Second Quarter, 1997 Sedimentation Pond Inspections <br />Dear Mr. Hernandez; <br />Sediment Pond inspection reports were not completed for [he sediment ponds associated with Permit No. <br />C-84-062 for the second quarter of 1997. CYCC feels that the requirements of Rule 4.05.6(13) were met <br />for the second quarter; however, the report fomts were no[ completed due to an oversight. <br />Both ponds associated with Permit No. C-84-062 are visited on a weekly basis to collect samples as <br />required by NPDES permits CO-0027154 and COG-850013. Visual inspections with regard to any <br />structural problems, erosion, or hazardous conditions would be noted and repairs scheduled for the pond, if <br />necessary. A registered professional engineer, experienced in the construction of sedimentation ponds, <br />visited each of the ponds' associated with Permit No. C-84-062 ten times during the second quarter. <br />A complete Coal Inspection for Mine 3 was completed on May 29, 1997 by Jane[ Binns with Gayle <br />Noonan as the representative for Colorado Yampa Coal Company. No problems were noted with regard to <br />either of [he ponds during [his inspection. <br />The Third Quarter pond inspection reports for Permit C-84-062 were completed and mailed [o Janet Binns <br />on August I, 1997. No problems were noted with regard to either of [he ponds in the inspection reports. <br />CYCC is proposing that [ttese inspection reports be considered as second and third quarter reports for <br />Penn i[ C-84-062. Fourth quarter reports will be completed in the first part of the quarter, prior to excessive <br />snow cover. <br />Thank you for your cooperation in [his matter. If you have any questions, or require further information, <br />please contact me az (970) 870-2750. <br />COLORADO YAMPA COAL COMPANY <br />l~/j`T' ~i/~~~ <br />CTavis D.
