2.05.3 <br />During late 2008 a dewatering well approved through TR -53 was installed in the <br />D -Seam near the Mouth of Dove Gulch. Water from the well was piped to the <br />active B -Seam workings through the nearby ventilation shaft. A pump powered <br />by a diesel generator was installed in the well. A six inch diameter water line was <br />installed from the dewatering well to and into the shaft. The 1,000 foot long <br />water line was buried along the inside edge of Hubbard Creek road. <br />Technical revision no. 52 provided for the installation of thirteen gob vent holes <br />over the next three years (2008 through 2011). MR -106 amended the holes <br />approved through TR -52 and added four additional holes. Since the northeast <br />mining district was essentially abandoned during 2009, only nine of the <br />seventeen the holes were drilled. <br />MR -92 provided for drilling GVB-8A-A during 2008. MR -100 provided for drilling <br />GVB-8A-B during 2009. Both holes are located on an existing drill pad located <br />near the mouth of Dove Gulch. <br />MR -105 provided for an additional gob vent hole GVB-8-TG that was installed <br />during 2009 from a new drill pad located at the mouth of Dove Gulch. <br />TR -65 provides for a geotechnical hole to be drilled at a proposed shaft site in <br />Terror Creek. This hole will not likely be installed because the proposed shaft in <br />Terror Creek is to be moved to a more favorable location. <br />MR -115 provides for the drilling of up to three geotechnical holes along Terror <br />Creek to select a site for a proposed shaft. <br />The eleven geotechnical holes approved through MR -88 were deleted from the <br />permit by TR -96. <br />The expansion of the permit boundary to the west encompassed three drill holes <br />that were approved through Bowie No. 1 mine technical revisions. Bowe -1 TR -41 <br />approved BRL-1-03-01 which was drilled in 2004. Bowie -1 TR -49 approved <br />BRI -1-08-03 and BRL1-08-04. BRL1-08-04 was drilled in 2008. BRL-1-08-03 <br />was deleted by TR -96. Bowie -1, MR -125 approved GVB B10A and B10B were <br />drilled in 2010. <br />Bowie -2 MR -123 approved six gob vent holes to be drilled in 2011. They are <br />GVB-B11A, B11B, B12A, B12B, B12C & B13A. MR -124 approved two additional <br />holes to be drilled in 2011. They are GVB-B11C and B12D. GVB-B12A, B12B, <br />B1 2C & B1 3A were drilled in 2012. <br />Bowie -2 TR -73 approved ten gob vent holes and three exploration holes. They <br />are GVB-B12E, GVB-B13B, GVB-B13C, GVB-B13D,GVB-B13E, GVB-B14A, <br />GVB-B14B, GVB-B14C, GVB-B14D, GVB-B14E, SS-6,SS-7 and 2012-1. GVB- <br />B12E, GVB-B13B, GVB-B13C, GVB-B13D,GVB-B13E, GVB-B14A, SS -7 and <br />2012-1 were drilled in 2012. The remaining holes were drilled in 2013. <br />TR -96 2.05-48- 11/14 <br />
