Box 459 <br />Florence, CO 81226 <br />RE: Marr Mine, Permit C- 1980 -006 <br />Second Quarter 2011 Sediment Pond Inspection Report <br />Dear Mr. Patterson: <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety (Division) has reviewed and found the above <br />referenced report to be in compliance with the following Division regulations: 4.05.9(14), 4.05.9(15), and <br />4.05.9(17). <br />The second quarter sediment pond inspection reports were received by the Division on July 8, 2011. Mr. <br />James Mossman inspected the Loadout Pond on June 20, 2011. Per the report, the pond was functioning as <br />designed at the time of the inspection, and no identified maintenance action items were identified. <br />However, Mr. Brian Len of Northwest Colorado Consultants, Inc. (NWCC) inspected the Loadout Pond on <br />May 9, 2011 and wrote a Certified Sediment Pond Inspection Report, which recommends maintenance of the <br />embankment beside the outlet channel. Willows and root balls should be removed and holes filled and <br />compacted. These maintenance items should be performed this summer unless the reclamation of the pond <br />will be started this summer or autumn. <br />If you have any questions feel free to contact me at (303) 866 -3567, extension 8113. <br />Sincerely, <br />Robert Zu. -r, P.E. <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Office of <br />Mined I. and Reclamation <br />STATE OF COLORADO <br />Cc: NWCC, 2580 Copper Ridge Drive, Steamboat Springs, CO 80487, attn: Nicholle <br />COLORADO <br />D I V I S I O N O F <br />RECLAMATION <br />MINING <br />— &— <br />SAFETY <br />John W.
