Douchane <br />Battle Mountain Gold Co. <br />5670 Greenwood Plaza Blvd., Suite 106 <br />Englewood, CO 80111 <br />RE: San Luis (Permit M-88-112) BMR Response to Division Adequacy Review <br />Proposed Technical Revision 8. <br />The Division is in receipt of Battle Mountain Resources' response referenced <br />above. In regard to the response to Comment 1, the Division, as well as <br />Battle Mountain Resources, will have to be satisfied that the well network is <br />adequate in order to forego additional well locations and additional testing. <br />The operator should commit to receiving Division concurrence in regard to <br />the adequacy of the monitoring network before terminating the program. <br />In regard to the response to Comment 2, the Division agrees that it may be <br />premature, to some extent, to criticize the proposed locations. The <br />Suggestion was made in the hope that better initial location of wells M-12 and <br />M-13 might improve the operator's chance of not having to drill any additional <br />wells. Since Battle Mountain Resources prefers its proposed locations and to <br />accept the greater risks that M-12 and M-13 may not prove to be in optimum <br />locations for contaminant leak monitoring, the Division will accept the <br />proposed locations. <br />In regard to Comment 3, the Division finds the response acceptable. <br />If you have any questions, please call. <br />Sincerely, <br />Cubt~Li G~;~c•~~ <br />James C.
