Deb Zufelt at Green Analytical states: <br />"EPA200.7 can be either dissolved, potentially dissolved or Total Recoverable <br />Your metals are filtered, so the results are reported as dissolved." <br />At this time, GCC Energy requests that the #I Upgradient Monitoring Well and the #3 <br />Hay Gulch Ditch no longer be sampled until 2 years prior to final reclamation of the <br />King II mine site. These points were sampled only to gather baseline data prior to <br />construction of the King II site and no longer provide any useful information. There is <br />no language in the permit text requiring that these sites be sampled. <br />This report will now be based on a "water year" defined as October 1 through <br />September 30 and will now be submitted before December 31 of the same year. A <br />minor revision will be submitted modifying the permit text to clarify these dates. <br />Please contact Tom Bird at 970.385.4528 x 6503 with questions or comments. <br />Sincerely, <br />Tom Bird <br />Manager of Coal Services <br />GCC Energy, LLC <br />
