previously mined the Q and R seams and the I and I1 seams. H pit mined the G seam. The 3rd <br />White Sandstone (G coal and sandstone below) and 2nd White Sandstone (F coal and sandstone <br />below) are monitored at four locations. The Lewis Shale is monitored at one location. The Johnson <br />and Pyeatt Gulch alluvial aquifers are monitored at one site in each of these drainages while the <br />Flume Gulch alluvium is monitored at three locations. The 2014 hydrologic monitoring report, <br />Hydro -Engineering, LLC (2015), presents the discussion of the monitoring results through 2014. The <br />table on the pull-out index provides basic well data for all wells monitored in 2015. Wells 81-03A, <br />GE -1, GE -2, GE -3, GLUX-1 and GP -6 were not required to be monitored after the first half of 2006. <br />Monitoring of wells GLEV-1, GLEV-2 and GLEV-3 which are located on the east side of the <br />Trapper mine were started in 2015. <br />Springs at Trapper Mine were monitored during 2015 in accordance with the approved <br />monitoring plan. Springs with measured flows of greater than 5 gpm were sampled for full suite <br />water quality parameters. Results of the 2015 spring monitoring are presented in Table B-2 in <br />Appendix B. <br />Table 1-1 (page 1-5) presents the pit and well dewatering data and volume of water used <br />for dust suppression for Trapper Mine for 2015. This data shows that water was pumped from the K <br />and L Trapper Mine pits during 2015. Well dewatering was started in September of 2002 in the G <br />pit. The average well pumping rate for 2015 was 31.5 gpm for the G pit well dewatering. This data <br />is useful in interpreting water -level changes and consumptive use. <br />Surface -water flow and quality were monitored at Flume Gulch (S-1), Johnson, No Name, <br />Ute, Middle Pyeatt, East Pyeatt, Oak, Horse, West Flume, Middle Flume, East Middle Flume, Deal <br />Gulch, East Flume and West Horse Gulch drainages during 2015.
