(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-1993-023 <br />INSPECTION DATE 07/12/2006 <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS DEG <br />This routine monitoring inspection of Permit Number M-1993-023 (Cross Mountain Pit #1) was conducted by Deb E. Gbnima of <br />the DMG. Moffat County representative Marvin Moore was present during this inspection. The pit is located approximately 15 <br />miles east of Greystone, CO on County Road No. 10, and currently consists of approximately 20 acres where approximately 15 <br />acres have been disturbed. <br />Mine entrance signs and permit boundary markers are all in place, and topsoil stockpiles are all well-marked. All activities and <br />completed work at the time of inspection appeared to follow the guidelines and regulations set forth by the state and the mining <br />and reclamation plans for the pit, and no problems are noted for this site. The site is stable and no disturbance was observed <br />outside of the approved permit boundaries. For future reference, this site is correctly positioned in the DMG online GIS. <br />The large material stockpile is situated near the northern-center of the site, west of the mine entrance. The majority of the site <br />has been graded and seeded for reclamation. However, vegetation on this site has not yet become well-established over the <br />whole site (see photos 3-4). The pit area, in the shape of a basin, has been reseeded, and lies on the western portion of the site <br />(see photo 2). The entrance to this basin has been lined with riprap as part of the storm water runoff control program that was <br />implemented a few years back (see photo 1). This plan seems to have been successful in its use of diversion structures, <br />sediment traps, and small ponding areas. There appears to be no offsite erosion, and no long-term (greater than 72 hours) <br />water retention was observed. <br />Responses to this inspection report should be directed to Deb E.
