FINDING OF VIOLATION <br /> During the May, 1984 Inspection, Jim Herron, of the Mined Land <br /> Reclamation Division, observed three areas (i .e. , the valley directly <br /> east of Mine No. 1 , the Mine No. 1 and 2 sediment pond site, and the <br /> Arctic Circle pond site) where non-coal waste had been improperly <br /> disposed. Oral testimony, slides, and photographs, presented during <br /> the hearing indicate that the violation was justified. I recommend <br /> that NOV 84-093 be upheld. <br /> II . PENALTY ASSESSMENT <br /> A. History: <br /> Based on the fact that one violation was issued against <br /> Mid-Continent Coal Resources within the 12 months prior to this <br /> NOV, an assessment of $50.00 is recommended. <br /> B. Seriousness: <br /> I recommend that the rationale and proposed assessment for <br /> seriousness remain unchanged. An assessment for seriousness in the <br /> amount of $225.00 was proposed. <br /> C. Fault: <br /> I recommend that the rationale and proposed assessment for fault <br /> remain unchanged. An assessment for fault of $250.00 was proposed. <br /> 423 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203 Tel. (303) 866-3567 <br />
