III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations <br />made during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during <br />the inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a partial inspection conducted by Janet Binns of CDMG. The Grassy Gap mine is a reclaimed surface <br />mine. The mine permit and reclamation liability bond have been revoked by DMG. Weather in the mine azea <br />has been very dry this spring. Alight snow fell the night of May 7, 2002. Soil surfaces were damp from <br />snowmelt from this storm. All snow was melted offby the time [he inspection was conducted. <br />Sins & Markers : DMG informational sign remains at intersection between Pit 2/3 road and Pit 5/6 road. Main <br />entrance gate at Routt County Road No. 27 was open and not locked. <br />Roads : The access road to Pit 5 and 6 remains in good condition. Ditch along side Pit 5 access road has filled <br />with sediment and grassed in. Runoff flow through this ditch appears to still be functional. Access road to pit 1 <br />was soft and muddy and not traveled. The access roads to Pits 2/3 was accessible. Rolled dips along the Pit 2/3 <br />access road have filled with sediment. The majority of water from the native springs on access road 2/3 is <br />directed off the roadway. The spring flow cuts across the road in two places,-yet the road is still driveable. A <br />gully, roughly 8-12 inches deep has formed across the upper portion of Access road 2/3. Access directly into the <br />upper pits was no[ attempted though the pits could be accessed on foot. <br />Hydrologic Balance: Pond 5 was discharging. Pond 5 appears stable. No additional slumping of the pond cut <br />slope, or of the pond inlet was apparent. Pit 5 spoil spring is flowing. <br />Reve eg tation: Vegetation in the pit azeas appeared to be in fair to good condition. This spring has been <br />unusually dry. Grasses are just beginning to green up and remain small-about 4 inches in height. Few weedy <br />species were noted. Livestock has not been on the Grassy Gap mine yet this growing season. One small bare <br />area was observed on the southern slope of Pit 5 just below the Aspen. This bare area is not showing evidence of <br />accelerated erosion. <br />Slides; No new slide areas were observed. Old slide located down slope of pit 4 has naturally revegetated and <br />shows no sign of further downward movement. <br />Wildlife: Marmots were noted around the mine site. <br />
