mine site a':the time of the inspection. The road up to the reclaimed portal access was dry and stable.
Power poles removed from the canyon are still stockpiled along the north side of the access road (see

Mine to support an existing fiber optic cable. The poles will extend from the McClane office area up
to the portals. This plan has been approved by DRMS with Minor Revision No. 48 for the McClane
Canyon Mine.
