<br /> 45 <br /> <br /> 1 There is not a lot of water trapped in <br /> 2 the pores of the tailings, so you don't entrain a <br />' 3 t <br />l <br />f <br />t <br />i <br />t <br />th <br /> o <br />wa <br />o <br />er <br />o <br />n <br />e system. <br />' 4 Now, Rob can address this mur_h better, <br /> 5 but I think the point that needs to be made is this <br />' 6 is not a typical, traditional tailings impoundment. <br /> 7 UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: Is there much <br />' 8 water when you initially lay the materia]. out or <br />' 9 it's just laid out thinly and then water evaporates <br /> 10 more quickly? <br /> 11 MS. BALDRIGE: Laid out thinly and the <br /> 12 water evaporates more quickly. <br />' 13 UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: Has anything ever <br /> 14 gone wrong? You said there are in other parts of <br />' 15 the wo <br />ld <br />th <br />i <br />t <br />f th <br />U <br />it <br />d <br />t <br />t <br /> r <br />, <br />n o <br />er par <br />s o <br />a <br />es, <br />e <br />n <br />e <br />S <br /> 16 these types of things. Nothing -- anything <br /> 17 undesirable there? <br />' 18 MS. BALDRIGE: If the method is done <br />19 correctly, it's a very efficient method of disposing <br />' 20 of tailings, both from an operator's standpoint and <br />' 21 also from the standpoint of environmental concerns. <br />22 I'm going to talk a little bit about the <br />' 23 tailings disposal area itself. The disposal area is <br />24 fully lined and designed to be nondischarging over <br />' 25 the life of the facility. <br />AGREN, BLANDO & BILLINGS <br /> <br />
