III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII <br />898 <br />STATE OF COLORADO <br />Roy Romer, Governor <br />DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES <br />MINED LAND RECLAMATION DIVISION <br />DAVID C. SHELTON, Director <br />DATE: March 30, 1987 <br />T0: Gregg Squire \ l <br />FROM: Jim Pendleton "`"~~ <br />RE: Eagle Mines' mi-Ann Subsidence Report (February, 1987) <br />(Permit No. - <br />I've reviewed the above reference subsidence monitoring report. No observable <br />impacts to topsoil stockpiles, stockwatering ponds or surface access roads <br />were detected during the visual survey. The survey monitoring results are <br />consistent with previous results. <br />In general, the observed maximum vertical subsidence (6.47 feet at Monument <br />R-12) and maximum angle of draw (19.25°) are consistent with the projected <br />maximum vertical subsidence of 8 feet and maximum angle of draw of 20°. <br />The survey did detect up to a foot of subsidence along Monument Row Q, outside <br />the area of predicted subsidence occurrence. The operator attributes this <br />subsidence to the presence of reclaimed surface mine spoils at these <br />locations. The operator should elaborate upon this observed subsidence <br />justification. Is it the result of consolidation of the backfilled spoil <br />alone? Or, is it the result of downslope movement of the baclrfilled spoils? <br />Has horizontal movement been detected at these monument locations? If so, the <br />operator should provide the appropriate survey data. Are any cracks evident <br />at any of these locations? <br />Please forward the applicant's response to me upon its receipt. <br />sak <br />cc: Mike Long <br />8361E <br />423 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203-2273 Tel.
