Saletta <br />Department of Natural Resources <br />Mined Land Reclamation Division <br />423 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />Re: Bulldog Mine Inspection Report <br />Dear Mr. Saletta: <br />In response to your Bulldog Mine Inspection Report dated August 2, <br />1985, the following activities were undertaken by Homestake Mining <br />Company: <br />1. Chemical barrels in the chemical storage area west of the mill <br />building have been properly stored. The barrels have been placed on <br />an elevated platform to avoid possible contact with surface water run- <br />off. This activity was completed by August 30, 1985. <br />2. The forthcoming permit amendment will include a discussion on <br />chemical storage and barrel disposal, and a description of the mine <br />refuse and trash disposal plan. It is anticipated that the amendment <br />will be submitted within the next two to three months. The Division <br />will be advised when Homestake determines the actual submittal date <br />in order to provide adequate lead time. In the interim, the North <br />Amethyst Project (Equity) ongoing exploration activities are adequately <br />covered by the Prospecting Notice of Intent on file with the Division. <br />3. All drainage control ditches and berms at the mine, millsite and <br />tailings impoundment were inspected, and maintained as necessary. <br />The drainage control ditch on the east side of the tailings dam was <br />regraded to assure adequate upland diversion. Construction of the <br />Windy Gulch culvert diversion has been completed. These activities <br />were completed by August 30, 1985. <br />1726 COLE BOULEVARD • GOLDEN, COLORADO 80601 • 1303)2770700 <br />
