The current <br /> operation of the A&W well and the projections of potentially achievable well yields based <br /> on the June 2018 testing are generally consistent with the verbally communicated well <br /> rating performed by Quality Well and Pump in April of 2014, which is representative of <br /> pre-Holton-Morton Stage 6B Pit mining conditions. <br /> • Water levels should continue to by monitored in the A&W monitoring well by RMCC. <br /> • A monitoring program for the A&W pumping well including the collection of pumping <br /> rates, weekly and monthly production and static and pumping water levels should be <br /> implemented by A&W to observe and document operational conditions for the well. As <br /> an alternative, RMCC may implement the monitoring of the A&W pumping well with <br /> A&W permission. <br /> � � i <br />
