Colorado 81641 <br />(303)8244451 <br />(303) 824-4459 FAx <br />July 6, 1995 <br />The attached request for a Technical Revision is submitted as a follow up and <br />replacement to the Minor Revision No. 30 submitted June 23, 1995. <br />This revision addresses maintenance to correctthe effects of naturally occurring hillside <br />slumps and water seepage in the vicinity of the West Pit Pond. This Technical Revision is also <br />submitted to satisfy the remaining requirements pertaining to NOV C-95-005. While we <br />believe this revision more appropriately fits the category of a Minor Revision, at the Division's <br />request it is submitted as a Technical Revision. <br />In addition, we have also included with this revision a discussion by CTL/Thompson <br />addressing issues initially noted in the Division's May 25, 1995 correspondence. As you will <br />recall, during our June 12, 1995 meeting with the Division, we discussed issues pertinent to <br />stability of the West Pit Fill, West Pit Pond maintenance and drainage issues related to the <br />seepage zones adjacent to the Pond. Today's submittal is intended to provide closure to these <br />issues by 11 providing an analysis of future West Pit Fill/groundwater issues; 21 maintenance <br />of the West Pit Pond south embankment; 31 a plan for improving drainage from the upper seep <br />zone; and 4) monitoring. <br />A proposed Public Notice is attached which will be published upon notification from the <br />Division that the application is complete. <br />Please contact me if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />mes A.
