Resources, Inc ~-San Leis •.'•1ire. nnnr p,.r,nit?~!c. A•!.8g_I !2 <br />Per our telephone conversation, this letter notifies the Division of a couple incidental circumstances that <br />occurred at the San Luis Mine last week. The first circumstance involves the on-site sampling of the <br />post detoX. We are required to sample the post detox once every 5 - 9 days for on-site analysis. The last <br />past detoX sampling was Thursday, January 18. Since then, there have been unforeseen problems in the <br />Illill. The trill Ilas not been operational since. We Ilad hopes to have the mill operational again oll <br />January 27, but as of today that date has been postponed to January 30. Once [he mill anc all of [he <br />systems are operational and functioning properly a sample of the post detoX will be taken. The tailings <br />pond and collection pond continue to be sampled daily regardless of downtime. <br />Also, during the January 1996 quarterly water sampling of Well M-I, the one-foot PVC bailer came <br />loose from the rope and fell to the bottom of the well. We have purchased a new bailer and Well M <br />will be sampled today. <br />Sincerely, <br />Sally ayes iser <br />Environmental Engineer <br />cc: Anne Baldrige <br />Dan Robertson <br />P.O.
