Shuey, Reclamation Specialist ~~n: p ^/N, <br />rrnc 'C~ P~~ <br />RE: Bulldog Mine Reclamation Proiect May, 1999 Monthly Monitoring RepoJrt /oor`~J <br />Dear Mr. Shuey: <br />Pursuant to the Technical Revisions to the Reclamation Permit for the Bulldog Reclamation Project, this is the <br />eighteenth monthly report pertaining to 11 installation and operation of an infiltration trench to accommodate <br />seepage from the 9360 adit, and 21 closing the valve at the 9360 adit plug. The Division of Minerals and <br />Geology IDMGI, in a letter dated March 8, 1999, issued a conditional approval for Homestake Mining <br />Company (HMC) to close the valve at the 9360 adit plug. Subsequent to DMG's approval, HMC closed the <br />valve to the adit plug on April 1, 1999. By closing the valve at the adit plug, HMC is committed to the <br />monthly monitoring summarized below in accordance with the approved Technical Revisions. <br />Since closure of the adit plug valve on April 1, 1999, no flow has or is being directed into the infiltration <br />trench. Therefore, as noted in Table 1, the infiltration trench and vadose zone monitoring have been <br />discontinued. <br />The revised monitoring program was initiated in April 1999 as described in the April 1999 monthly <br />monitoring report. Summaries of the monthly monitoring data are presented in Tables 1 and 2, and Figure 1 <br />attached. Based on the required visual inspection around the adit plug, the plug is impounding water behind <br />it with no signs of seepage and/or development of seeps around the portal area. No flow was observed in <br />DT-1 and DT-2 during the monthly sampling activities. <br />As part of this monthly report and in accordance with the 9360 Level Adit Closure Monitoring Plan, dated <br />April 1998, Windy Gulch monitoring was continued during this period. Flow was observed through the WGL <br />Weir during this period and a water quality sample (WGL Weir) taken on May 10, 1999. Analytical data for <br />this sample are attached. The estimated flow through the weir at the time of sampling was approximately <br />940 gpm. Continuous flow monitoring at the WGL Weir was initiated in April 1999. Figure 2 summarizes <br />the flow through the weir to date. <br />Thank you for your time and attention on this matter. If you have any questions, please contact me in the <br />San Francisco office. <br />Veryery Tru <br />cc: R. Callan, Grants <br />F. Martinez, Alamosa BLM <br />D.
