Ili. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. been increased. A silt fence will be installed below the coal pad at the stack tubes to prevent wind blown coal from being transported to the undisturbed oak brush stand. The Division recommended that road base material be placed on the lay-down area to encompass the area adjacent to D1-3. This should prevent excess sediment from entering the ditch and subsequently the pond. Ditches and culverts noted for cleaning during last month's inspection have been cleaned. The outlet of C2-8 requires cleaning. Hay bales were replaced in D2R-5. I recommended that 3 hay bales be placed in the ditch rather than two. Two hay bales meeting in the center of the ditch, is more likely to cause erosion than with one hay bale placed across the bottom of the ditch and one hay bale on each side slope. Hay bales were placed on the east side of the construction access road ditch but not the west side. These hay bales should be replaced as well. Riprap has been placed at the outlet of the spillway for MB-2R. TOPSOIL There is still a draining seep low on the relocated topsoil pile. It appears that the water is not only from surface water. A small scarp is also beginning to develop. If this problem continues, MCC may need to investigate the source of the water. A french drain was constructed in this area at the time the topsoil pile was relocated due to a spring that was discovered. SUPPORT FACILITIES MCC is planning to submit a revision to locate the rebuilt hydraulic parts storage area to the site of the current waste oil tank once it is removed and decommissioned. The new site for these parts is advantageous as hydraulic oil from leaking parts can be contained in a concrete berm. At the present they are now located on the south side of the warehouse over the bare ground. Once the parts area is relocated, contaminated soil should be removed, tested if necessary, and disposed of properly. The revision should contain information to this effect. Care should be taken to ensure that coal stockpiles at the stack tubes will not be pushed into undisturbed areas. Coal stockpiles at the west end of the pad is getting close to the Undisturbed area. MCC has placed barrels with waste material on spill containment pallets. The barrels sit on a slatted top with a catch basin. This is a temporary measure until the covered barrel storage area can be constructed.
