I discussed <br />~+ith the operator the outlet of the haul road drainage ditch along the west ridge haul <br />road at culvert C-1. Although significant erosion of the side slope at this point has <br />occured, the side slope is now fairly stable since erosion has now e.rposed stable, larger <br />size rock, It was decided that it was impractical to disturb the outslope furtr~er. <br />tJe will watch the condition of this site closely next Spring. <br />It was noted in the Last report *_hat the berm along the "Goat Trail" needed to <br />be reestablished in spots. G•layne said this had been done, but a visual insoect_'onty <br />myself was not possible because of snow, This will be checked next inspection, ?` <br />weather permits. <br />The Division agreed that gullies that had formed in a few places on the outslope <br />of the "Goat Trail" could not be feasibly corrected. <br />4.04 Svttort Facilities <br />A visual inspection of the conveyor revealed that aZ1 metal stlices in the belt <br />have been removed and vulcanized. However, coal fines mntinve to spill from the under- <br />side of the belt at points where the belt rollers contact the underside of t.ie belt. <br />The operator must develop a plan to prevent additional contributions of coal fines <br />onto the hi11s1ope under the conveyor. <br />4.05 Hudroloaic Balance <br />The Sti 1Z Pre •rention Control and Countermeasure Plans required under the VP DES <br />permit have been implemented at the loadout. The site is now designed such that any <br />spills can be containe3 to prevent discharge into Oak Creek. <br />4.06 Tots oil <br />Topsoil salvaging in o-lest Ridge was adequate to Zast until next Spring. "!o <br />problems were identified. <br />4.14 BacY.filZina and Grading <br />Grading was being done on spoil ridges in Pest Ridge to shorten the access ramp <br />into the pit. <br />4.15 Reve getati on <br />The sediment ponds and adjacent areas at the loadout have been seeded this Fall. <br />
