Banta, <br />Division Director <br />Re: First Ouarter, 1991 Reports, Orchard Valley Mine, Permit C-81-038 <br />Dear Mr. Koehler: <br />The Division has received and reviewed the first quarter 1991 reports. These <br />included NPDES DMRs, monitoring reports for East Roatcap Creek and two <br />Steven's Gulch alluvial wells, sediment pond self inspections and quarterly <br />certified reports for the new ~raste pile. As per our phone conversation of <br />May 1, 1991, we agreed that quarterly inspections and monitoring reports are <br />no longer necessary for the old waste pile (see Rule 4.10.2/2)la1 since <br />construction and final reclamation occurred in 1987. <br />We also concur with your belief that the sediment pond self inspection report <br />need only be submitted Quarterly as specified in Rule 4.05.6(101. COVCC must <br />still inspect sediment levels monthly as required by the Permit Volume 8A <br />Sedimentation Ponds Sediment Monitoring Program. The re suits of these monthly <br />sediment inspections should be included on the quarterly reports. <br />Thank you for your timely submittal. <br />Sin rely, <br />I <br />Carl B. Mount <br />Reclamation Specialist <br />CBM/ern <br />5311E <br />
