otherwise had an effect upon, the landslide. • The effects of water and hydrostatic pressures upon the landslide. This should include precipitation data collected at the Trapper Mine between September 1, 2006 and October 8, 2006, and a determination as to whether precipitation contributed to, or otherwise had an effect upon, the landslide. • The failure surface/zone within the stratigraphy of the landslide azea. Please determine how this failure surface/zone may have contributed to the landslide. • The structural geology of the slide azea. Please determine how the structural geology may have contributed to the landslide. • The location and extent of the "scoria" outcrop neaz the southwest corner of the landslide. Please determine whether this geologic feature contributed to the landslide. • The shear strength, cohesion, and angle of friction of the materials in the failure surface/zone. • The amount and weight of materials that contributed to the driving forces of the slide. • The total forces that drove the slide, the resistive forces from side or boundary conditions, and the forces that arrested the slide. • How the information regarding the cause of the landslide pertains to current and future mining and reclamation operations at the Trapper Mine. 2. The printouts of dewatering well data provided to Division personnel during the October 10-12, 2006 Division inspection plot information from the date each well was drilled through the date of the landslide. Unfortunately, given the horizontal scale of these charts, the data points plot too close together to accurately discern water level behavior at discrete collection dates. Please resubmit these charts with dewatering well data over the period from just October 2005 to October 2006. 3. Please enlazge the information provided on the "Geotechnical Monitoring Dewatering Wells" map for the dewatering wells in the G-dip and G-strike mining areas. The font size used for the dewatering well labels on the map was so small as to make the label illegible. Please also provide information pertaining to the depth and screened interval for each well. 4. Dewatering wells DW 2, DW 23, DW 24, DW 26, DW 27, DW 28, Gl, and GP1 test were identified on the water level data plots provided to the Division during the October 10-12, 2006 Division inspection. We aze, however, unable to locate these particulaz wells on the "Geotechnical Monitoring Dewatering Wells" map. Please resubmit this map with these wells located on this map. 1f any of these wells have been mined through or abandoned, please provide a description of the disposition of those wells.
