DMG Permit'NbWIR~@b~ f~ology <br />Monthly Sampling <br />Dear Mr. Dillie: <br />All required sampling was completed during the month of September. Enclosed are analytical <br />reports from Acculabs for the recent bi-weekly, monthly and quarterly sampling periods as specified <br />in the April 1992 Abatement Plan. Analysis that have not been received will be forwarded to you as <br />I receive them. <br />The NANO filtration plant is on site and has successfully completed a pilot run. The plant is fully ready <br />to operate and will be placed into service when approval is given by the CDPHE. <br />Engineering work continued on the stormwater diversion on Waste Rock "C" and a report was <br />submitted to the Division for approval. <br />Work also continued on the engineering of the proposed pipeline from the evaporation system <br />collection pond to the tailings impoundment. This engineering report will also be submitted to the <br />Division for approval. <br />All surface water stations were inspected and RS-4 and RS-6 were found to be dry. <br />Vacuum on the lysimeters was verified and no water was present to sample. <br />When we checked the piezometers on the main embankment of the tailings impoundment on <br />10/Ol /99, the piezometers were dry or contained below 12 inches of water. <br />The two west pit piezometers were measured for depth to water on 10/Ol /99, with the following <br />result: BF-1 was 14.14 ft and BF-2 was 17.65 ft. The other piezometers in the West Mine area were also <br />checked with the following result: PW-1 was 17.87 ft, PW-2 was 17.40 ft, PW-3 was 25.17 ft and PW-4 <br />was 26.82 ft. <br />The underdrain was measured at approximately 26 gpm. <br />The collection pond's leak detection system was sampled and pumped dry. The leak was <br />measured at approximately 62 GPAD. <br />A SUBSIDIABY OF BATTLE MOUNTAIN GOLD COh1PANY' <br />PO. Box 310 San Luis, Colorado 8115?-0310 (719) 672-4122 Fax (7191 67?3363 <br />
