III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made <br />during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the inspection <br />and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />On the 18th of August, 1997 William J. Carter from the Division of Minerals and Geology, performed <br />a partial inspection of the Hawk's Nest mine. The weather was clear and warm during the inspection. <br />Additional work was performed in the afremoon on the 20th, of August 1997 by both William J. Carter <br />and David Berry. <br />Roads: <br />• The County road going through the property is in the same condition as noted in previous <br />inspections. Some of the reFlectors on the south side of the road appeaz to have been broken <br />while the drilling contractor working at MCC was storing equipment. <br />• The road to the substation east of the sedimentation pond appears to be in good condition. <br />Hydrologic Balance: <br />• Springs continue to discharge. <br />• The sedimentation pond contained some free water at the time of this inspection. <br />Others• <br />• Several of the rockbolts that were intended to hold erosion bales in place, but no longer <br />required, were removed to protect the public. Some rebar that was considered a hazard was <br />also removed. <br />In general it appears that weed control was effective. Some small patches of noxious weeds <br />were skipped and will be treated this Fall. <br />
