discharge) and at upstream and downstream locations on Hay Gulch Ditch. <br />(4.05.13 (2)): <br />H. Transfer of Wells <br />There are no wells proposed to be transferred. <br />I. Discharge of Water into an Underground Mine <br />The permittee does not propose to discharge water into the underground workings. <br />J. Stream Buffer Zones <br />There are no surface disturbances proposed with this permit revision. No stream <br />buffer zone delineation is necessary. <br />K. Probable Hydrologic Consequences <br />The probable hydrologic consequence is described in the permit application <br />package and is described here with respect to the entire permit, not just specific to <br />PR10 parcels: <br />Ground Water Effects <br />The ground water -bearing units having the greatest potential to be affected by <br />mining at the King I and 11 Mines are the Hay Gulch alluvium, the Cliff <br />House Sandstone, and the Menefee formation. (GCC has stated that the <br />Point Lookout Sandstone is well beyond the area of influence of the mines <br />because it is approximately 250 feet stratigraphically below the workings. <br />Monitoring data show no impacts from mining at the King I and 11 Mines.). <br />Hay Gulch Alluvium - The Hay Gulch alluvium has been monitored in the <br />Wiltse well, downstream from the west sediment pond at the King I Mine. <br />GCC also monitors alluvial water quality in a well down -gradient of King II. <br />Monitoring data indicate no significant mining impacts to this unit. <br />Cliff House Sandstone - It appears unlikely that the King I and 11 Mines will <br />fill with water after mining is finished. With the exception of one inflow <br />event, the mine workings of the King I Mine have been dry. Both mines <br />appear to underlie the updip, unsaturated portion of the Cliff House <br />Sandstone. Impermeable shale and siltstone of the Menefee formation <br />underlie the workings, and also are unlikely inflow sources for the workings. <br />If the King I Mine or King 1I Mine workings were to eventually fill with water, <br />it seems unlikely the water could be transmitted from the workings to the Cliff <br />13 <br />
