The simple method to check the integrity of the line would be to open the <br />cut out valve below the pond once there ie water in the pond. The Division will conduct this <br />check during a Bite inspection during September, 1995. The operator moat assure that the key <br />to the locking decant line valve box is available during the next site inspection. For the <br />present, the decant line valves must remain closed. These valves may not be opened, except <br />in the event of imminent dam over-topping, without Division approval. Approval to open the <br />valves would be predicated on a successful demonstration of decant line integrity, <br />establishment of adequate freeboard behind the Hazel-A bulkhead, and installation of a <br />functional collection and pump-back system outby of the Hazel-A bulkhead. <br />Hazel-A Slimes <br />Since, in the Division's view, the results of the whole rock analysis of a Haze'_-A slimes <br />sample collected 7/19/95 were inconclusive, another sample was collected during this <br />inspection. The operator was provided a split of this sample. The Division's sample is <br />being processed by ACTLab. The lab will provide a polished thin section of the elimee for <br />petrographic analysis. Such analysis should be definitive as to whether the Hazel-A elimee <br />are tailing or some naturally derived material. The elides should be back from the lab by <br />the middle of September. <br />cc: Carl Mount, DMG <br />Gwen Fraser <br />Colina Oro Holino, Inc. <br />P.O.
