J <br />White F;fiver Nahcolite Minerals <br />~,: <br />October 21, 1999 , .. ~ ~ <br />~~ l~~ ~~ <br />Mr. John Mehlhoff, Area Manager <br />White River Resource Area <br />Bureau of Land Management <br />73544 Highway 64 <br />Meeker, CO 81641 <br />SUBJECT: Request to Delete Stream Gauging Stations <br />Dear Mr. Mehlhoff: <br />As a result of a second sodium minerals project having the responsibility for stream <br />gauging station monitoring in the Piceance Basin, WRN would like to split the <br />funding burden. I understand the rational for Am Soda's responsibility is based on <br />the location of their plant site in the Piceance Creek drainage. Because of the <br />location of the Am Soda site, they are only required to fund the two gauging station <br />on Piceance Creek. Based on this logic, WRN is located in the Yellow Creek <br />drainage and should only be funding the two Yellow Creek stations. <br />Therefore, we would like to request approval for a change in WRN's monitoring <br />plan to include only the t,HO stream gauging stations on Yellow Creek. The two <br />stations are know as Con-al Gulch and Yellow Creek at White River. Section II of <br />WRNS Monitoring Plan would be revised (as shown on attached page 25), if this <br />proposal is approved. <br />If there are any questions please contact me or WRNS Project Manager, Bob <br />Warneke. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~ <br />Ed Baker, REM <br />E/H/S Manager <br />CC: EPA <br />DMG <br />Whlte Rlvsr IJaheollte Mlnsrele.
