Section 779.13 (a) Continued. <br />• or confounding effects from other existing mining areas, speci- <br />fically, the Edna Mine on Trout Creek approximately seven miles <br />upstream of the confluence of Fish Creek and Trout Creek. See 44 <br />Fed. Reg. 15009 (March 13, 1979). The "general area", "adjacent <br />area" and "proposed mine plan area" with respect to both surface <br />water and ground water are all delineated on the Twentymile Park <br />Hydrology (Map 6). <br />(b) (1) Information on hydrology, water quality and quantity, and <br />geology related to hydrology of areas outside the proposed mine plan <br />area and within the general area shall be provided by the regulatory <br />authority, to the extent that this data is available from an appropriate <br />Federal or State agency. <br /> (2) If this information is not available from those agencies, the <br /> applicant may gather and submit this information to the regulatory <br />• authority as part of the permit application. <br />(3) The permit shall not be approved by the regulatory authority until <br />this information is made available in the application. <br />All information required in 779.13(b)(1) for permit approval <br />accompanies this permit application. This information is presented <br />in this Section 770.13 and Sections in 779.14, 779.15, 779.16, and <br />779.17. <br />(c) The use of modeling techniques may be included as part of the <br />permit application, but the same surface and ground water information <br />may be required for each site as when models are not used. <br />The mine plan area is divided into three representative areas of <br />data collection: Eckman Park (undisturbed baseline), Mine No. 1 <br />(currently being mined) and Mine No. 2 (previously mined, under- <br />. going reclamation). The cumulative effects of mining can be pro- <br />jected by extrapolating data from one area to another if similar <br />779-10 <br />
