Present during the <br />inspection were Tim Comer and Gary Goodrich. The area had received a considerable amount <br />of rain the past week, which was evident through out the permit area. According to Mr. <br />Goodrich, at present the total PPT. Is about 200 above normal? <br />Inspected the Cresson pit Ares. The main and East Cresson were active, storm water <br />diversion structures in the area were found to be in good repair. Even with the. above <br />normal rain fall the area received to date, all the structures appeared to have functioned <br />as designed. Those sumps that received additional sediment were being mucked out in <br />anticipation of the rainy season for the area, which is usually from June thru the end of <br />September. Backfilling of the East Cresson pit is continuing. No problem noted. <br />Inspected the old Pad #3 & 4 areas. Spent ore removal in anticipation of the mine <br />extension is continuing. Ponds 9, 10 &11 were being drained, once all the water is drained <br />liner will be folded and buried and backfilled, and reclamation to commence soon after <br />that. <br />Inspected the Phase I, II, II&IV Leach pad areas and collected the following readings from <br />the High and LOw Volume SOlutiOri Collection Transducers. <br />Phase I High Volume Solution Collection Transducer #1 was recorded at 7.0 (read out meter <br />still not functioning) #2 was at 26.7 and # 3 was at 26.6 piezometer for the pond was at <br />56.7 feet. Low Volume solution collection transducer #1 was recorded at .29 and # 2 was at <br />.25. Phase II &III High Volume solution Collection transducer # 4 was recorded at 27.2 # <br />5 was at 24.6 and # 6 was at 27.6. Piezometer for the pond was at 29.1 feet. Low volume <br />transducer # 1 was at.14 and #2 was at.36. ' <br />Phase IV High Volume Solution Collection Transducer # 7 was recorded at 41.6, #8 was at. <br />41.8, #9 was at 42.2 and # 10 was at 42.5. Low Volume transducer # 1 was at 10.1 and # 2 <br />was at 4.4 inches of hydrostatic head. A small area above (west) of the low volume <br />transducer read out location on the lined area had some ponded water from the recent <br />storm. This area had similar problems in the past & CC& it will not pond. However during <br />the recent storm, the area was unable to handle the drainage from the pad and ponded water <br />was noted. CC&V PLANS to drain the water and come up with a workable diversion plan, so <br />this area will not pond in the future. Inspected the Iron Clad Globe Hill area, looked at <br />the area where a new Engineering and Geology staff office building will be constructed. <br />The draft copy of the building which will be submitted as a TR will be provided to DRMS as <br />soon as possible. All the ponds for the Victor mine pads were holding a lot of water, all <br />was below discharge level. <br />Inspected the External pond, it was holding more water than last report. Low volume <br />Solution Collection transducer # 1 for the pond was recorded at 10.4 and # 2 was at 12.8 <br />inches of hydro static head. <br />Inspected the under drain area, both the south and 4 inch pipes were discharging at much <br />higher volume than last inspection. The north under drain and solid 24 inch pipes were <br />dry. The lower pond next to the pump back station was holding water. All the other ponds <br />were dry. The diversion sump dissipation ponds were holding water indication of the recent <br />ppt. event in the area. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: TIM COMER <br />OPERATOR: CC&V <br />STREET: P_(~ ROX 191 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: vicme c~i nRAn~ an>i~n cc: r CE <br />
