TRRPPER MINING INC TEL~303-824-4632 Rpr 23 96 10 27 No .001 P.02 <br />Mr. Joe Dudash, CDMG <br />Re: Trapper Mine Repair Plan and <br />Schedule for Grouse Ponds Spillways <br />4/23/96, page 2 <br />At the Grouse #1 outfall, the combination of higher than normal peak flow, inadequately <br />developed vegetation and a relatively steep spillway outfall wmbined to compromise the <br />erosion control at the spot where gullying occurred. <br />REPAIR PLAN AND SCHEDULE <br />Trapper will make every reasonable effort to have the erosion at Grouse Ponds # 1 and #2 spillway <br />outfalls repaired on or before May 10, 1996, weather pending. Wet weather could potentially <br />make it impossible to access the sites with necessary equipment, consequently setting back the <br />repair schedule. <br />Competent rock will be placed into the eroded portions of both spillway outfalls in order to stabi- <br />lize head-cutting and prevent additional erosion. The two outfalls will then be further stabilized as <br />follows: <br />Grouse Pond #1. LANDLOCK ECRM 450 synthetic erosion control fabric will be used <br />for the entire outflow of Grouse Pond #1. This fabric is a much more durable erosion con- <br />trol material than the Excelsior Blanket previously used. The characteristics of Landlock <br />450 are detailed in revision MR-141 which was approved on 11/1/95. <br />2. Grouse Pond #2. Excelsior Blanket will be extended from the point of previous termination <br />to the end of the spillway outfall. In addition, the last roll of Excelsior Blanket, at the point <br />where erosion occurred, will be replaced in order to create a more uniform blanket installa- <br />tion. This approach should control future erosion at this site given the relatively shallow <br />slope of the spillway outfall. <br />Please contact me if you approve of this plan and schedule or if you have any questions or <br />concerns. <br />Since~rely~ <br />y~.'"_' <br />Forrest V.
