RECEIVED <br />1.0 INTRODUCTION <br />JAN ~ 1 2003 <br />Division of Minerals and Geology <br />This report, "Deserado Mine Eighteenth Annual Hydrology Report" is submitted to Colorado <br />Division of Minerals and Geology in fulfillment of the requirement of Deserado Mine's mining <br />and reclamation permit no. C-1981-018. This report presents the hydrologic data and analysis <br />resulting from the Deserado Mine hydrologic monitoring program for the period October 1, 2001 <br />to September 30, 2002. <br />The purpose of this Annual Hydrology Report is to describe the present hydrologic conditions in <br />the Deserado Mine area in relation to the baseline hydrologic data in order to: <br />• Define trends in the hydrologic parameters. <br />• Determine what impact development of the Deserado Mine has had on the hydrology <br />of the area. <br />• Determine what mitigative measures should be undertaken in the future. <br />• Predict future impacts on the hydrology of the Deserado Mine area. <br />This annual hydrologic report has been organized into three major sections. Section 1.0 is the <br />introduction, Section 2.0 is a summary of the hydrologic data collected this monitoring year and <br />Section 3.0 summarizes observations from the monitoring program in relation to development of <br />the Deserado Mine. <br />i <br />
