<br /> <br />J. J. Dudash - 5 - January 17 2001 <br />The monitoring point DH-13 is a monitoring well developed from historic coal <br />exploration. The current permit presents static water levels that were taken from <br />records of monitoring done in 1983 and 1984. No field parameters are available <br />for this well. Monitoring that began in 1995 could not produce water for sampling <br />due to a misalignment in the drill hole. It was possible during early attempts to M- <br />Scope the hole for static water level, but no water has been bailed from this hole <br />for many years. Additionally, this hole has now been destroyed by mining. <br />Therefore, this table has been removed from the PR-04 submittal. <br />The monitoring point known as AW-2 is an Alluvial Well located near the entrance <br />to the mine along old Highway 133. This well does not produce sufficient water <br />for a full suite analysis or even field parameters. It is possible to measure water <br />depth, but not have the ability to draw water. <br />The monitoring points known as AW-8 and AW-10 are newly installed monitoring <br />wells installed below a new sediment pond south of Highway 133. These wells <br />were installed during the fall of 1999, very near the end of the reporting period for <br />PR-04. AW-8 did not produce sufficient water for a full suite analysis, meaning it <br />was not possible to draw water in a sufficient quantity for sampling. The alluvial <br />well AW-10 was tested but could not provide a reliable depth measurement, it is <br />felt that the hole collapsed and the water measured during this event was trapped <br />water, and therefore not representative of the holes purpose. This well has been <br />dropped from the sampling regime, and the table removed from the PR-04 <br />submittal. <br />Missing Field Parameter Baseline Values <br />The spring monitoring point identified as S-10 has not produced flows of >5 gpm <br />and therefore have not had full suite analysis performed. The spring did not <br />exhibit sufficient flows during the baseline period to generate field parameters for <br />a baseline average. <br />The surface water monitoring point identified as Steph-Up has never exhibited a <br />flow since monitoring was started in 1995, and therefore no field parameters are <br />available to average as baseline values. <br />The monitoring point DH-13 is a monitoring well developed from historic coal <br />exploration.
