confluence with Elkhead Creek <br /> Segment 13f, Trout Creek below <br /> Fish Creek <br /> Segment 13c, Trout Creek above <br /> Fish Creek <br /> Segment 13b, Foidel Creek <br /> Segment 13a, Trout Creek to Fish <br /> Creek <br /> Long term historical monitoring <br /> data from the stream segments <br /> indicate the iron numeric standard <br /> is frequently exceeded and the <br /> lead and manganese standards are <br /> occasionally exceeded. Premining <br /> data indicate these exceedances <br /> usually are unrelated to areas <br /> covered by active mining permits. <br /> Typical flow patterns were <br /> exhibited in Foidel Creek at Site <br /> 008, 800, and 14, located <br /> immediately downstream and <br /> upstream from the Foidel Creek <br /> Mine respectively. Foidel Creek at <br /> Site 008 is fed by surface runoff <br /> and coal spoil leachate springs on <br /> the historical Eckman Park/Energy <br /> Fuels coal mining area. <br /> Spoil leachate from Eckman park, <br /> carried in the channel of Foidel <br /> Creek to Trout Creek, is a <br /> suspected major source of the <br /> high sulfate concentrations <br /> observed in Trout Creek at Site <br /> 1005 in 2010. CWQCC Regulation <br /> No. 33 indicates Trout Creek Site <br /> 1005 is subject to a 10 mg/l total <br /> recoverable iron standard and a <br /> contingent 250 mg/I sulfate <br /> standard (applicability of the <br /> sulfate standard is contingent on <br /> actual or potential domestic water <br /> use in the stream segment.) The <br /> sulfate stream standard was <br /> exceeded in 2010 at Site 1005. <br />
