NEWMONT <br /> GOLDCORA <br /> 16 WILDLIFE PROTECTION <br /> A description of the measures to protect wildlife from coming into contact with designated <br /> chemicals is provided in Exhibit H as well as in the Wildlife Protection Plan included as <br /> Appendix 8. The designated chemicals principally are contained in the internal PSSAs at the <br /> VLFs, in the ADR facilities, in the HG Mill facility, and the PSES. New chemicals are not <br /> anticipated over what was approved in prior permit amendments. <br /> The leach tanks and thickener for solutions from the CIP process are located exterior to the HG <br /> Mill building and consist of open-top tanks. As of the submittal of this amendment application, the <br /> leach tanks are not currently being used in their original designed capacity, rather, as of TR-109, <br /> the tanks are used as additional capacity for the process ore thickener tanks. If the mill processes <br /> require, the tanks may be used for their originally designed, permitted and approved function. The <br /> Process Solution Enhancement System (PSES) has three open-top tanks containing leach pad <br /> solution. If necessary, bird mitigation measures will be implemented such as netting or bird balls <br /> although, past experience with dilute sodium cyanide solution leach tanks has shown that birds <br /> do not tend to use these as a water source due to the small open area of each tank, the noise <br /> associated with the agitation, and the level of activity of the milling operations. <br /> Cripple Creek&Victor Gold Mining Company Exhibit U <br /> Cresson Project Amendment 13 <br /> 24 <br />
