(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: M- 1991 -nRn <br />INSPECTION DATE: 11 /19 /n9 INSPECTOR ❑S INITIALS: RK <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />The Division conducted a follow up monitoring inspection of the site as part of sites to <br />be inspected during fiscal years 2009 and 2010. The site was active at the time of the <br />inspection. Two excavators and a dozer were working the pit area. In 2005 the post mining <br />land use was changed to a horse Corral. Present during the inspection was Mr. Russ <br />Vanagmond, the operator. <br />The current disturbance was about the same as was observed during the last inspection. <br />Most of the activity is limited to the same area and deepening the pit. Operator is <br />allowed to blast the granite and utilizes a licensed professional to do the job. <br />Total permitted acres is 10 with a maximum area to be affected not to exceed 8 acres. <br />Adjacent to the permit along the North side is a custom gravel and landscaping supply <br />area. <br />All of the permit area is fenced and the appropriate permit boundary markers and permit <br />sign was posted. <br />There was a small amount of processed material located along the North side of the active <br />mining area. Mr. Vanagmond stated due to the slow economy, not much mining activity was <br />conducted during the past year but he expects things to pick up during the coming year. <br />The entire affected area was walked and inspected, given the fact that post mining land <br />use is a horse corral, with no re- vegetation cost and the fact that the granite is <br />blasted and the area graded to a slope compatible to what a horse corral will be during <br />mining, the current warranty in the amount of $5,080.00 is deemed adequate. Operator has <br />to maintain the pit slope of at least2:1 and not go deeper than was approved in the <br />reclamation plan. If the operator wants to go deeper than was approved in the original <br />permit, the operator can amend the permit through a Revision process. <br />At present the operation is in compliance with the approved reclamation plan. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: MR.
