Waldron <br />Division of Minerals and Geology <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />RE: Somerset Mining Company <br />H-10 and Springs 1-6 April Monitoring <br />Permit No. C-81-022 <br />Dear Mr. Waldron: <br />On April 6, 1995, in accordance with the Division's monitoring <br />requirements, I completed measurements of field parameters in <br />groundwater monitoring well H-10. Monitoring required the use of <br />a borrowed, personal all terrain vehicle. <br />The following day, April 7, I attempted to monitor Springs 1-7 in <br />the Coal Gulch Trail area with the ATV. Spring 7 is required to be <br />monitored monthly, and is accessed in the winter months on foot. <br />Springs 1-6 are required to be monitored monthly from April to <br />October, recognizing the fact that the Coal Gulch Trail area in <br />inaccessible during the winter months. <br />I was able to monitor Spring 7. The lower portions of the Coal <br />Gulch Trail were covered with rockfall debris, but there did not <br />appear to be evidence of mass movement in the landslide area. Snow <br />was encountered at approximately the 7,000-foot elevation. Water <br />was running down and across the Coal Gulch Trail, creating muddy <br />and difficult travel conditions. At approximately the 8,000-foot <br />elevation, before the turn-off to Spring 1, the snow was of a depth <br />to be impassable with the ATV. Spring 1-6 were not monitored on <br />April 7. <br />Please call if there are any questions. <br />~ ~ <br />Thomas C. Anderson, P.E. <br />Environmental Coordinator <br />cc: J.E.
