(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: M-~ 98CL--246 <br />INSPECTION DATE: ~~.~/~9/n9 INSPECTORS INITIALS: SAP <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This inspection was conducted as apre-operational inspection for an amendment to a 1 12 permit as <br />well as a monitoring inspection for the existing portion of the site. Present at the inspection were Kate <br />Pickford, DRMS, and Rocky Hocker, Hocker Construction. Weather at the time of the inspection was <br />clear, calm, and approximately 60 degrees. <br />2. The site is located off of CR 300, accessed from CR 301. A sign is posted at the entrance to the site. All <br />activities at the site appear to be contained within the boundaries. Disturbance on the existing portion <br />of the site consists of a near vertical highwall at the north end, various roads, a large processing area <br />where the crusher and stockpiles are located, and a mining face that has been sloped to 3H:1 V, <br />unvegetated slope. Much of the site has been mined out, which is the reason for the amendment <br />application. <br />3. The area proposed for amendment is located north of the existing highwall and currently consists of <br />pasture adjacent to the house on the property. Mr. Hocker stated that intimately, the operator desires <br />to amend an area to the south east of the proposed area, but there is an outstanding dispute between <br />the various landowners who hold an interest in the land. If this dispute can be solve, the acreage <br />proposed in this amendment will not be mined and the desired piece of property will be added into the <br />permit. Otherwise, mining will proceed on the currently proposed amended acreage. <br />4. All activities at the site appear to be within the parameters of the current permit and o observations <br />were made during the inspection that would prevent the proposed amendment from being approved. . <br />The Division is still reviewing the amendment application and any questions it has regarding the <br />proposed amendment will be addressed through the adequacy review process. <br />I & E Contact Address Cc: ^ CE <br /> ^ BL <br />NAME: Roy Hocker ~ ^ FS <br /> ^ HW <br />OPERATOR: Hocker Constuction ^ HMWMD (CH) <br />STREET: 41 h7 County Rc~_ 3~1 ^ SE <br /> ~ O QCD (CH) <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: Ignncic~ CC) 811'37 <br />
