GENERAL <br /> The winter of 1994/1995 was characterized by relatively mild <br /> conditions. Significant snowfall occurred late in the season, with <br /> large accumulations occurring in March and April, 1995. Snow <br /> continued to fall at the Mine entry elevations through mid-June. <br /> The spring was cold and wet, to the point that the snowmelt runoff <br /> was significantly delayed. Coal and Dutch Creeks did not appear to <br /> crest until mid-June, which is two to three weeks later than the <br /> reported normal peak. Higher elevation snow pack was persistent at <br /> the mine entry elevations until mid-July. The sustained snow pack <br /> led to continued higher than normal water in the creeks, and caused <br /> a delay in project initiation at Mines 3 and 4 . The snow pack at <br /> Mine 3 during the pre-bid site showing may have negatively impacted <br /> the bid amounts for this project. <br /> Climatic conditions improved substantially after mid-July. The <br /> remainder of the summer was dry and warm. The majority of the <br /> reclamation work at the site was accomplished during the period of <br /> August 1 to October 1. No weather delays were experienced by the <br /> reclamation contractors until September 18. <br /> The fall was characterized by a long and relatively warm indian <br /> summer. Intermittent snow storms periodically interrupted work at <br /> the site. However, the majority of the reclamation work had been <br /> accomplished, and only maintenance and field data collection <br /> efforts were impacted by fall snows. After October 31, the mine <br /> entry areas were generally inaccessible due to snow accumulations. <br /> SPRING AND EARLY SUMMER (PRE-CONSTRUCTION) <br /> The field season began on April 3 , 1995, which was when the site <br /> was first visited in 1995. The area was accessed via skis from <br /> Redstone, as significant snow pack was still present at the time. <br /> Following this visit, arrangements were made with the Colorado <br /> Department of Transportation to plow open the access road from <br /> Redstone to the mine gate. A telephone bid (Spring Maintenance <br /> Bid) was published in late April and awarded in May for the purpose <br /> of having equipment and operators available on short notice during <br /> spring run off. This was deemed necessary so that stream crossings <br /> and the road drainage systems remained functional during the <br /> anticipated heavy run off. Other activities contemplated in the <br /> bid included installation of temporary sediment control measures <br /> and a limited amount of snow removal. <br /> Resources had not performed sediment pond maintenance in quite some <br /> time. The ponds from the Rock Tunnel down to the east side of the <br /> Old Refuse Pile were somewhat suspect in that these areas had seen <br /> heavy use over the past three years due to the on-going demolition <br /> activities.
