1 <br />SOMERSET MINING COMPANY <br />SEDIMENT POND A CERTIFICATION <br />In accordance with Rule 4.05.6(10), each sediment pond will be <br />inspected during construction under the supervision of, and <br />certified after construction by, a qualified registered <br />professional engineer. This certification is for the construction <br />of Sediment Pond A at the Somerset Mine which was constructed <br />during October and November of 1992 and completed on December 3, <br />1992 with the installation of the dewatering pipe. <br />The construction of pond A was actually and enlargement of existing <br />sediment pond 12. The construction of the pond was supervised by <br />L. x. Jewkes, an EIT and_Colorado School of Mines graduate, who <br />works under my supervision. Mr. Jewkes has a wide variety of <br />experience in the construction industry. <br />Pond A is near the entrance to the Somerset Mine just west of the <br />silo along the railroad tracks, east of the main entrance to the <br />mine site. This pond is a dugout type pond, therefore it does not <br />have true compacted embankments. The design of pond A is shown on <br />drawing 5-040, dated 01-30-92. The design calculations for pond A <br />are contained in Appendix B page B-102. The pond was constructed in <br />accordance with the approved plan except all of the design <br />elevations of the pond shown on drawing 5-039 were reduced one <br />foot. It was necessary to lower the pond one foot so it would <br />"fit" the exiting ground surface. The design capacity of Pond A is <br />as follows: <br />POND A CAPACITY - ACRE FEET <br />Water Sediment Total <br />0.077 0.016 0.093 <br /> ~~Qp RED/S•. <br />P <br /> <br />~ ~~Q, <br />~,....... lF• <br /><~.'cS E.
