(BMRI) - San Luis <br />DMG Permit No. M-88-112 <br />Tailings Area Construction Activities <br />Week of November 1, 1993 <br />Dear Mr. Oehler: <br />During the week of October 25, 1993, construction activities <br />were limited to final preparation of the compacted soil <br />liner along the East dike, installation of approximately 8 <br />acres of synthetic liner by Serrot, placement of <br />approximately 2 acres of liner cover material on the North <br />dike, and stockpiling of liner cover material in the borrow <br />pit. BMRI has confirmed the Division's verbal approval to <br />upgrade the liner material from 40 mil VLDPE to 50-60 mil <br />VLDPE and waits formal written approval. The Division and <br />Water, waste, and Land visited the site on October 28. <br />Construction of the main embankment has been voluntarily <br />suspended by BMRI until the third party contractor is on- <br />line. Continuing the construction of the embankment this <br />fall is critical to the operation of the San Luis Project. <br />The following is a summary of construction activities for <br />the week of November 1, 1993: <br />-Complete the composite liner construction, weather <br />conditions pending. <br />-Continue stockpiling and placement of liner cover material <br />on the north side of the facility. <br />Settlement marker information is enclosed. The markers <br />continue to be surveyed daily. The survey results indicate <br />that the tailings are extremely stable with no differential <br />settlement. <br />Sincerely, <br />'I~Nonn~ ~'~` <br />Alana L.
