III. Comments/Compliance <br />This was a partial inspection conducted by Jim Burnell of CDMG on the morning of <br />Wednesday, May 7, 2002. This site itself was quiet and deserted although there were <br />sheep grazing on the west side of Hubbard Creek. The weather was cool and clear. <br />Hubbard Creek was running clear, but very low for the season -not quite one cfs. Silt fence <br />was erected in front of the gate, apparently to discourage the sheep from encroaching on the <br />mine site. That barrier was trampled down on my way in, but had been raised again by the <br />time I left. <br />The path (road) to the upper bench was stable with no erosion. Vegetative growth was <br />excellent. The upper bench was very green, stable, with no erosion. The lower bench was <br />also very green, with very good grass growth. There was a wet area at the seep on the west <br />end of the lower bench, but no other sign of water. None of the underdrains were <br />discharging, and the ditch was dry. <br />Ponds 5, 4, and 3 were all dry. The embankments were stable and the discharge devices <br />clear. <br />The road up Hubbard Canyon had recently been bladed, with slumped material removed. <br />All signs were in place and correct. <br />
