<br />Alluvial Wel/ Abandonment <br />When the mine was reclaimed in 199?, the caretaker's trailer on the adjacent property <br />was also reclaimed and the landowner requested that ever~nhing be removed from the <br />property. This included the building, trash, waste and the alluvia] well, which is <br />shown on Exhibit P-3. As described on Page 65.06 of the permit, this well was to be <br />used to determine surface water and alluvial water upstream from the mine. Its location <br />was approximately ]0 feet from the Creek and never showed any difference in water <br />quality from that of the Creek itself, other than a slight variation in temperature, no <br />more than a few degrees. <br />The well was only ten feet deep and consisted of a 3 feet diamter concrete culvert <br />placed upright with holes to allow water infiltration. The well was backfilled for the <br />full ten feet depth and was reclaimed according to the CDMG rules. <br />Currently, the upstream sampling will be conducted by a new 2" or 3" diameter pvc <br />pipe installed in the immediate proximity of the old well. <br /> <br />Permit Rene~ro! 3 !!/97 p ~gr{3 <br />
