Climatological Information and Air Resources - Rules 2.04.8, 7_.05.4 (2)(h) <br />When an increase in water and gas occurred in early 1988 as a result of <br />development work in the Second Right workings, it became necessary to <br />vent off the methane via a degas wells. Minor revision 05 was approved <br />on April 25, 1988. This revision allowed for the installation of <br />degassing wells above the Second Right workings. Two stipulations, 39 <br />and 40, were attached to this approval. Stipulation 39 required <br />additional bonding for reclamation work associated with the new vent <br />holes. Stipulation 40 required that WFC secure the necessary permits for <br />venting the methane. As of this approval date, the Divison has not <br />received evidence that said permit was obtained. Therefore Stipulation <br />40 remains unsatisfied and is repeated here. <br />Stipulation 40 <br />PRIOR TO THE ACTUAL VENTING OF METHANE GAS FROM THE MINE WORKINGS TO THE <br />ATMOSPHERE BY MEANS OF PROPOSED VENTILATION HOLES E-1 and E-2, WFC WILL <br />SECURE THE NECESSARY PERMIT (OR A WRITTEN PERMIT EXEMPTION) FOR SUCH <br />VENTING FROM THE APPROPRIATE DIVISION OF THE COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF <br />HEALTH. <br />This stipulation also applies to Minor Revision 06 which was a field <br />approval for more vent holes. <br />When this stipulation is satisfied the operation will be in compliance <br />with the requirements of this section. <br />X I .

This <br />stipulation required that the operator submit a plan for topsoil <br />redistribution at the Golden Eagle Mine detailing areas to be topsoiled <br />and reapplication depths. During the renewal process the Division <br />requested that WFC satisfy this stipulation, Since most of the surface <br />facilities were constructed pre-law, little topsoil was stripped and <br />stockpiled during this process. Therefore, stockpiled topsoil volumes <br />-33- <br />
