<br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-2001-063 <br />INSPECTION DATE 10/2/01 <br />As noted above, natural drainages on the site will have to be crossed by vehicles and equipment, and description of all <br />structural work performed to ensure stable crossings must be provided to this office. One area in particular, being the lower <br />50 or 100 feet of the old road leading up to the loffsitel Unity Mutual Mine portal was indicated by the operator as a <br />possible vehicle parking or equipment storage area. This use would require another one or two culverted stream crossings. <br />Again, if culverts are needed, please do not use galvanized steel or steel. The operator also runs the risk of contaminants <br />from the equipment directly affecting the stream. The portal area would be preferable as such a parking or storage area. <br />The new maps are a good step in the right direction, but require additional information to be added to them. Please refer <br />to Rule 6.2.112) for map standards and Rule 6.3.5(2) and 131 for required content of the mining map and reclamation map <br />(such as labeling the permit boundary line, ore storage areas, soil stockpiling areas, potential dump area, stream crossing <br />structures, water sampling locations, equipment storage and vehicle parking areas, landowners, etc.). The revised maps <br />may be submitted along with the other adequacy responses to be submitted or separately. <br />There were no further observations or discussion during the inspection. This inspector appreciates the operator's effort <br />and expense involved with being present for this inspection. All responses or questions about this inspection report should <br />be directed to this inspector at the Division's Durango Field Office.
