.~. . <br />barren liquor would saturate before returning up the nearest set of perforations and up <br />• through the annulus. Heat limitations due to transfer of heat between barren and <br />pregnant streams, precluded adequate mining with this arrangement. The down hole <br />mining temperature was probably low enough that limited mining was possible. <br />h. During December, a change in the quality of the raw water entering the plant <br />was noticed. Appropriate government agencies were notified and mitigation effort started <br />immediately to stop any further decrease in water quality. Water going into cavity #2 for <br />pressure maintenance was stopped and a set of temperature logs were run on several <br />of the wells in the field which could possibly be in contact with the A-Groove aquifer. <br />i. A second b<~gging system was installed along side the existing bagging <br />system. The new bagging equipment has a double filling system to increase output by <br />100% over the single filling system previously in use. <br />+. j. During 1994, a total of 46,908 tons were produced during the year against <br />projected budget of 60,000 tons. <br />k. A forced evaporation system was built for the waste pond to accelerate the <br />tt rering of its level. Drilling and production operations had increased the rate of water <br />bef.:ring the pond greater than the natural evaporation rate. <br />w, I. The installation of the pond leachate pump systems was completed in early <br />The systems remove the leachate of water ffom between the two liners at both the <br />a C ss and waste ponds. <br />casir <br />hoper <br />• 12 <br />
