FASTS I DE M I NE <br />Wa t e r Monitoring P r og r am <br />Introduction <br />Baseline surface water monitoring was obtained in September 1983 <br />with a full suite of chemical parameters analyzed. Additional <br />surface and underground hydrologic sampling was analyzed for a full <br />suite of chemical parameters in April 1984. Eastside's hydrologic <br />monitoring program was initiated in July 1984. Surface and <br />underground field parameters were measured, and samples for <br />chemical parameters were collected as defined by Stipulation 1 of <br />the Mining and Reclamation Permit, C-84-063, approved January 14, <br />1985. Due to a large reduction in flow, monitoring of the two <br />underground wells and seep was eliminated. After three years of <br />quarterly sampling the full suite of chemical parameters with no <br />significant deviations or variations, the fuli suite of chemical <br />parameter sampling was Feduced from quarterly to semi-annual <br />sampling. <br />The present surface sampling points are: 1-Harvey Gap Outlet-Above <br />Mine; 2-Harvey Gap Outlet-Below Kline; 3-Seep below Harvey Gap <br />Reservoir. The ground water sampling points are: 1-Mine water as <br />;t is discharged from the pipe coming from underground; 2-Geotech <br />well located near the toe of the planned waste disposal pile. <br />The water monitoring program was initiated by Stephen Self, General <br />Manager. Current monitoring is performed by Linda Limbach. <br />Samples for the full suite of chemical parameters are shipped to <br />ACZ Laboratory in Steamboat Spri~igs, Colorado for analysis. <br />1 <br />
