<br />III. Comments - Compliance <br />Below are particular issues with regard to any of the compliance items. <br />Enforcement actions resulting from failure to comply with the Act, kules <br />and Regulations, and the permit also are identified below. <br />5.02.4 - Availability of Records <br />The following records were current and on file at the mine <br />office: CMLRU permit application, well depth reports, and ground water <br />quality monitoring reports. No blasting occurs at the mine site. <br />NPDES quarterly reports have been filed with the Division. A <br />copy of these reports should also be on file at the mine office. <br />4.02 - Signs and Markers <br />After the issuance of the pending mining and reclamation Permit <br />No. C-021-81, all mine permit and I.D. signs should be updated to reflect <br />the new permit number. <br />4.03 - Roads <br />Road surfaces wre muddy. All road drainage structures were <br />functional. <br />4.05 - Hydrologic Balance <br />All sediment ponds and diversions were found functional. Some <br />sedimentation has occurred in the diversion near pond C. This will not <br />affect the functioning of the diversion, and cleaning will take place as <br />drying occurs. <br />Areas of seepage within the pit were inspected. The operator <br />is convinced that water is appearing from an underground connection with <br />the B sediment pond. Pit water is pwnped into pond C and used for dust <br />suppression. <br />As a precaution against seepage from pond C, the operator has <br />sealed around the outside of the pond using a clay bench ten feet wide <br />compacted around the perimeter of the pond facing the pit. <br />4.06 - Topsoil <br />Some aaditional topsoil has been stripped north of the office. <br />Saline topsoil in the area has been removed and placed in Saline/Sodic <br />stockpile B. <br />
