ORIGINAL - PUBLIC FILE <br />(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: M-1986-025 <br />INSPECTION DATE: A_rinin2 INSPECTORS INITIALS: _ RK <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />The Division conducted a monitoring inspection of the site as part of sites to be <br />inspected during the fiscal years 208-2009. <br />The site is a small 110 construction materials located approximately 3 miles North East of <br />Calhan Colorado. Present during the inspection was Mr. Greg Newline of R.E MONK <br />construction. <br />Site was not active at the time of the inspection but evidence of recent mining activity <br />was observed. Mining is from west to east with top soil stockpiled along the South side. <br />Mr. Newline was notified that if the top soil is not going to be utilized within 180 days <br />to conduct concurrent reclamation, it should be stabilized utilizing native seeds. Given <br />the area being well known for prevailing high winds, the operator agreed to stabilize the <br />top soil if not used into reclaim the areas exhausted of mining. <br />Approximately 3 acres appeared to have been affected, including the top soil storage area. <br />The total permitted acres is 9.5 of which 9.0 acres can be affected, with 5 acres maximum <br />to be affected at any given time. <br />A small amount of processed stockpiled material was noted along the south East side of the <br />main pit area. According to Mr. Newline the sub contractor who is mining the site only <br />removes material on as need basis and does not expect the pit size to grow. However if <br />mining plan changes and demand grows, operator will have to notify the Division so the <br />warranty can be adjusted accordingly. Operator is also encouraged to conduct concurrent <br />reclamation. <br />Currently the Division is holding a warranty in the Amount of $11,500.00, which appears to <br />be adequate. Permit sign and boundary markers properly posted. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: MR GREG NEWLIN <br />OPERATOR: R.E MONKS CONSTRUCTION <br />ADDRESS P.O.BOX 25579 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: CC)I ORADO SPRINGS CC) 80936 <br />cc: IF CE JOHN AMES/FOREST S <br />F HW <br />F HMWMD (CH) <br />F <br />F SE <br />F WQCD (CH) <br />F OTHER <br />F BL <br />F FS,
