Present during the <br />inspection were Tim Comer, Gary Goodrich and Mark Venoni. The area had received some snow <br />the past week and high speed wind was blowing the snow at the time of the inspection. <br />Prior to the inspection a brief introduction of the new Environmental personnel that CC7V <br />hired from the Jarred Canyon mine, Mr. Mark Venoni who has extensive background in liner <br />installation. Briefly discussed about how to best approach the release from liability of <br />the old Victory pads, which had been in detoxification for the past several years. Both <br />the Division and the operator agreed to conduct joint sampling of the leachate from the <br />ponds for WAD cyanide analysis and some metals on 2/27/07. Water quality data to date <br />meets or exceeds the DRMS standard setfor decommissioning of the leach pads. <br />Inspected the East Cresson it was being actively mined and backfilled at the same time. <br />Fromm the American Eagle look out areailooked at the main Cresson, the South portion of <br />the main Cresson was active. <br />Inspected the old Pad #3 & 4 areas. Sp~lnt ore removal in anticipation of the South Cresson <br />mine extension is continuing. Ponds 6,~7 & 8 waters have been tested and are being <br />utilized as make up water and dust suppression on site. Once all the processed water is <br />utilized liner will be folded and buried. Areas that will not be mined under the current <br />mining plan will be reclaimed. Inspected the load out bin area, excess ore was being <br />removed £rom the traverse area for thetrucks at the time of the inspection. <br />Inspected the Phase I, II, III&IV Lea <br />from the High and Low Volume Solution <br />Phase I High Volume Solution Collecti <br />still not functioning) #2 was at 28.7 <br />40.2 feet. Low Volume solution collec <br />.17. Phase II &III High Volume soluti <br />5 was at 12.3 and # 6 was at 12.2. Pi <br />transducer # 1 was at. and #2 was at2 <br />Phase IV High Volume Solution Collect <br />10.5, #9 was at 10.7 and # 10 was at <br />was at 8.9 inches of hydrostatic head <br />Inspected the External pond, it was h <br />water .Low volume Solution Collection <br /># 2 was at 10.8 inches of hydro stati <br />Inspected the under drain area, both <br />higher GPM, than was observed in Janu <br />past week accounting for the higher f <br />pipes were dry. All lower ponds were <br />frozen water covered with snow as was <br />I & E Contact Address <br />pad areas and collected the following readings <br />ollection Transducers. <br />Transducer #1 was recorded at 7.0 (read out meter <br />nd # 3 was at 27.3 pie zometer for the pond was at <br />on transducer #1 was recorded at0.40 and # 2 was at <br />Collection transducer # 4 was recorded at 12.0 # <br />ometer for the pond was at 29.1 feet.

Low Volume transducer # 1 was at 11.4 and # 2 <br />ding a small amount of what appeared to be frozen <br />ransducer # 1 for the pond was recorded at 12.6 and <br />head. <br />e south and 4 inch pipes were discharging at at <br />y. According to Gray some melting took place the <br />w rate. The north under drain and solid 24 inch <br />lding about the same amount of what appeared to be <br />oted during last months inspection. <br />NAME: TIM COMER I <br />OPERATOR: CC&V ~ <br />STREET: P C).RnX 191 <br />cc: T CE <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: vlcme ~rn ~aAn~ HnR~n r BL <br />r FS <br />
