Mr. Bob Oswald <br />29 August 2007 <br />Page Two of Five <br />Photo 2- from bridge to mill: This view shows what remains of the mill taken from the entry <br />road to the property. The only major concrete foundation left at the mill is the foundation for <br />the fine ore bin which is shown in the photo. This foundation is in the process of being <br />demolished and will be used for fill just in front of the foundation. The area will then be <br />covered with fill and contoured. The MLRD permit for Camp Bird Colorado, Inc. is posted on <br />the cut off power pole and is clearly visible from the gated bridge. The remaining electrical <br />boxes on the power pole below the permit sign will be removed. <br />Photo 3-from creek to west: A general view of the lower area taken from the embankment <br />along Imogene Creek. What remains of the mill foundation can be seen on the left (this will be <br />removed and the whole area graded) and a small pile of debris is on the right hand side. This is <br />all that is left of the mill-core storage building and will be pushed into the settling pond. The <br />historic manager's residence is visible in the background. <br />Photo 4-lower area from the upper dump: Another general view described in the above photo. <br />This photo shows a better view of what is left of the mill foundation on the left side of the <br />photo. The steep bank shown just beyond the mill foundation will be used for covering the mill <br />slab. <br />Photo 5(a) overlook from road to Revenue; Photo 5(b) overlook from road to Revenue; Photo <br />5(c) overlook from road to Revenue; Photo 5(d) overlook from road to Revenue: These four <br />photos show the genera] view of the mill, Imogene Creek, and the 14 level portal area. It can <br />be seen the considerable amount of reclamation work that has been accomplished in the last <br />three weeks. The culverts, junk and concrete slabs that were in the creek bed have been <br />removed. The west side of the creek has been partially terraced. All of the concrete <br />foundations for the primary crusher building have been removed or buried. The mill <br />foundation is about 60% demolished and transported to the settling pond. The mill-core <br />storage building has been completely demolished. The power line to the secondary substation <br />and the substation have been removed and cleaned up. Most of the buildings in the 141eve1 <br />area have been demolished and the stem walls and concrete slabs broken up and transported to <br />the burial area. <br />Photo 6-portal and former shed: A view of the demolished snowshed covering the 141eve] <br />portal. <br />Photo 7-portal to the north: A view of the portal area showing what is left of the ancillary <br />buildings. All of this material will be transported to the burial site at the far end of the dump. <br />Photo 8-portal to west: A general view looking towards the manager's house. The scrap <br />timber in the center of the photo will be burned. <br />
