(BMRI) - San Luis <br />DMG Permit No. M-88-112 <br />Tailings Area Construction Activities <br />Week of October 25, 1993 <br />Dear Mr. Oehler: <br />During the week of October 18, 1993, construction activities <br />were limited to final shaping of the East dike, rough <br />spreading of liner base material on the east slope, <br />placement of approximately 2 acres of liner cover material <br />on the North dike, and stockpiling of liner cover material <br />in the borrow pit. Since BMRI has voluntarily suspended <br />construction activities on the embankment lift, the <br />stockpiled embankment fill material was used to upgrade and <br />provide an MSHA berm adequate for haul trucks on the 620' <br />crest road along the south side of the facility; this <br />activity was simply re-arranging the construction <br />sequencing. <br />The liner contractor was off-site; Serrot did not return to <br />the site as earlier expected due to lack of availability of <br />liner material. BMRI has submitted a request to the <br />Division to upgrade the liner material from 40 mil VLDPE to <br />50-60 mil VLDPE and awaits the Division response to continue <br />liner installation. Both the Division and BMRI continue <br />work towards bringing on-line a third party construction <br />monitor. <br />The following is a summary of construction activities for <br />the week of October 25, 1993: <br />-Complete the final shaping and liner <br />placement for the East dike area. <br />-Continue stockpiling and placement of <br />on the north side of the facility. <br />-Pending weather conditions and liner <br />the liner contractor will tentatively <br />October 26. <br />base material <br />liner cover material <br />material availability, <br />resume activities on <br />A SU/151I>IARY Oh U.ATTLF M!J(INfAIN GOLD COMPANY <br />P.O.
