Jerry Daub: <br />What AmerAlia is proposing is in the area of the well field is one well drilled to the <br />dissolution surface to monitor the water level. That's basically a transducer, so you'd have <br />full time recording with probably a digital readout. We'd end up being able to measure water <br />levels at the dissolution surface in the area of the well field. <br />Paul von Guerard: <br />Would that be real time? <br />Jerry Daub: <br />Yes, that would be real time. <br />Roger Day: <br />We'd be monitoring the dissolution surface similar to the dissolution surface well at the <br />White River Nahcolite Minerals_ That one reports to the Rosemont control system. We <br />think that provides major protection. At White River, very small changes in injection and <br />recovery are observed. The water column is seen going up and down. It was very <br />responsive. We will record and observe the pressure. Abnormalities can be alarmed. <br />Dan Jackson: <br />How often is that looked at? I understand that it's probably recording, is that the situation? Is <br />there an alarm set, or how would that work in real time as far as an emergency? <br />Roger Day: <br />It can be alarmed. You've got all kinds of options with the system to alarm it. But the <br />primary thing there was a daily observation by the supervision of the mine. We'd show up <br />every morning and look at it to see if anything went up or down and make the changes. <br />Some changes you could see the effect in 8 hours, but generally it was the next day that <br />you'd see if you'd done something right or wrong, if it adequately made a response. It was <br />more of a database thing that you'd look at the data, make a decision and check it again a day <br />later. <br />Ned Banta: <br />How about recording water levels? How frequently would those be recorded? <br />Roger Day: <br />This transducer is the level indicator. That's recording the changes in the level to include in <br />the database. <br />Ned Banta: <br />Presumably you were going to save that until the computer test so some frequency could be <br />included. <br />Roger Day: <br />This is what we're here to work out. There's a monthly report that was submitted at White <br />River. <br />10 <br />
