I SCOPE OF REPORT: <br />It is our understanding that the nature of this project is <br />I to consist of the renovation of existing portal facilities at the <br />site of the old Clark Mine workings at Somerset, Colorado. <br />including renovation of the existing access road in that area. <br />The project will also involve construction of a new intake portal <br />and/or fan portal at two possible locations. In addition to <br />portal area construction, the project will also involve <br />construction of a crusher, conveyor, stacking tube, and other <br />miscellaneous surface facilities located both on an existing <br />I bench below the main portal bench and on the river terrace <br />material at the base of the existing slope. <br />] Rocky Mountain Geotechnical has been retained to perform the <br />following functions: <br />1. Analysis of existing stability conditions in the portal <br />j areas and access road area where existing conditions imply the <br />J present bench portal and access road configuration on the <br />1 existing slope. <br />2. Analysis of the impact of the proposed construction and <br />slope treatment on existing stability conditions for the <br />operational case. <br />3. Analysis of the impact of proposed reclamation conditions <br />on existing stability conditions. <br />I 4. Formulation of appropriate recommendations pertaining to <br />a proposed renovation of portal areas and the access road area <br />I along with recommendations pertaining to proposed new <br />construction based upon available geotechnical data and results <br />of analyses. <br />3 <br />
