Don Blake, Lincoln County Land Use Administrator, represented the county. <br />The permit area is properly signed and marked. <br />Mining has ceased at this pit. The county reclaimed the site in the past, however, the re-vegetation effort <br />tailed. The pit side slopes are graded but severely eroded. The topsoil and other reclamation materials that <br />were used for the reclamation effort were deposited on the pit floor. There is no positive drainage from the pit <br />and the soil has not been lost. The pit side slopes require regarding. The County should then excavate the soil <br />material off the pit floor and replace it on the slopes for final reclamation. It appears that overland flow from <br />outside the pit may be adding to the side slope erosion. If the County continues to experience erosion of the <br />pit slopes, the County should consider diverting overland flows away from the pit perimeter to a safe outlet. The <br />addition of a diversion to the permit area would first require a technical revision of the permit. <br />There: are no problems of this permit area <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: <br />OPERATOR: Lincoln Counf~ <br />STREET: P (~ Rnx 39 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: uuga, Cn RnA9t <br />Cc: Harry Posey via a-mail <br />
