than 1000 feet to the bedrock's outcrop on the banks of Trout <br />Creek or to the bedrock's subcrop beneath the creek's alluvium <br />(PAP, Exhibit 2.5-25). <br />6. Leachate impacts on alluvial water -Leachate transmitted to Trout <br />Creek alluvium through the unmined wedge of bedrock at the toe <br />of the pit will not cause material damage to Trout Creek alluvial <br />water because the leachate will be sufficiently diluted by the <br />fresher alluvial water (PAP, page 2.5-104). (Leachate will not <br />discharge to Oak Creek alluvium because Oak Creek is not in <br />hydraulic communication with the former pits.) <br />Leachate impacts on surface water -Leachate discharging to the <br />ground surface in spoil springs will not cause material damage to <br />surface water in Trout Creek because the leachate will be <br />sufficiently diluted by the fresher stream water (PAP, page 2.5- <br />104). Maximum TDS of 1186 mg/1(page 2.SA-7) is predicted for <br />Trout Creek immediately downstream from the Edna Mine. <br />Leachate will not discharge to Oak Creek surface water because <br />Oak Creek is separated by topography from the former pits. <br />C-1980-001 Permit Renewal 5 Findings Page 25 of 33 Pages <br />
