This mine has closed and reclamation of most areas is complete. <br />The weather was hot and the ground was soft and muddy in places due to recent rains. <br />Hydrolooic Balance <br />For the first time in the last few years, pond 5 held a small amount of water. Recent and <br />reoccurring storm events have resulted in storm water runoff from the main reclaimed facility <br />area that drains to pond 5. However, the pond water level remains some 6-B feet below the <br />top of the riser, indicating significant capacity for future storm runoff. However, even with this <br />evidence of significant rainfall and some subsequent storm runoff to pond 5, pond 4 remains <br />effectively dry. <br />? _1• r ~~.. _. <br />r ~• <br />~ ~ ~ a , <br />~ ~ ~ i 1: ~. f ..r <br />~' •,~.- . <br />~. ~~ <br />.~ we <br />~ ~ ` - <br />ICY l '~ 1 <br />i ~ ' <br />\Ib •~~ r r <br />5~ : ~ 't .~> ~ .• e ~ yr . ~ 'f , <br />~"~ J ~r ~ Y.'. t ~' ~,'c~'r tel.. t-)~ --• .. •-' vMv ~ *'?''. <br />~ ~ <br />3 <br />
