This concluded the inspection. <br />PERMIT #: M -1994 -121 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS: MAC <br />INSPECTION DATE: August 12, 2011 <br />overburden material was placed approximately 500 from the top of the catchment area, which drains the east <br />side of the ridge where the Vasquez Quarry No. 2 is located. The fill material is approximately 250 feet in <br />length and 15 feet in height (at the center). There are no houses or permanent man -made structures located <br />above the overburden fill which may be impacted by the impoundment of stormwater. Further, there was <br />little physical evidence to suggest that stormwater is being impounded behind the overburden fill. Stormwater <br />is likely impounded behind the overburden fill for a short period of time until it can percolate through the <br />sandstone rubble. Based on the observations made during the inspection, the Division believes this operation <br />is currently in compliance with Rule 3.1.6 which requires disturbances to the prevailing hydrologic balance of <br />the affected land and of the surrounding area be minimized. As noted in this report, the Operator will be <br />responsible for updating the Mining and Reclamation Plans to address how the overburden will be handled <br />and the associated disturbance reclaimed. <br />Page 3 of 5 <br />
