MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: m-i 993- n( A <br />INSPECTION DATE: 6-1 79109 INSPECTOR=S INITIALS: -JLF <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />This was a follow-up inspection of the Navajo Clay Mine, DRMS File# M-1993-004, operated by General Shale <br />Brick, Inc. This site is located approximately 10 miles north east of the town of Kiowa, in Elbert County, <br />Colorado. Mr. Jason McGraw of General Shale Brick, Inc. accompanied me on the inspection. <br />This site was inspected on June 9th, 2008 in order for the Division to process a permit transfer from Robinson <br />Brick to General Shale Brick. During that inspection it was observed that the storm water pond located on the <br />south west end of the processing pad area had been damaged by erosion. This issue was cited as a problem in <br />that inspection report and the current inspection was conducted to order to evaluate the current condition of <br />the storm water pond. <br />At the time of this inspection is appears that the storm water pond has been improved and is functioning <br />properly. According to Mr. McGraw, this impoundment has been constructed to handle a 10 year rain event. <br />The rip-rap inlet has been reconstructed and a rubber liner has been placed under the rip-rap. Overall, it <br />appears that this problem has been abated at this time.
