• ~~ <br />II. Compliance with Colorado Surface Coal Mining Reclamation Act <br />CRS 1973, as amended 39-33-101, et. s_e1c., <br />and the <br />Rules and Regulations Issued Pursuant to the Act <br />This includes a Zisting of the particular provisions of the regulatory program which were <br />examined during the course of this inspection, and identifies enforcement actions taken <br />during the inspection for failure to comply with the Rules and Regulations, the Act and <br />the permit. <br />4,02 Sions and Markers <br />Perimeter markers were not checked during the course of this inspection. However, <br />the April 24, 1981 compliance deadline is still in effect and a thorough inspection of <br />the perimeter of the permit area will be made in June. This perimeter should be marked <br />so that a person can follow the permit boundary (as shown on Exhibit A, Mining Plan <br />Map) all the way around the surface facilities area. <br />4.03 Roads <br />All mine site roads have been graded recently. Ditches have been cleaned out <br />and re-established where necessary, and the coal stockpile area drainage has been <br />repaired. <br />4.05 Hydrologic Balance <br />1. The diversion ditch from the mine bench to sediment pond 1i2 was being repaired <br />at the time of this inspection. Several Large rocks had fallen into the channel, as <br />well as some fill material .from the face of the bench slope. This problem must be <br />corrected by June 12, 1981. <br />2. The outlet to sediment pond 1tI has been cleared of willow stems and a wire screen <br />has been placed over the opening in an effort to prevent the resident muskrat from <br />clogging up the opening. <br />3. The trash on the first switchback below the mine bench has been removed and hay <br />bales replaced. The culvert immediately below this switchback has been cleaned out and <br />proper drainage restored. This culvert appears to fill in quite frequently and should <br />be monitored closely. <br />4. The culvert at the coal stockpile area has not been repaired yet. The inlet end <br />of this culvert must be repaired or replaced by June 8, 1981. The ditch system for <br />this area has been repaired, however, and should function well. <br />5. Sediment pond N3 must be completed by June 29, 1981. <br />6. The area on the extreme North end of the mine bench has been regraded somewhat <br />in order to provide proper drainage from the bench area to the inlet end of the diversion <br />pipe, but it appears that water may still pool in this area. Proper drainage must be <br />restored by June 8, 1981. <br />
