5. Permit page 2.05 -12 discusses the `Mine Water Handling System ", which pumps water from the No. 5 mine to the surface (for discharge through pond 5P -7 to the Williams Fork River). In late 2010 the mine pump went down and was scheduled to be replaced late in the spring of 2011. The new pump may change the pumping rate volume from the Mine No. 5 workings. Please review the pumping information contained in the "Mine Water Handling System" section, beginning on permit page 2.05 -12, to ensure that it provides the correct information for the newly installed pump. Response The specific Permit text discussion relating to the No. 5 Mine Well has been reviewed and revised; as appropriate, to reflect replacement of the well pump in 2011.
