(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: X107-031 <br />INSPECTION DATE: 5/96!10 INSPECTORS INITIALS: RK _ <br />OBSERVATIONS <br />The Division conducted an inspection of the site while in the area conducting other <br />inspections. The site a small sluicing operation for gold and silver during the summer <br />months. The main purpose of the inspection was to verify the fact that the operation has <br />adequate free board in the ponds prior to commencement of operation. All the water for <br />the operation is hauled to the site. Operator has an active discharge permit from the <br />Colorado Department of Health. <br />The site was not active at the time of the inspection. Permit sign properly posted at the <br />access to the property. <br />The entire permit area is fenced. All ponds holding water, with adequate free board. A <br />couple of front end loaders utilized to restrict access to the property. <br />The site was as described during the last site visit to verify pond levels. If the <br />operator plans to commence operation, it is important not to exceed the limits of mining <br />along the West side. The permit boundary fence is barely hanging delineating the limits <br />of mining in this area, due to instability of the fence. Operator has been notified of <br />this issue in the past. Since the boundary has not been exceeded it will not be cited as <br />a possible problem. The fact that the fence is hanging like it is not considered a <br />possible problem unless the operator affects area outside of the fence line-The current <br />warranty in place in the amount of $6352.00 is more than adequate to cover the cost of <br />reclamation. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: MR.FOSTER SCOTT <br />OPERATOR: THE TURQUOISE CONNECTION <br />STREET: 910 PRAY AVE <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: CANON CITY, C-0 61919 <br />cc: r CE <br />F BL <br />F FS, <br />F HW <br />F HMWMD (CH) <br />F <br />F SE <br />F WQCD (CH) <br />F OTHER
