Comments also describe any enforcement actions taken during the inspection <br /> and the facts or evidence supporting the enforcement action. <br /> This was a partial inspection conducted by Kent Gorham of the Colorado Division of <br /> Reclamation, Mining, and Safety (Division). This mine is in permanent cessation and <br /> reclamation of most areas is complete. The weather on this day was sunny and <br /> temperatures were mild. Ground conditions were snow-covered. <br /> Roads <br /> The access road into the site was snow-covered but passable. <br /> Hydrologic Balance <br /> Two ponds exist at the site, Pond 4 located below the RDA on the Vento property and Pond <br /> 5 below the reclaimed main facility located on the Corley property. At the present time, both <br /> ponds are scheduled to be reclaimed at some point in the future, in accordance with the <br /> approved reclamation plan. Both pond embankments also serve as portions of light-use <br /> roads that are approved to remain. The operator may want to consider a revision to the <br /> approved reclamation plan to leave one or both of the ponds as permanent structures. The <br /> area below Pond 5 is shown below. <br /> ♦ •.; <br /> M <br /> i <br /> d Flume for pond discharge <br /> measurement <br /> ru� <br /> r <br /> 3 <br />
