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 />The scoured cavity behind the Diversion Culvert "A" drop inlet riser had been properly filled in and <br />repaired since the previous inspection. In addition, the large woody debris in the steep rock channel <br />upstream from the culvert had been pulled out of the channel, to prevent the possibility of culvert <br />blockage resulting from future storm flow. <br />The reconstructed sediment pond embankment appeared to be stable, with no evidence of cracking, <br />stumping, or seepage. The embankment and adjacent areas disturbed by the reconstruction had recently <br />been seeded and mulched. A berm had been constructed as requested to divert runoff from the sediment <br />drying area away from the pond embankment and into the sediment pond at an appropriate location. <br />Water level in the sediment pond was just above the elevation of the primary spillway inlet. The inlet <br />valve was closed, and the pond was not discharging. <br />SAE silt fence structures at the topsoil stockpile, construction dirt stockpile, and office area were intact <br />and functional. <br />Maintenance grading and seeding of the scoured diversion segment south and west of the sediment pond <br />and soil stockpiles, as described in the November and December inspection reports, will need to be <br />completed this spring as soon as ground conditions permit. <br />Revegetation <br />Stabilization seeding and straw mulching were recently completed in various recently graded locations, <br />including the pond embankment vicinity, the construction dirt stockpile disturbed by pond embankment <br />construction activity, the construction dirt stockpile SAE outlet area, and the rutted area just north of the <br />haul road across from the sediment pond. Seeded grasses have not yet germinated. <br />4 <br />
