0 <br /> (Page 2) <br /> MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID #: M-1977-485 <br /> INSPECTION DATE: Ai igi ict 74, ?nm INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: TW A <br /> OBSERVATIONS <br /> This inspection was conducted as a pre-operation inspection as part of the process of permit conversion from a 110 permit <br /> to a 112c permit. Mr.Troy Crane, County Commissioner and Mr. Clarence Stevenson of County Road and Bridge Department <br /> accompanied Mr.Tony Waldron and me (Al Amundson)on our inspection. The permit area is being increased from 4. 1 acres <br /> to 160 acres. The site has been the location of mining for a considerable time. <br /> We observed the operation's sign,and boundaries, and the significant man-made structures located near the operation. The <br /> sign is adequate, and the boundaries, while not completely marked at this time were approximately located to determine the <br /> presence of structures that could be affected by the mining operation. The structures of note include the county road, <br /> maintained by the county, and fences that the county will likely maintain. North of the property, out of the 200 foot range <br /> is a windmill. <br /> Surface water drainage is presently directed into the pit over the highwall. We discussed conducting the surface flow to a <br /> single point and installation of a rock-lined ditch to conduct the flow in order to prevent erosion of the slopes. This may help <br /> control the water and assist in the operation of the pit. <br /> A portion of the pit, approximately 400 feet along the north boundary pre-dates the law,and should be indicated on the permit <br /> maps as"Pre-law"to prevent misunderstandings in the future. A reduced copy of this was faxed to you separately. If you <br /> choose to disturb the pre-law portion of the pit, then the county becomes responsible for reclamation of this area. <br /> Upon issuance of the permit,this pit will be in compliance with the requirements of the State of Colorado Division of Minerals <br /> and Geology. <br /> I &E Contact Address <br /> cc: 'Er-mr.
