'dith all this bacl:.ground in mind, i.[ is probably appropriate to give the Division an updaCe on our compliance s~ith, t•ne stipulaCions ouClined in tl~e August 11, 1931 le[ter. Stipu_ lation 1 dealt with surface water monitoring and the relocation o--E a ,`lume in order to obtain better data. SThis relocation has not been accomplished due to out inability Co obtain an agreement from the surface owner. We have, however, maintained our monitorinG program wiCh the flume in its original location.° Stipulation 2 dealt wiCh the installation of an alluvial s~el] over the second cast entries l•7e are now workin;; in [he second east entries and driving toward the Creek but are still appro:•:i- mately 700 feet from the Curtis Creek area. Eecause the seams are dipping, we will be some 43O feet below the surface, approxi- mately 240 feet deeper than in the first east section. This stipulation was also cnntinz,e~,it upon the abili[y of ?]orthern to gain access to a location Ear the well which would provide mean- ingful data. Our inability to deal witl~~ the surface owner hash made it impossible to install this ;ae 11 ..l • Stipulation 3 dealt wiCh supplementation of existing darn by underground observaCion in the first cast submair.s~+ Observa- ~ tions have been made b miners and tcchnir;l ~ y personnel contin- i~ uously during minim .

Stipulation 4 deal[ with fife phased development of tine first, secnnu, an bird oast cntrics~ 'de have hcen able to maintain a staggered development as the first east entries are already several hundrec] yards pas[ Che Curtis Creel: alluvium and hava shown no problems underground. :•'e ate now in the process (approximately 5 months later) of devel.opiny the second east enCric~.
