Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the inspection and the <br /> facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br /> This was a partial inspection conducted by Janet Binns of Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining <br /> and Safety. The mine is a reclaimed surface mine. The weather was wet and cloudy. Only the load out <br /> was inspected. The area has been receiving numerous strong thunderstorms. <br /> Hydrologic Balance: The Load Out pond was not discharging but the pond was holding a pool of clear <br /> water. The pond embankments were well vegetated with no maintenance concerns noted. <br /> Reclamation Success: The Division continues to retain liability bond for the Load Out. Vegetation at <br /> the Load Out remains in good condition. With the recent rains the vegetation has greened up and is <br /> growing well. No weedy patches were encountered that need weed control. <br /> Offsite support facilities: There has been no new activity at the load out. The gate remains locked. No <br /> problems noted with the load out pond or with the reclaimed load out area. <br /> Wildlife: A female Pronghorn antelope was present on the Load out.
