This written notification is follow-up to the verbal <br /> notification that was made to you via voicemail on May 2"d, 2017. <br /> MNGW-1 was sampled during a normally scheduled monitoring event on April 6th, 2017, with a pH value <br /> of 6.4 standard units (s.u.). This exceeded the numeric protection limit (NPL) of 6.5-8.5. As required by <br /> the Groundwater Management plan, a follow-up pH measurement was taken within 30 days on April 18, <br /> 2017, resulting in a pH of 6.3 s.u. <br /> These results do not appear to be anomalous, or obvious outliers. If you have any additional questions or <br /> concerns, please feel free to contact me at 720-942-3518. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> �t v— ,/ <br /> Tim Haynes <br /> Chief Environmental Scientist <br /> Climax Molybdenum Company <br /> Henderson Operation <br /> cc(via email): <br /> M.
