V ` • • <br />R1r. Scott Patten <br />April 5, 191;7 <br />Page -2- <br />4J The map of yround water mon..itoring sites has bee.a provided. <br />This map does not include the location of the Parshall flume or <br />flow staff yauge, however. Additionally, it will require certifi.%~ation. <br />5J Flatiron needs to provide a discussion of pas;..ind future <br />rrbnitoring procedures as outlined in she March I8, ]982 memo. <br />D. xydrologic Impacts <br />1J FZatiron needs to provide a statement of orohab.le hydrologic, <br />consequence for the mine addressiny all real and potential cftesCs <br />the mining and reclamation opera Lion will have on the water required <br />at the mine site and surrounding areas. 13ob Liddle discussed the <br />requirements for this section in detail. The statement should include <br />but not be limited to a discussion of diminution of r.~ater to downsCrean~ <br />users, whether impacts are significant, the duratie,r of impacts,ornl ho,/ <br />the mining operation is mitigating these impacts. <br />2J Bob Liddle discussed several proposed stipulations. These stipulations <br />may be eliminated by addressing them in the applica t.:on. Sti pula Ci ons <br />included: Che placement of staff gauges showing "%; sediment vcla~mo "in <br />all sediment ponds, a plan to adr)ress the gate prohi c;n in pond TI r: hi ch <br />will meet the requirement of the State Engineers Office and Ch1hRD, and <br />the certification that all sedim~.nt ponds are built as designed by a <br />qualified certified P.E. <br />E. Topsoil <br />1J Flatiron stated that actual ~edon descriptions i.ere not <br />available. <br />2J Scott Patten explained the relationship between the soils information <br />in the tables and on the soils man. <br />3J So11 stripping depths were d~=.termined by Carol 2>a hlke in the rC Vi e~w <br />of the interim permit. <br />4J Several concerns have surfaced a to the adequacy of the soil <br />nuppi.ng, particularly in the area; whcro saline anrlf~" sodi.c soi)•~ <br />appear. The Division is requiring/ I'Iatiron to resrm•i,lr sni1,5 on ~h~• <br />mine site to further characteri z~• suitable soils 1"or reel arra ti on, -~nr1 <br />unsuitable soils. This will req,ire remappiny, resampling by sni.1 <br />horizons in increments not to exceed 12", and analyze;:, for pli, :dAR, <br />EC, and texture. Soil samples tmm existing stoc{: r~ Lc. ; ;~~i11 be c~•~luired, <br />additionally. Flatiron requested that the Division determine the p L~ce- <br />ment of soil sampling Locations. The Division is ~:illing to do this; <br />however, it was pointed out that the choice of ~.rampling locations ;hnuid <br />be done by the company in cons ul b,tinn wi.Ch the Div i::i on. <br />
