had a couple of wet spots in low areas but was <br />otherwise dry. <br />Shrub Parcel E was dry at the time of the inspection. The parcel was well vegetated <br />and stable and no erosional problems were noted. <br />The 1997 slump area was dry at the time of the inspection. The area was well <br />vegetated and stable. All of the steel stakes placed across the slope remained in <br />alignment. There was no water flowing from any of the drains from the French drain <br />on the slump area. No erosional problems were noted as a result of the runoff this <br />spring. <br />Shrub parcel 003 was well vegetated and appeared to be stable at the time of the <br />inspection. There were no erosional problems noted on the parcel. Pond 003 <br />contained a small amount of water but was not discharging at the time of the <br />inspection. <br />Overall the entire site was very well vegetated and in good condition. <br />
