Present <br />during the inspection was Mr. Mark Vanoni of CC&V. <br />Inspected the Phase I,II,III&IV leach pad areas and collected the following readings <br />from the High and Low Volume, solution collection transducers. <br />Phase I High volume solution collection transducer # 1 read out meter still not <br />functioning # 2 was at46.5 and # 3 was at 44.6. Piezometer for the pond was at 47.2. <br />Low volume transducer # 1 was at .34 and # 2 was at.39. <br />Phase II AND III High Volume Solution collection transducer #4 was recorded at 29.3 #5 <br />Was at31.6 #6 was at 26.5. Piezometer for the pond was at 30.6. Low volume #1 readout <br />meter was not functioning and was reading 00 # 2 was at .35. <br />Phase IV High Volume solution collection system transducer # 7 was reading at 28.3 #8 <br />was at 26.4 #9 was at 26.8 and #10 (p ipe) was at 21.9.LOw volume # 1 was at 23.0 and # <br />2 was reading negative 9.9 and pump was cavitationg. CC&V plans to change <br />Inspected the external pond, it was holding some water. Pump malfunctioned and new pump <br />and needed fittings have been ordered and the system is expected to be operational by <br />the end of the month. Since it is a back up system for the solution collection system, <br />in the event there is a need to utilize the pond, due to unforeseen failure in the <br />primary storage ponds, it has to be operational as designed at all times, and because <br />of that it is sited as a possible problem. <br />Inspected the under drain, all lower ponds were dry. Both the south under drain, and 4 <br />inch pipes were discharging at 25 and 9 gpm respectively. The road drainage leading to <br />the under drain had under gone some routine maintenance, and was in good repair. <br />inspected the Cresson mining area, both the main and east Cresson were actively being <br />mined at the time of the inspection. Back filling of the East Cresson mine was also <br />continuing. Haul road storm water diversion structures were in good repair. CC&V plans <br />to clean some of the sumps prior to the winter season according to Mark Vanoni. <br />With Gray Goodrich accompanying the inspection, inspected the old leach pads #3 &4 <br />which are being reclaimed. The last of the ponds, 9,10&ll,liners have been folded and <br />ponds have been covered with overburden. CC&V plans to complete the reclamation by the <br />end of the fall season, weather permitting. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: T!M COMER <br />OPERATOR: CCBV <br />STREET: P_c).ROx 191 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: VICi(~R Cnl nRAn(~ RnRGn <br />cc: r CE <br />r BL <br />r FS, <br />r HW <br />r HMWMD (CH) <br />r <br />r SE <br />r WQCD (CH) <br />r OTHER <br />
