• April 2008 - March 2009 <br />Page 4 <br />MONITORING - Water Quality <br />Included in Appendix A is water quality data for; <br />1) Mayflower Millsite area <br />a) Animas River above (AR3.5) and below (AR4) complex. <br />2) American Tunnel area <br />a) Cement Creek above (CCl) and below (CC2) complex. <br />b) Springs in the area of the now reclaimed waste dump <br />(ATSl, ATS2). These springs no longer flow from their <br />original sites because of the waste dump reclamation and <br />are no longer sampled. <br />3) Requirements to monitor Eureka Creek between Sunnyside Basin <br />and the Terry Tunnel were removed from the permit in 2008 <br />by approval of TR-30 and this site is no longer <br />monitored. <br />• MONITORING - Discussion of Water Quality Monitoring Results <br />1) Mayflower Millsite area <br />The Animas River monitoring results continue to exhibit <br />increased zinc and manganese concentrations between upstream <br />and downstream monitoring points although the differential for <br />zinc appears to have been reduced as a result of the completed <br />diversions and reclamation projects. <br />2) American Tunnel area <br />Cement Creek monitoring shows metals' concentrations are <br />similar between the points with some elevation between the <br />upstream and downstream points. <br />The seep ATS2, originally from the toe of the American Tunnel <br />waste dump, has either relocated or dried up. The seep ATSl <br />appears to have disappeared or relocated due to the <br />reclamation of the waste dump. <br />• <br />
