Present <br />during the inspection were Mark Tidquist and Phil Barnes of CC&V. <br />Inspected the Phase III area storm water diversion around the leach pad, it should be completed by the <br />end of the month, once the highway relocation work is completed. <br />Inspected the Phase II area pregnant solution collection system and recorded the following readings from <br />the high and low volume solution collection transducers. <br />Low volume transducer #1 was recorded at .il and # 2 was at .21 <br />High volume transducer # 4 was recorded at 19.8. # 5 was at 22.5 and # 6 was at 25.5 (all measurements <br />are in hydrostatic feet of head) <br />Inspected the underdrain area, all three discharge pipes were discharging, no samples collected. The water <br />from the North underdrain pipe was being pumped in to the external pond to be utilized as make up water <br />for the leach pad facility. Mr Barnes stated that CC&V had the rights to the water, and that all the water <br />used in the facility is properly recorded. He was informed that the Division had sent the previous <br />inspections reports to the State Engineer and CDO~ 8:E, which indicated the diversion of the underdrain <br />water in to the external pond. <br />Highway relocation bridgework was continuing, no major problem noted in the area. <br />Inspected the external pond, it was holding a lot of water. As stated earlier, water was being pumped from <br />the North underdrain into the pond. At the same time, water was being pumped out from the low volume <br />solution collection system to make sure the allowable hydrostatic head is not exceeded. <br />Inspected the Phase I pregnant solution wlledion area and recorded the following readings from the high <br />volume solution collection transducers. Transducer # 1 was not functioning, at the time of the inspection, # <br />2 were recorded at 16.0 and # 2 was recorded at 23.8. Feet of head. According to Roger ]ohnson, process <br />manger, they plan to pull the # 1 transducer and put a replacement as soon as possible. Since in addition to <br />the transducers the operator had placed a piezometer, the fact that the #1 transducer not functioning does <br />not hinder the Division from obtaining the hydrostatic head data for the pond. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: Mr. Scott Lewis <br />OPERATOR: CC&V <br />STREET: P.O.BOX 191 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: VICTOR CO ROR60 <br />JAMES STEVENS <br />cc: ^ CE <br />^ BL <br />^ FS <br />^ HW <br />^ HMWMD (CH) <br />^ SE <br />^ WQCD (CH) <br />^ OTHER <br />
