This is a forfeited site. The weather was clear at the start of the <br />inspection but a thunderstorm was coming up at the end of the inspection. Valley <br />mine operators have stated that the area has received heavy rains recently. <br />Roads <br />The county road was in good shape although there was evidence of a cleanup <br />operation on the road. Recent heavy rains caused mud to flow onto the road from <br />the north road cut. <br />Hydroloov <br />There was only a small amount of water in the pond. The concrete spillway was <br />functional. The pond outslopes and inslopes were well vegetated and appeared <br />to be stable. <br />There was no gullying observed at the reclaimed mine site. The easternmost <br />culvert needs maintenance at the inlet and at the outlet. <br />The alluvial well on the west side of the site had its wellcap secure. <br />Signs and Markers <br />The stream buffer marker signs were up along the river. <br />C: \ms 971hawksnest\insp0899 <br />
