Brian Watterson <br />Page 2 <br />04/29/05 <br />provide the necessary data for the Yampa River (#4). For #7, please provide <br />affirmative evidence that a Phase III bond release application is not currently <br />under review nor will any Phase III application be submitted any time prior to <br />January 1, 2007. <br />3. On Table 1 of the AHR, rather than a measurement of water level for WF-1, WF- <br />2and No. 1 Strip Pit, the Table should likely read "Flow" under Frequency of <br />Measurement. <br />4. The Okie Plaza well was undermined in 1994 and therefore eliminated from the <br />hydrologic monitoring plan. Page 2.05-23 requires that wells that will be mined <br />through will be sealed prior to undermining. Please submit an abandonment <br />report for this well in accordance with Rule 4.07.3. <br />5. Please submit a minor revision to include hardness in the parameter lists on <br />Tables 8, 8A, and 9A. <br />Monitoring Freguencv <br />The monitoring frequency as determined by Appendix D, Temporary Cessation <br />Monitoring Plan (TC Plan) pages D-1 and D-2, June 21, 2001 is as follows: <br />NDPES Outfalls <br />• All NDPES outfalls are monitored at a frequency that is the same as the active mining <br />monitoring plan (pages 1-14 of Exhibit 29). <br />6. Please provide a copy of the current CDPS permit CO-0034142 for the Division <br />copy of the mine records. <br />7. Please explain the statement under Section 3.2.2 Ponds, "There was no <br />discharge from the sediment ponds in 2004." The Division understands that <br />outtalls 003, 022, and 024 are point source discharge locations from sediment <br />ponds. If this is not correct, please explain. <br />The frequency of monitoring CDPS outfalls appears in compliance with the <br />requirements of the CDPS permit. <br />Surface Water Monitorino <br />Two surface water sites, WF-1 and WF-2, are monitored along the Williams Fork River. <br />During temporary cessation, the monthly and/or quarterly requirements are reduced to <br />one annual visit to each station. <br />8. Please provide the lab sample sheets for the samples retrieved for the date <br />8/13/2004, or for another date between July 20 and August 30. It appears that <br />2003 data may have been inadvertently reported for 2004. <br />. Until the operator provides this information, compliance with the sampling frequency <br />cannot be determined for the two surface water sites. <br />
