In the Cow Camp Creek alluvium (below NPDES 004), water quality is <br />measured at one well. Well 69 displays a decreasing TDS trend since <br />October 2004. <br />Well 68, completed in the Bond Creek alluvium (below NPDES 008), was <br />drilled along with Well 69 (see above) in 1988- Recently, it displays a <br />decreasing TDS trend (SF 0.5). <br />Well 72 is located in the Fish Creek alluvium below all Seneca II <br />discharges. This year was the first sample collected by Seneca at this <br />GWPOC well. <br />- Wadge Overburden. Well 42, located in the south central part of the <br />permit area, usually does not have enough water in its casing to sample, <br />but did have enough water the last two years. Milliequivalent data and <br />the TDS plot from previous samples have been included in Appendix C. It <br />displays a decreasing trend. <br />- Wadge Coal. Two wells are used to monitor the water quality of this <br />seam. Well 17 is located just west of NPDES 002. It displays an <br />increasing TDS trend. Well 19 is located in the southwest part of the <br />permit area. It displays a decreasing TDS trend. <br />- Wolf Creek Overburden/Wadge Underburden. Three wells are used to <br />monitor this stratum. Well 7 is located below the Wolf Creek pit. It <br />historically displayed an increasing TDS trend (SF 0.5), although <br />recently it has stabilized. Well 8P1 is located below a reclaimed <br />portion of the Wadge pit in the southwest corner of the permit area. <br />The TDS values for this well have stabilized. Well 11 is located just <br />west of the PeaCoCo Pond, below a reclaimed portion of the Wadge pit. <br />It displays a decreasing TDS trend. <br />- Trout Creek Sandstone. Well 5 was used as the potable water supply <br />for the Seneca II Mine. Due to a change in land ownership, and following <br />loss of electrical power, a sample was not collected this year.
