CNAPTERTWO Agency Pireterred Altemattjlle Process Monitoring • The solution mining wells would be monitored by an automated system for pressure, temperature, mass flow rate, fluid flow rate, and inflow/outflow density a.t 10-minute intervals. • Recycled water in the return line from the Parachute Site would be monitored, at a minirnum, on a daily basis for: carbonate, bicarbonate, sodium specific gravity, temperature, pressure, pH, iron, and conductivity. Quarterly samples would be analyzed for the parameters listed in Table 2, and annual samples would be analyzed for the parameters listed in Table 3. Quality Assurance/Quality Control A Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Plan is included. American Soda would maintain afull-time environmental coordinator who would assure adherence to the QA/QC plan. Major components of the plan include: • Standard operating procedures for sample collection, handling, and analysis • Laboratory data validation including third-party review • QA/QC sampling and analysis • Corrective action measures to be enacted if deviations from baseline or established opernting criteria occur 2.3.4 Soil Conservation, Erosion and Sediment Control, Reclamation, and Revegetation • Plan (Reclamation Plan) The Draft EIS included an executive summary of the Proposed Erosion Comrol, Reclamation, and Revegetation Procedures (Appendix A of Draft EIS). This plan has bee~i revised and is now part of the Agency Preferred Alternative. It is presented in its entirety as Appendix H. The Soil Conservation, Erosion and Sediment Control, Reclamation, and Revegetation Plan (Reclamation Plan) addresses activities associated with the well fields, surface facilities, and access roads. Reclamation of the pipeline comdor is addressed separately in the Pipeline flan of Development (Appendix F). The Reclamation Plan also does not include final reclamation and closure of the plant site facilities, which would occur in the distant future and would be addressed by American Soda and the appropriate agencies as the project nears completion. The Reclamation Plan includes the following components: • Executive Summary (Section 1), including the four principal types of activities used to limit disturbance (planning and design, hydrologic protection, soil resource salvage and reconstruction, and contemporaneous revegetation) • Summary of disturbance types and facilities (Section 2) Objectives and goals (Section 3.1) • Use of BMPs (Sections 3.2, 3:3 and Appendix A) and descriptions of BDiIPs (Appendixes B, C, D, and E) 2-10
