The cable guard was in place and there were no problems <br />with debris blocking the road. <br />RECLAMATION SUCCESS - Rule 4.15, Rule 3: <br />The reclaimed fan site was well vegetated and stable. No settling cracks were observed. The same was true <br />with the access road leading to the reclaimed fan site. The backfilled portal area continues to show instability. <br />REVEGETATION — Rule 4.15 ❑ ❑Vegetative Cover; Timing: <br />Tamarisk continues to grow in the hillside spring water area, treatment pond and discharge area near the <br />river. Thistle was seen along the reclaimed access road and at the backfilled portal area. The flat facilities area has <br />poor to moderate vegetative cover. The former mine shop area is barren of any vegetative growth. <br />SLIDES and DAMAGE - Rule 4.12: <br />The backfilled portal area continues to show slope instability. It appears that dirt and rock from the hillside <br />above has fallen down and covered some of the cracks and holes in the backfill. The vegetative growth in the <br />immediate area was dense so further inspection can take place once the vegetation dies back. <br />SUPPORT FACILITIES - Rule 4.04: <br />The bridge is the only facility remaining and it was passable. <br />SIGNS AND MARKERS — Rule 4.02: <br />Surface disturbance and stream buffer zone markers were up at the appropriate locations.
