The main purpose of the inspection <br />this month was to verify transducer readings IN Phase I high volume pumps utilizing a M-SCOPE. After discussions with Mr. <br />Mark Vanoni and Tim Comer, it was determined that at the levels the reading were on 6/5/09, to completely shut down all <br />the pumps might not be a good idea. Tim suggested that he will discuss the plan with upper management and let DRMS <br />know when it will be the optimum time to conduct such a test. In lieu of the testing as desired, DRMS AGREED TO HAVE <br />CC&V PROVIDE THE MONTHLY TESTING LOGS THEY CONDUCT UTILIZING THE M SCOPE FORM March through June 5t" <br />The report was sent via a mail the same day. <br />Continued the Inspection to Phase I pregnant solution area, the electricians who routinely measure the levels said that <br />shutting the pumps down should have no detrimental impact to the ponds to measure and verify the levels. Operators <br />were maintaining pump # 1 at the time of the inspection and verified the calibration procedure each month. <br />The following readings were collected from the high and low volume transducers for Phase I. High Volume Pump <br />transducer # 1 was recorded at 34.0, Transducer # 2 was at 40.2 and # 3 was at 39.8. The piezometer reading was 52.0. Low <br />volume transducer # 1 was recorded at.13 and # 2 was at.10 <br />Inspected Phase II,III & IV leach pads and recorded the following readings from the High and Low volume Transducers. <br />Phase II &III High volume solution collection transducer # 4 was recorded at 14.1 # 5 was at 12.8 and # 6 was at <br />Pizemeter reading for the pond was recorded at 27 .9. Low volume # 1 was at.16 and # 2 was at.34. <br />Phase IV high volume solution collection transducer # 7 was recorded at 32.7 # 8 was at 38.9 # 9 was at 34.7 the pipe was <br />recorded at 34.4 <br />Inspected the external pond, it was holding some water. Low volume transducer readings for the pond were recorded at <br />13.0 for #1 and 10.0 for # 2. <br />Inspected the under drain all lower ponds were holding water from the recent storms the area received. None were <br />discharging. Both the south under drain r inch pipes were discharging reflective of the wet weather the area experienced <br />the past few weeks. <br />On 6/10/09 while in the area with Eric Crosby of the IMP program was notified about shortage of and failure of pump # 3 . <br />It was being replaced at the time of the inspection. Used the M. SCOPE to measure the levels and recorded a reading of <br />46.6 feet. Mr. Jodi Keel supervisor of the crew said the failure occurred around 2:30 a.m and the other two pumps kept the <br />levels under control. He said the expect the pump to be up and running by the end of the work day. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME: MR TIM COMER <br />OPERATOR: CC&V <br />STREET: P n Rnx 191 <br />CITY/STATE/ZIP: \/TCTnR.
