This inspection was conducted as part of the Division of Minerals and Geology's 4-year monitoring program. <br />Present at the inspection were Kate Pickford, DMG, and Joe Intermill, Colorado Division of Highways. Weather <br />at the time of the inspection was cloudy, windy, and approximately 40 degrees. <br />2. The site consists of a pit that has been partially excavated and numerous material stockpiles on the ground <br />outside of the pit. The state uses material from the site periodically for road maintenance, and expects to <br />continue extracting materials from the site. The pit slopes at the site will require some grading from their <br />current condition for reclamation. The reclamation plan indicates that slopes at the site will be not steeper than <br />2:1, whereas some of the slopes of the pit are currently approximately 1.5:1. <br />3. Topsoil is stockpiled at the site for future use during reclamation. The only vegetation on the topsoil <br />stockpile are a few weeds, none of which appear to be noxious weeds. Mr. Intermill indicated that if the <br />stockpile was seeded, nothing would likely grow as a result, due to the limited amounts of precipitation at the <br />site. It does not appear that vegetation would readily grow on the stockpile in that much of the area is exposed <br />soil with no grasses or weeds growing on it. <br />4. All activities and conditions at the site appear to be in compliance with the approved permit. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: Mr. Eric Prieve <br />OPERATOR: Colorado Division of Hiahwavs <br />STREET: 4340 E.
