the spoil in quantities significant enough to affect ground water quality. <br /> Therefore, special handling is not required for these materials (4.05.8(3)). <br /> F. Impoundments <br /> 1. Refer to the section regarding sediment ponds (4.05.9). <br /> G. Surface and Ground Water Monitoring <br /> 1. The applicant will conduct monitoring of ground water in a manner <br /> approved by the Division. The ground water monitoring plan is specified <br /> in Section 2.05.4, Ground Water Monitoring, and shown on Table 5, <br /> contained in Volume 1 of the permit application (4.05.13(1)). <br /> 2. The applicant will conduct monitoring of surface water in a manner <br /> approved by the Division. The monitoring plan is specified in <br /> Section 2.05.4, Surface Water Monitoring, and shown on Table 5 <br /> contained in Volume 1 of the permit application (4.05.13(2)). <br /> H. Transfer of Wells <br /> 1. No transfer of wells is proposed at this time. All monitoring wells will be <br /> reclaimed prior to bond release (4.05.14 (3)). <br /> I. Discharge of Water into an Underground Mine <br /> I. There will not be any discharge of water into an underground mine <br /> (4.05.16(2,i). <br /> J. Stream Buffer Zones <br /> 1. The Division proposes to approve underground mining activities within 100 <br /> feet of the North Fork of the Gunnison River, which is a perennial stream <br /> with a biological community. This decision is based on a finding that the <br /> original stream channel will not be disturbed, water quality and quantity <br /> shall not be adversely affected, and appropriate riparian vegetation will be <br /> reestablished. The buffer zone variance is granted for the water intake <br /> gallery, sediment pond and associated spillways and ditches, a railroad <br /> siding, the railroad loadout facility, a light-use road and a portion of the <br /> old Bear No. 1 and 2 Mines site. These facilities are located on the north <br /> and south banks of the North Fork of the Gunnison River. Figure 12 in <br /> the MCC permit shows the disturbed areas within the buffer zone. The <br /> Division approved this variance on August 6, 1981, according to <br /> Rule 4.05.18(1). This variance has been amended and clarified as a result <br /> of Minor Revision No. 111, approved December 16, 1993. <br /> 22 <br />
