but did go on the inspection. The weather was clear and sunny. The ground conditions were dry.

The truck-loop pond contained water. The banks were well vegetated and appeared to be stable (photo 1).
Many culverts along the haul road were checked. The following culverts were free of debris and appear to be
functioning properly: TAHRC-18, -17, -16, -13, -12, -10, -11, -7, -6, -6A, -5, -5A, -5A, RRC-17-A, -B, -C(photo

The ditch downhill of culvert TAHRC-10 is becoming incised and some rills are forming from the road surface
(photo 3). This was discussed with Mr. Bugay and he will look at the area to determine the necessary corrective
action.
