In our letter of May 11,1989 we proposed using the existing <br />trench and part of the gob pit as an asbestos disposal site, and we are still pursuing <br />those possibilities. In our survey of the site we have found two cased monitoring <br />wells installed by Cooper & Clark Consulting Engineers as pazt o>: ttheir ground water <br />study of the disposal site. The wells are numbered 2 & 5 on their maps. I want <br />to bring the existance of these wells to your attention as you plan to complete <br />your reclamation of the Hawk's Nest Mine. These wells are important to the site <br />especially as the county continues to utilize the site as a landfill. We request <br />that these wells not be disturbed during^your reclamation of the site. Also, if <br />protective steel casings with lockable covers could be installed over the PVC casing <br />as pazt of the site reclamation this would be very helpfull. <br />Thank you for your attention to this matter. <br />s Truly, <br />enneth Nordstrom <br />Director of Environmental Health <br />KN:iwp <br />
