post mine topography.
For Transect 4,the elevation measured in the field was found to be about 12.894 feet lower on average than the
approved post mine topography. This difference may be a result of the accuracy of the GPS unit in collecting
elevation. This graded area blends in well with the surrounding topography. The cross section created from the
elevation points collected in the field is very similar in slope and grade to the corresponding cross section created
from the approved post mine topography. Overall, it appears the Operator has graded this area in accordance with
the approved post mine topography.
The topsoil stockpile "XX"area was walked,this area has dense perennial grass cover established and blends into
the surrounding area. The Division collected elevations points along a transect within this area during the May 14,
2013 inspection. Please see that inspection report for details.
The 9.4 acre pit ramp slide area was observed during this inspection. The required trench drains have been
constructed and they appear to be stable. There is a slight toe bulge that appears to have been graded. The head
scarp is lightly graded. Vegetation has established throughout this area. The Division collected elevation points
along a transect within this area during the May 14, 2013 inspection. Please see that inspection report for details.
