<br /> <br />III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made <br />during the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the <br />inspection and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />On January 19, 1994 a partial inspection was conducted at the Marr Strip Mine. <br />Present at the inspection was George Patterson and James Mossman. At the <br />time of the inspection the weather was clear and windy. Much of the snow on <br />ridges had been blown off, but flat areas had a foot or more of snow on the <br />ground packed around the sage. <br />The mine is in full backfilling mode of the 720 pit. By January 28, 1994 <br />backfilling of the pit should be completed. At the time of the inspection seven <br />scrapers and 3 dozers were noted working tiuching up the now reclaimed 720 <br />pit. Material was being removed from just west of pond A and was being placed <br />at the base of the former location of the highwall to blend in this slope. The <br />general appearance of the reclaimed topography looked good; the reclaimed <br />area blended well with the surrounding topography. The remaining topsoil piles <br />are now the only disturbed landmarks. The north, west and south perimeters of <br />the 720 pit were inspected. <br />After backfilling is completed next week further reclamation of the pit will be <br />done this summer. Frozen soil prevented complete reclamation at this time. <br />
