No <br />new outfaiis were constructed during the two quarters reported. <br />No discharge was noted during the 4th quarter of 2002 or the first quarter 2003 due to the lingering <br />regional drought gripping the area. Previous review of the 3rd quarter 2002 DMR's for the site resulted in <br />the following comment. <br />Please refer to Table 11-1 of the NPDES permit amendment for permit revision no. 1 (PR-Ol) for the <br />Lorencito Canyon mine. This amendment can be found in Exhibit 21 of the permit application. <br />Specifically refer to outfalls 001A through 009A. Please contact the Water Quality Control Division and <br />request correcfion of this table as follows; <br />1. Receiving water for ouHalls 002, 003, and 005 are Cow Canyon, not Jeff Canyon. <br />2. Receiving water for outfalls 008 and 009 are the Purgatoire River. <br />3. The location for outfall 009 is not fill 9. Please change the location as necessary. <br />Please ensure that the above noted discrepancies are addressed through the Water Quality Control <br />Division and copy the DMG on any associated correspondence. <br />We have no further questions at this time. Thank you for your diligence in pursuing your monitoring and <br />reporting as required. <br />Sinter y, <br />K A.
