In addition,the EPP <br /> includes implementation and commitment to appropriate wildlife protective measures <br /> recommended by CPW. <br /> I6.4.21(1)(c)] The EPP <br /> The Russell Gulch Reclamation Project (RGRP)does not include leach facilities, heap leach <br /> pads, tailings storage, tailings disposal areas, impoundments, or a land application site. The <br /> (RGRP)does not include the use of any toxic chemicals, leach facilities, heap leach pads, tailings <br /> storage, tailing darns or ponds, tailings disposal areas, impoundments, or land application sites. <br /> No toxic chemicals of any kind will be used in the reclamation process. There will be no <br /> processing of toxic and/or acid forming materials may, current testing has shown to be benign. <br /> RGRP's objective is to process existing working/legacy piles on this site. <br /> 16.4.21(2)] Maps Exhibits A and E include site development and mill figures. <br /> 16.4.21(3)] Identification of Jurisdictional Agencies <br /> Gilpin County Public Works <br /> Gilpin County Community Development <br /> 16.4.21(4)(a and b)] Other Permits and Licenses <br /> Gilpin County Public Works issued an access/driveway permit. <br /> Gilpin County Community Development Office will require a 1041 special use permit. <br /> Gilpin County Community Development Office will require a road/site grading permit. <br /> 16.4.21(5)] Designated Chemical Evaluation <br /> CRS LLC will provide the appropriate information to support that the existing working/legacy <br /> piles on site to be reclaimed are benign, nontoxic and non-acid generating. <br /> No designated chemicals will be used in processing. The (RGRP)relies on a wet screener for the <br /> feedstock, resulting in a slurry via gravity separation and elimination of dust. The slurry fines <br /> pass through a dewatering screen. The water is tested for pH, balanced as required and continues <br /> on to recirculate. The concentrate is collected in 1-ton super sacks on pallets and prepared for <br /> shipping to the refiner. <br />
