Spring_and Seen Survey <br />The spring and seep survey was conducted in August this year in accordance with the approved plan. <br />Spring flows have been variable over the historic monitoring period and are generally small, having only a <br />localized importance to wildlife or livestock. There is no evidence at this time that mining activities have <br />reduced or impacted the springs in the area. The 2001 water year was marked by extended dryness during <br />all months and is the second consecutive year of low precipitation. <br />Summary <br />Monitoring frequency compliance was not good in 2001 (see NOV CV-2002-010). Surface water quantity <br />and quality changes are small to non-existent, and due to the possibility of only limited discharge, surface <br />water impacts are not anticipated. Ground water quantity impacts are not apparent. Processing activities <br />should have only a minimal impact on ground water quantity and quality. Flooding of the workings <br />continues at the rate estimated in the permit. <br />If you have any questions, please call me. <br />Sincerely <br />Kent orham <br />Environmental Protection Specialist II <br />cc: Ron Thompson, Peak Project Mngmnt <br />Dan Hernandez, DMG <br />
