<br />INSPECTION REPORT <br />HAYDEN GULCH MINE <br />H-G COAL COMPANY - OWNER <br />OCTOBER 5, 1983 <br />The inspection of the permanent waste dump located in the east half of <br />Section 30, T5N R881J was required in the Surface Coal Mining and re- <br />clamation operations - Permanent Regulatory program. The area bound- <br />aries on the attached map are only rough approximations. <br />1. Area A-1 is reclaimed and all slopes are 3:1 or flatter and <br />appear stable. Area A-2 is reclaimed. This area contains <br />slopes as steep as 2.3:1 but is a cut slope, not a fill em- <br />bankment, and it appears stable. Vegetative growth is evi- <br />dent in both A-1 and A-2 areas. <br />2. Area B has been recontoured, topsoiled, seeded, and mulched. <br />All slopes in Area B are 3:1 or flatter and appear stable. <br />Vegetative growth is evident. <br />3. Area C has been recontoured, topsoiled, seeded, and mulched. <br />Minor vegetative growth is evident and is expected to be as <br />productive as the other areas. <br />4. Area D has been recontoured to a 3:1 slope. The area has been <br />topsoiled, seeded and mulched. Vegetative growth is evident. <br />5. Drainage from the dump area is controlled by interceptor <br />channels and sediment control structures so as not to degrade <br />surface or ground water. <br />6. The waste dump is being constructed using recognized pro- <br />fessional standards. <br />7. All vegetative and organic matter has been removed from the <br />disposal area, and the topsoil has been stripped and stock- <br />piled far• future use. <br />
