MANAGEMENT <br />:-Minrec-, Inc:; North ThompsorFCreek-Mines--- -------- <br />-- ------Re-- <br />2009 Annual Hydrologic Report <br />Permit C-81-025 <br />Dear Mr. Stark: <br />Please accept this letter as the 2009 Annual Hydrologic Report for the North Thompson <br />Creek Mines. This report is for the 2009 calendar year. <br />The Operator applied for a final bond release on October 5, 2006. It appeared the final <br />bond release would become final during the year so no hydrology monitoring was <br />performed. By a decision dated December 22, the Division partially approved a phase I, II <br />and III bond release. <br />The monitoring program no longer includes the requirements of Colorado Discharge Permit <br />System CO-0029599 since it was terminated by the Department of Health effective March <br />14, 2005. There was no discharge from the sediment pond during the year. <br />By letter dated April 9, 2008, the Department of Health directed the Operator to apply for a <br />discharge permit. By letter dated April 28, 2008, the Operator submitted an application-for <br />renewal of its terminated discharge permit. A new or renewed discharge permit should be <br />issued and effective early in 2010. <br />Please call if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />J. E. Stover, P. E. <br />Consulting Engineer
