NEWMONT <br />GOLDCORP <br />7 SUPPORT FACILITIES <br />Existing support facilities are shown on Drawing C-2 and proposed facilities and utilities are shown <br />on Drawings C-3 and C-4. <br />7.1 New _or_Upgraded Ancillary Buildings and Structures <br />No new structures are anticipated with construction of VLF2 Phase 3. <br />7.2 Power Supply <br />Electrical power to the Cresson Project is supplied by Black Hills Energy. Black Hills Energy has <br />furnished power lines to its substation located south of SH 67 near the Carlton Security Access. <br />The location of powerlines is shown on Drawing C-3. Note that actual locations may vary from <br />those shown due to site-specific conditions and field constraints encountered during construction <br />and installation of the powerlines. <br />Emergency diesel -powered generators are available to supply the needed electrical power for the <br />pump systems at the ADR1, VLF1, ADR2 and VLF2 in the event of line power outages. Adequate <br />emergency power is available through a total of 12 emergency diesel generators. In effect, this <br />reduces the possibility that there would be the 12 -hour drain down period used in the design of <br />the PSSAs. Seven emergency generators are located at the ADR1/VLF1, four emergency <br />generators are located at the ADR2, and one emergency generator is located at the HG Mill <br />facility. <br />7.3 Water Supply <br />Water is used in the ore beneficiation circuit, for suppression of fugitive dust, drilling, laboratory, <br />sanitary facilities, and for various miscellaneous uses such as vehicle washing and applying <br />hydro -mulch during reclamation activities. The primary use of water is in the VLF/ADR facilities <br />and HG Mill facilities. No significant changes to water supply are anticipated for the activities <br />associated with Amendment 13. <br />Currently, fresh water for on-site use is purchased from various sources based on contractual <br />arrangements with municipal water supplies. Water is pumped from the City of Victor's Altman <br />Pump Station (located on Beaver Creek), or by gravity from a surface reservoir system located <br />further upstream. The agreement with the City of Victor is described in Exhibit G. A back-up water <br />supply has been arranged via agreements with the City of Cripple Creek and Colorado Springs <br />Utilities, Pisgah Reservoir, and City of Pueblo. Water supply information is described in Exhibit <br />G. Copies of water supply agreements also are included in Appendix 4. Drinking water on site is <br />supplied by bottled water. <br />Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company <br />Cresson Project Amendment 13 <br />23 <br />Exhibit D <br />
