<br />III. COMMENTS -COMPLIANCE <br />Below are comments on the inspection. The comments include discussion of observations made during <br />the inspection. Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the inspection and the <br />facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br />This was a complete inspection of the La Plata Coal Mine for the month of July, 2001. Henry Austin from <br />the OSM was present during the inspection. <br />HYDROLOGIC BALANCE: The site is stable and erosion is equal to or less than the surrounding areas. <br />GENERAL MINE COMPLIANCE: The site is very stable could apply for a phase III bond release to <br />release the bank from further obligations at this site . Some areas of the site require weed spraying as <br />leafy spurge and knapweed are starting to expand and if not stopped soon, may become very costly to <br />eradicate. <br />RECLAMATION SUCCESS: Vegetation on the whole is outstanding. <br />
