<br />2. <br />Stipulation 17 requires the operator to submit an annual <br />reclamation report. The annual reclamation report has been <br />included in this annual hydrology report and will be forwarded <br />to Janet Binns for review. <br />Stipulations 24 and 25 deal with ash sampling and analysis, <br />which the report has also included in the AHR. Review of the <br />ash samples indicate that barium content in the bottom ash <br />sample is up from 1991, though not by a significant amount. <br />The fly ash sample remains similar to 1991's sample. <br />The data from the 1992 sampling and measurements fall within <br />the historical range of data from the same well locations. <br />Analysis of field data in the wells follows in sampling <br />sequence. Well data is contrasted to that of 1991. <br />FPW: Fire Prevention well on facility site <br />Water quality seems to be slightly increasing in the 1st, <br />2nd and 3rd quarters with TDS, Ca, Mg, Na, SO4 and pH <br />decreasing. The fourth quarter remains similar to 1991. <br />DH122: Ennis Draw well (upstream) <br />Water quality varies, with the 1st quarter TDS, SO4 and <br />CO3 up, while in the second quarter the water is less <br />alkaline. Third quarter remains the same as in 1991 while the <br />fourth quarter, water quality increases slightly. Overall, no <br />significant trends. <br />DH96: Ennis Draw well (downstream) <br />Water quality shows a slight increase in both the second <br />and third quarters, becoming less alkaline, lower pH, Na, Ca <br />and Mg. The first and fourth quarters remain similar to 1991. <br />AMW-1: Ash monitoring well for B pit <br />Water quality up in second, third and fourth quarters, <br />with decreasing TDS, SO4 and alkalinity. In the first <br />quarter, SO4 and TDS up, with decreasing water quality <br />when compared against 1991. <br />AMW-2: Ash monitoring well for <br />Remained dry.

The reason is simple; the spoils were <br />redisturbed in the spring of 1992, when reclamation of B pit <br />to ash grade began. 524,000 cy of spoil material were used to <br />
