<br />to produce water (as evidenced by water in the pond) with no mine impacts <br />apparent and conditions in the area unchanged since 1981. <br />SP 28': Spring & Ford 28 lies outside the area of any potential mining impacts. <br />The pond was observed in July (3/4 full) with an inflow of 1.3 gpm <br />oaarrrirg frown the spring. No water quality sample was obtained as a <br />sufficient water quality database exists for this feature and no potential <br />mine impacts are reasonably projected to occur at this site. Ztris site <br />was visited again in August aryl observed (1/3 full) with no mPac~~rahle <br />flow from the spring. The August observation was omitted from the AHI2. <br />There is no practical reason to continue monitoring at Spring 28 as no <br />mine related impacts can reasonably be expected to occur at this site. <br />SP 7-42: No data was collected from Spring & Pond 7-4 during 1992. This site <br />overlies an area of the Fast mine idle since 1983. As noted in the 1992 <br />AHR, the wrong field location was being checked for this site. Limited <br />water quality database exists to characterize water quality at this site <br />arxi all the samplers were wllected c~~t~n~Pnt to mining in this area. <br />SP 7-5Z: Spring & Pond 7-5 overlies an area of the Fast mine idle since 1983. <br />Spring & Porri 7-5 was observed in June (porn full; inflow 0.0010 cfs), <br />July (pond full; outflow 0.0016 cfs), and August (pond full; no measurable <br />inflow or outflow). Flow and field parameter maav~iretllents from June were <br />ornitted from the AHR. June nlI = 8.4; DC = 245; Temo C° = 14. No water <br />quality sarnples were collected in June from this site as a sufficient <br />water quality database to characterize water quality at this site exists <br />and has been compiled since 1983 when mining ceased. No field parameters <br />were obtained in Auqust as the water in the pond was stagnant. <br />SP 12-4': Spring & Pond 12-4 lies outside the area of any potential mining ing~acts. <br />The pond was observed in July (no measurable flow; Pond 1/2 full) and <br />August (no measurable flow; Pond 1/4 full). No water quality sample was <br />obtained as no flows were observed. A sufficient water quality database <br />exists to characterize pre-mining water quality at this site. No further <br />monitoring was conducted during 1992 as the spring was observed with rro <br />measurable flows and presumed to remain in this condition throughout the <br />remainder of the year. The spring was observed to continue to produce <br />water (as evidenced by water in the pond) with no mine impacts apparent <br />and conditions in the area unchanged since the inception of monitoring. <br />There is no practical reason to wntinue monitoring at Pond & Spring 12-4 <br />as no mine related impacts can reasonably be expected to occur at this <br />site. <br />SP 13-5: Spring & Pond 13-5 overlies an area mined during the last half of 1991 <br />(Panel A) aryl middle of 1992 (Panel B). 7Stis location was observed in <br />June (0.0030 cfs inflow; porn full), July (no measurable inflow; pond 3/4 <br />full) , and August (no +~+~a~~rable inflow; porxi 3/4 full) 1992. The June <br />inflow measurement was omitted from the AHR. No water quality samples <br />were collected. In June, a sample could have been collected but was not <br />as OOVCC questioned the utility of this information. The spring was still <br />functioning aryl had not been noticeably disrupted by subsidence. A <br />sufficient database for the pre-mining water quality at this location has <br />been established and, if necessary, additional water quality information <br />can be obtained in the future. All mining which could potentially effect <br />this site has been ca~g~leted and significant water quality impacts, as <br />7 <br />
