(Northwest Colorado Consultants, Inc.) has prepared this letter outlining our <br />inspections made during the first quarter of 1999 at the Waste Coal Area, which is located at the Foidel <br />Creek Mine in Routt County, Colorado. <br />We visited the projec[ site on Mazch 25, 1999 with Rick Mills to inspect the waste coal area. At the time <br />of our visit, the contractor was stockpiling the waste coal materials in the northern and central portions of <br />Area 2 of the waste coal area. Based on our observations, it appears that the contractor had been <br />stockpiling the waste coal materials in the north-central portion of the stockpile and had not placed any <br />compacted lips since Last fall. The surface drainage chazacteris[ics at the site appeared satisfac[ory and <br />much better than those observed at the site the previous springs. <br />As suggested in our previous quarterly report, the water levels in the monitor wells, installed on Oc[ober <br />23, 1997, were measured during this quarter on a monthly basis. The groundwater elevations measured <br />in the wells are summarized below. <br />Groundwater Elevations <br /> Test Hole 1 Test Hole 2 <br />Date (South Well) (North Well) <br />10/30/97 6894.5' 6892.3' <br />11/25/97 6891.5' 6887.3' <br />L0/1/98 6896.2' 6894.7' <br />10/29/98 6896.1' 6894.7' <br />11/24(98 6897.5' 6894.6' <br />12/30/98 6897.9' 6894.2' <br />01/29/99 6898.1' 6893.8' <br />02/11/99 6898.1' 6893.8' <br />03/17/99 6904.0' 6893.8' <br />(970) 879.7888 • Fax (970) 879.7891 <br />2063 Snow Bowl Pleza, P.O.
