The quality of the discharge is presented in a table in Appendix II. The <br />quality of the discharge from the mines varied very little from prior years. The flow was <br />similar, conductivity and TDS increased slightly during the year. <br />The following table presents arithmetic averages of flow and quality measurements taken <br />at Outfall 001. Outfall 001 is the discharge point for the passive water treatment system. <br />* Calculated based on 1.419 ratio of conductivity to TDS. <br />The units for the figures in the above table are; flow (gpm), pH (standard units); <br />conductivity (umhos /cm); total dissolved solids (mg /I) and iron (mg /I). Iron was measured <br />potentially dissolved through 2005. The current discharge permit requires iron to be <br />measured as dissolved and total recoverable. Dissolved iron is presented in the table. <br />SPECIAL ANALYSIS <br />None <br />WET TESTS <br />Not required by discharge permit. <br />Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) <br />AHR <br />PAGE 3 <br />DMRs are submitted quarterly to the Colorado Department of Public Health and <br />Environment with copies to the Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety and are included <br />herein by reference. <br />
