1.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
• This Spill Response Plan ("SRP") is to be used by CC&V Team Members (all employees) of the
Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company (CC&V) at its Cresson Project Operations, located in
the Cripple Creek Mining District of Colorado. The procedures and policies described herein applyto
the activities of all CC&V Team Members and to other persons on-site under CC&V supervision or
contract: Distribution of this Plan is to be restricted to CC&V employees, contractors; and applicable
government agencies/organizations.
It is CC&V's policy to prevent releases to the environment of petroleum products and- hazardous
substances that may pose a threat to human health and/or the environment. Any releases that do
occur and which are not in compliance with applicable Federal and Stafe requirements expressed i,n
site-specific permits or applicable regulations must be appropriately contained, remediated, recorded
and reported.
The purpose of this SRP is to provide guidance to protect water quality through containment of
.potential soil and water contaminants. The SRP assesses the potential for contaminant releases,
describes the controls to prevent contaminant releases, and provides instruction for responding to
contaminant releases. Federal and state reportable quantities ("RQs") are used to determine agency
reporting and remediation requirements as appropriate.
