69 respectively. Figures 70 through 79 provide graphical representations of water levels and selected wafer <br />• quality parameters recorded at each site. For the most part, typical patterns were observed. At site 69 <br />however (see Figure 76), an unusually low flow level was noted to occur throughout the monitoring period. <br />Identified water quality variances include only elevated bicarbonate and total recoverable cadmium levels <br />in August at site 301, both followed by a return to normal values. <br />Four additional surface water sites required monitoring under the TCC program in 1994. Foidel Creek sites <br />14 and 304, and Fish Creek sites 307 and 305. Montlily water levels were to be obtained from MarchJearly <br />April through September. These monitoring requirements were met during 1994. Tables 31 through 34 <br />provide summaries of the 1994 Water Year data collected at Trout Creek surface flow site. <br />Site 14 is also monitored under the CYCC program as a surface water flow site requiring 12 flowJfield <br />parameter visits and four water quality sampling instances. Consequently, data beyond that required to fulfil] <br />the TCC requirements is presented on Table 31. Sites 304, 307, and 305, are monitored in wnjuncdon with <br />alluvial wel]s 008-AV-1 and 2, 006-AZ-3, and 008-AU-3 respectively. Figures 25, 31, and 35 provide <br />graphical representafions of data collected at these sites. 1994 Water Year data for these sites is presented <br />as Tables 32, 33, and 34. The historical summary of flow rate data for selected surface sites is presented <br />as Table 35. This table also provides flow summary information for discharge sites 62, 109, and 115. <br />• <br />NATURAL SPRING MONITORING <br />One natural spring (20-14) located in the vicinity of proposed future underground mining areas required <br />semi-annual flow/field parameter and water quality sampling during 1994. Monitoring at the site was <br />initiated in 1987 and flows have historically been minor (see Figure 80). Conductivities historically <br />exhibited by the spring are presented as Figure 81. A statistical water quality summary for the site is <br />presented as Table 36a. No additional data was collected during 1994. TCC has identified this omission <br />and will take appropriate measures to ensure the omission is not repeated. <br />SPOIL SPRING MONITORING <br />Two spoil spring sites, 7 and the 303 series, require monitoring under the approved program at TCC. Spoii <br />spring 7 is monitored in accordance with the approved spoil spring monitoring program. The spoil spring <br />monitoring program was initiated in 1986 and is conducted annually. In accordance with the approved plan, <br />the annual mine wide survey is conducted during May with springs measured for flow and field parameters. <br />If a spring is discharging at or above 35 gallons per minute it is monitored for the next year in accordance <br />• with the monitoring plan. During the 1993 Water Year, spoil spring 7 flow was apparently measured in <br />excess of 35 gpm and consequently additional monitoring requirements were triggered. 1994 Water Year <br />-9- <br />
