<br /> <br />~i <br />i <br />Following completion of mining by Peerless Resources, Inc. in the <br />planned Coal Gulch Mine, the portals will be sealed with concrete cinder <br />block retaining walls. Pipes will be left at the top of the entries to <br />allow for both possible methane discharge or subsurface water discharge. <br />As subsurface water accumulates behind the seals of the closed Coal <br />Gulch Mine, the chance for oxidation with the pyritic sulfur in the coal <br />should be minimized. In fact, over time as the old workings are filled <br />with subsurface water, no or only minor amounts of oxygen should be <br />present. Subsequently, Peerless Resources, Inc. does not anticipate any <br />long-term problem with low pll drainage from the closure of its planned <br />operation. <br />....L <br />L/.o5 -3 C3 <br /> <br />
