.~ <br />Memo to Cathy Begej - 4 - March 13, 1990 <br />Overburden Geochemistry Data <br />Comments on these daia have been covered previously. <br />Uverburden Sampling Program Requirement <br />KCC has committed to an overburden sampling program as mining progresses in <br />the Pit 2 area. No sampling is being done, or committed to in the Pit 1 or <br />120 Pit areas. Tne following comments apply: <br />1. The nature of collecting baseline information required under Rule 2.04 is <br />so plans prepared in accordance with Rule 2.05 can meet the applicable <br />performance standards of Rule 4. This necessarily entails collection of <br />baseline data prior to, not during, mining and/or mine development <br />activities. KCC must commit to a more intensive sampling program in the <br />Pit 2 area prior to any more development in that area so that the Permit <br />Application Package complies with Rule 2.04.6. further, KCC should <br />commit to a more intensive overburden sampling program in the Pit 1 and <br />720 Pit areas so that they may ensure that the Permit Application Package <br />is in compliance with Rule 2.04.6 and that the mine operations will be in <br />compliance with Rule 4.14.3. <br />Selective Overburden Handling Plan <br />The following comment applies: <br />1. Subsequent to the baseline sampling program that KCC must commit to, a <br />determination will be made as to whether a selective overburden handling <br />plan is needed. <br />ec~. SuSa,,,.
