The Gray PR No. 1 is located approximately 8 miles east of Montrose. The weather was cloudy with intermittent <br />snow showers that did not prevent or hinder the inspection. The inspector was accompanied by fellow DMG Staff Member, <br />Steve Shuey and operator's representative Mike Ripp. <br />The purpose of this inspection is apre-operational visit to the site to identify any issues that may have been missed in the <br />application. <br />The site is approximately one half mile north of Highway 50 along the drainage floor of two ridges. The site may be partialty <br />visible during the beginning phases of the operation. However, it appears that most activities will be screened by an earthen <br />dike and natural topography. <br />The proper public notice was observed at the site entrance just off the highway. Boundary markers were noted as t-posts at <br />critical comers. It is highly recommended that the operator mark boundary lines more thoroughly to insure that no disturbance <br />outside the permitted area occurs. <br />No permanent structures or features appear to have been missed wfthin the permit application other than those identified in <br />the Preliminary Adequacy Review. <br />There appears to be sufficient topsoil and overburden to arxomplish the stated goals of the Reclamation Plan. Wetlands will <br />be protected with markers and silt fencing. The site is populated by juniper, oakbrush and pinion on the ridges. Sagebrush, <br />rabbitbrush and various grasses were also abundant. <br />No other issues were noted at this time. <br />Responses to this inspection report should be directed to Russ.
