FLAG REH~URCEH, INC. • ~ PAOE 3 <br />TECHNICAL REVieioN - JuLr 1 6, 1999 <br />RECLAMATION PLAN CHANGES <br />The final reclamation plan will remain ,the same, <br />except the final shape of the south lake shore and the small <br />pond area on the north side of the site where a secondary <br />pond will be created along the river. We will continue to <br />create wetland areas in the shallows around the lake and <br />maintain the 3h to lv sloping. We are experimenting with <br />building areas of rock rubble along the south slope so that <br />once the lake level stabilizes we will have created shallow <br />rock beds available to fish for spawning. The Mining Plan <br />Map shows the location of this area as it exists now. The <br />Reclamation Plan Map shows how we think the area will look <br />when mining ends. The exact area covered by, spawning bed <br />area will vary depending on the amount of waste material we <br />have to create them. <br />RECLAMATION MAP REVISIONS <br />Map Exhibit F shows how we think the site will look <br />when reclamation is complete. The exact shape of the south <br />lake line may change depending on what we find as mining <br />progress in that area. <br />we have attached a bond calculation eatimatelsheet for your <br />review, based on the amount of disturbance at the current time. <br />Steve O'Brian of Environment, Inc., prepared this analysis using <br />the current and proposed areas of disturbance to calculate the <br />cost for each action necessary to do reclamation in a worst case <br />scenario. <br />Attached are pictures showing the facility, completed slopes <br />and reclaimed areas done at this time. The photos were taken at <br />two different times and show some of the same areas. We are also <br />waiving the normal 30-day approval time for this Technical Revi- <br />sion but request it be completed within 60 days so we can com- <br />plete the bonding change in a timely manner. We would like to <br />change the bond when it is renewed this year to save the surety <br />company from having to duplicate the work. If you have any <br />questions please call me at (970) 876-2397 or Steve O Brian at <br />(303) 423-7297. <br />Sincerely, <br />Flag Resources, Inc. <br />~~~~~. <br />Fred Frei <br />President <br />cc Environment, Inc. <br />file <br />enclosures <br />
