-14- <br />IV. Geology - Rules 2.04.5 and 2.04.6(2) <br />For a description of the geology for the mine area, please see the Regional Geology <br />and Ground Water Rydrology portion of Section iX, Probable Hydrologic Consequences <br />and Cumulative Impact Assessment of this document. <br />The geology sections of the permit application, found in Sections 2.04.5 and 2.04.6 <br />of the Bear No. 1 and No. 2 application and in the saner sections of the Bear No. 3 <br />application, have been reviewed by the Division for compliance. Deficiencies noted <br />in the P.A.R. of May 15, 1981 have been resolved. The applicant has supplied <br />revised geologic maps delineating faults, folds and landslides. <br />Drill hole Logs requested by the Division were provided in Maps 2.04.6(2)(a)-7 and <br />2.09.6(2)(a)-8 of the Bear No. 1 and No. 2 application. Electric logs were provided <br />for two holes in Exhibit 8 of the Bear No. 3 application. The applicant stated <br />that the depth where water was first encountered in the holes drilled by ARCO above <br />the workings of the Bear No. I and No. 2 was not available, but that during hydrologic <br />testing, no large volumes of water were encountered in sandstone zones above the F <br />seam. During drilling of two exploration holes on the permit area above the proposed <br />Bear No. 3 workings, no water was encountered. <br />The analyses of the C seam coat requested by the Division is provided on page 2.04-21 <br />of the Bear No. 3 application. <br />All concerns pertaining to the geology description which were raised in the Division's <br />review have been satisfactorily resolved and the proposed operation is in compliance. <br />
