The Division's goal is to prevent mill discharge solution from <br /> ponding on the surface of the AGVLF.

When <br /> the water levels get to within 10 feet of the surface CC&V staff will clean out the wells. <br /> Comment 2: Monitoring and Closure <br /> a. The second sentence in the second paragraph on the last page of the TR-79mrequest <br /> letter has three conditions,following an "if' condition. Please confirm the "if' <br /> condition is limited to the mill continuing to operate after the AGVLF is closed, in <br /> which case, new wells would be installed on the SG VLF and the pipeline rerouted, <br /> w <br />
