Binns, Janet <br />From: W D Corley, Jr. [ajjc @att.net] <br />Sent: Thursday, August 04, 2011 1:52 PM <br />To: Binns, Janet pp <br />Subject: GEC �CL✓�d�4�^� <br />1 <br />C -I V -037 <br />Ms. Binns, <br />Thank you for meeting with us this morning. <br />I would like to put in writing my request for any help imaging the underground fire in Section 24. It would be <br />very interesting to see what OSM might be able to do with that work. <br />After you left Jack Robeda talked at length about the silt leaving the GEC site onto the adjoining property and <br />eventually going on down stream. For a little background about Jack, he was the director of the radiology <br />department at Ft. Carson Army Hospital. His concern is that the gray/black silt material probably was a close <br />formation to the coal seams, either above or below the individual seams. He is questioning the possibility of <br />mercury content in this silt, and I think he is probably correct when he says that this silt will be deposited in the <br />Pueblo Reservoir. I believe that it is important to give his thoughts some attention. So far I have not found any <br />references for maximum mercury levels, and I'm worried about the consequences in the event that mercury is <br />found or that its concentration is too high. Obviously this is an entirely different matter from any discussed this <br />morning as I was using the word toxic to just mean that vegetation would not grow on this material. <br />WD Corley, Jr. <br />
