'• Ground Water Data -Ground water monitoring sites comprise one up dip and two <br />down dip shallow alluvial wells and are briefly described below (See Exhibit ZC for <br />location): <br />A-6 Well (A-6) -located south of the mine along Moffat County State Highway <br />13 and represented on the Surface & Ground Water Sampling Sites Map located <br />in Exhibit 2C. Monitoring has occurred from 1984 to 2006. <br />• North Good Springs Well (NGSW) -located along Moffat County State Highway <br />13 and represented on the Surface & Ground Water Sampling Sites Map located <br />in Exhibit 2C. Monitoring has occurred from 1989 to 2006. <br />Gossard Well -located within the rail loop facility. Access to this well is through <br />Colowyo and represented on the Surface & Ground Water Sampling Sites Map <br />located in Exhibit 2C. Monitoring has occurred from 1983 to 2006. <br />GENERAL TRENDS <br />Colowyo currently samples each surface water site for a variety of quality parameters. Of <br />all the pazameters that are analyzed for, several key indicator parameters aze identified. <br />These aze lab pH, lab conductivity, TDS, sulfate, calcium, iron, magnesium, sodium and <br />• flow rate. Statistical analysis is completed and illustrates historical trends for each <br />parameter. See graphs for the trend lines in Exhibit 2A. <br />Surface Water Data -The RZ value for linear regression is indicated below. <br />Site Id Lab <br />H Lab <br />Conductivi TDS Sulfate Calcium Iron Magnesium Sodium Flow rate <br />cfs <br />NUGSC 0.0 0.0133 0.0734 0.0761 0.0448 0.0011 0.0413 0.1052 0.0266 <br />LGSC 0.0121 0.0964 0.1529 0.0006 0.0025 0.0001 0.0067 0.1368 0.0428 <br />LTC 0.0191 0.0972 0.0489 0.0006 0.0147 0.0001 0.0011 0.0436 0.1028 <br />Summary of the indicator parameters for each surface water site is provided in the <br />following tables. <br />• NUGSC: <br />• <br />Parameter Mean dea Range Max.
