Summary of B Seam Well Quality <br />Year of data pH TDS SAR Typology <br />Well <br />'77 <br />SOM 23-H-1 8.35 6100 NaSo4 <br />'69 <br />SOM 23-H-1 8.5 773 160 NaHC03 <br />'89 <br />SOM C-72-H 11.2 1780 NaC03 <br />'89 <br />SOM-127-H 7.35 4061 81.28 NaHC03 <br />a. SOM 23-H-1 was apparent impacted by a landslide somewhere <br />after August, 1978. Salinity dropped almost ten times, <br />the water typology changed and water levels went up over <br />500: Is the entire well intact to its original depth? <br />Was the sampling methodology in the late 70's different <br />from what was used this winter? What other explanations <br />can account for the significant variability observed? <br />b. Well C-72-H appears to be contaminated with grout due <br />to its high pH. This data is unacceptable and should be <br />withdrawn from the application materials. Anew well <br />should be installed to provide information about the <br />B-seam. <br />c. The salinity in these wells varies considerably. Can you <br />correlate these variation with changes in geology, well <br />completion factors or any other parameters? Justify the <br />use of only three wells to monitor this seam when the <br />variability is so great. <br />d. Please supplement Tables 2.SA 13, 2.8A 14 and 2.8A 15 <br />with any additional data you have collected. <br />4. The location of geological data documentation is summarized <br />on page 2-283. There is no reference given for the three <br />B-seam holes drilled in 1988. Please reference permit <br />application documentation of these holes or prepare a <br />section describing the drilling, associated testing and <br />completion data for them. <br />5. The drill hole located in the SE 1/4 SW 1/4 of Section 21, <br />T13A, R90W has been variously identified as SOM-DH-3, <br />SOM-U3 and 127-H. Is there only one drill hole at this <br />location? <br />6. Please include a commitment to acquire adjacent baseline <br />moni tori ng data from the E seam and twelve months prior to <br />submittal of a revision to mine that seam. <br />
