S s <br /> <br />conveyed runoff from this azea to the 001 ponds. However, construction of the Dutch Creek <br />Diversion eliminated a portion of the ditch, so that drainage from this azea no longer reports to <br />the 001 pond. Straw bales were placed at the western most inlet to the ditch. Straw bales were <br />also placed at the outlet of the ditch (located at the western mazgin of the Dutch Creek <br />Diversion). These inlet and outlet bales will serve to minimize sediment contribution to Dutch <br />Creek. <br />- A series of small berms and larger depressions were constructed between the toe of the newly <br />created refuse azea and the northern perimeter ditch. This system should allow for settling of <br />heavier sediment particles from runoff water. <br />-Eleven straw bales were placed between the discharge point from the berm and depression <br />system and the northern perimeter ditch across a portion of Road A. These bales will serve to <br />remove any remaining sediment from the refuse pile drainage, and from the northern most <br />segment of Road A, prior to dischazging to the old 001 pond inlet ditch and Dutch Creek. <br />B. Comprehensive inspections of all three construction azeas were made on an almost daily <br />basis until November 9, 1998. Installation and periodic modification of the BMP's described in <br />Section A, above, were completed throughout the construction period. No significant problems <br />were observed. As an inactive mine, only one inspection was required to be performed. <br />C. No sampling was accomplished, as little, if any, runoff occurred at the site between <br />permit issuance and the end of construction. <br />C:\sgr\clbsn\strtnw[rpt.wpd <br />
