~~ ~ i • <br />d) The application does not address dust blowing from the dried <br />tailings site, fugitive dust in general, emiss:ons from the <br />carbon kiln, or process emissions. There are no details of air <br />emission permit requirements being met, or a provision for a <br />system of air monitoring. <br />e) The potential hazard of emissions from the Dore furnace are <br />not detailed. <br />f) There is no covering or other protection for t:he free water <br />pool and collection pond so as to exclude wildlif"e, stock and <br />humans. Data is lacking regarding -the levels of acid, cyanide <br />and/ or metals in the pool and collection ponds. <br />g) The high porosity of the area's soils-make coni:amination- of- <br />the surface and /or subsurface waters a potential Ycazard. Once <br />contaminated, aquifers can neJer be restored to their original <br />condition. <br />h) The Reclamation Plan is insufficient because there is <br />inadequate planning for the survival of tree seed'.ings through <br />irrigation. Failure to revegetate properly brings on destructive <br />erosion patterns. The costs allotted for revegetat:iion indicate <br />inadequate committment to successful revegetation. <br />In conclusion, the Amended Application for the San Luis <br />Project submitted by Battle Mountain Resources has substantial <br />changes from the original application without e:csential risk <br />analysis data, or sufficient preventive measures t:o ensure that <br />the operation does not destroy the area for the people of San <br />Luis and their progeny. Minimally, the MLRB should schedule a <br />hearing in San Luis, where the public good is profoundly <br />impacted by the proposed mining operation. <br />Sincerely, <br />~O~a~ <br />Nora Jacquez, Ph.D <br />Attorney at Law <br />
