(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: nn_to~~_ett5 <br />INSPECTION DATE: tnm6/OS INSPECTOR=S INITIALS: 4 IW <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This was a normal monitoring inspection conducted by Tony Waldron of DMG along with Clarence Stevenson of <br />Baca County. The site is located approximately 18 miles south of Pritchett, Colorado. The pit is situated along a <br />rise in between East and West Sand Canyon approximately 2 miles north of where they confluence into the <br />main Sand Canyon drainage. The operator converted this site from a 1 lOc permit into a 1 12c permit in 2~1. <br />The site was properly identified and the permit boundaries are clearly delineated by a livestock fence. Since <br />the conversion has occurred, mining has been generally moving to the south and east. The slopes are being <br />mined at 3H:1 Y and topsoil had recently been removed in advance of mining. If this topsoil is not replaced <br />within one year it must be seeded to stabilize and protect this resource. There was a small product stockpile on <br />the floor of the pit. The north end of this site is an un-reclaimed pre-law disturbance. It was suggested that even <br />though the county is not responsible for reclaiming this area, i~ would be certainly help the overall appearance <br />as they begin reclaiming their area if they would at least re-grade and seed the pre-law slopes in an ottempt to <br />provide long term stability. <br />This concluded the inspection. <br />18, E Contact Address <br />NAME: Trov Crane <br />OPERATOR: Baca Cnunty <br />STREET: 7d1 Mnin StraPt <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: S~rir~tialri Cn R107s <br />cc: t CE <br />t BL <br />t FS <br />t HW <br />T HMWMD (CH) <br />I' SE <br />t WQCD (CHI <br />T OTHER <br />
