<br />III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE ~ <br />PAY, I ~/In ~nL1 C-~3-o~ <br />l~~,FUfd~2vo1 ~d~ <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion f 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 Twin Pines Mine conducted by Jim Stark of CDMG. <br />The bond for this site was forfeited after reclamation was completed. The weather <br />was warm and cloudy and the ground was wet. <br />The portal area is well vegetated and in good condition. The upper part of the road <br />to the portal area is showing some minor erosional problems (minor rills) but is in <br />overall good shape. These rills are a bit larger than last month due to recent rain. <br />This upper part of the road is also beginning to fill in with vegetation. There was water <br />pooled up on the portal bench area due to the daily rain over the past week. The <br />remaining highwall still appears to be stable and in good condition. The remaining <br />sediment pond contained a small amount of water at the bottom and was well <br />vegetated. <br />The coal sales/tipple area was also well vegetated and in good condition. There has <br />been very little grazing at this site so far this summer and the vegetation is looking <br />good. The remaining sediment pond was full and looked like it may have discharged <br />at some point (there was water pooled at the bottom of the outfall). The pond <br />appeared to be well vegetated and in good condition. The access road is a county <br />road, which was well maintained and in good condition. <br />Overall both areas at the Twin Pines Mine are in good condition. <br />
