<br />III. Comments/Compliance <br />This was an aerial inspection conducted by Jim Burnell of CDMG from photos taken on the <br />afternoon of Tuesday, May 6, 2003. The mine site was quiet and deserted. Weather was <br />sunny. The ground was clear. <br />There was no sign of instability or erosion on the west side of Hubbard Creek. The former <br />stockpile area was very green. That area is stable also. <br />The benches -both upper and lower -were stable. There was no indication of instability on <br />either bench. the sparsely-vegetated areas to the south ends of both benches stands our <br />very clearly on the air photos. The small seep at the north end of the lower bench was <br />actively seeping. <br />Pond 5 contained some muddy water. The ditches, however, contained no water. Hubbard <br />Creek was flowing and the water was clear both above and below the Blue Ribbon Mine <br />area. <br />The upper road to the upper bench showed no sign of instability or erosion. The lower road <br />also appeared to be stable. <br />Pond 3 and 4 were both empty. The embankments appeared stable in the air photos. <br />The lower access road showed no signs of instability or erosion. <br />The access road (Hubbard Canyon road) appears in good condition. <br />
