V <br />Proposed Timeline to Abate NOV CV- 2012 -003 <br />June 1 thru June 5, 2012: Trautner Geotech, LLC will initiate field work at the King <br />I Mine site which will take 3 to 5 days to complete. Tom Bird of GCCE will notify <br />Marcia Talvitie prior to initiation of fieldwork to allow her to observe the project as it <br />is performed. Status reports will be sent to Ms. Talvitie on completion of each phase <br />of the project. <br />June 6 thru June 20, 2012: Geotechnical laboratory testing is expected to take 7 - <br />10 days business days to complete. Logs will be prepared of subsurface conditions <br />including free water elevations, moisture content, dry density, sieve analysis, direct <br />shear strength, falling head permeability, and standard proctor. Test results will <br />determine structural stability and potential under drain requirements. <br />June 1 thru June 3, 2012: CDS Environmental Services will collect samples of the <br />coal mine waste from the site and prepare them for chemical analysis. Analysis will <br />determine the potential of the coal mine waste to produce toxic or acid forming <br />materials. Near surface material will be analyzed for plant growth nutrients to <br />determine the minimum amount of nontoxic plant growth medium to be added as <br />cover. <br />June 4 thru June 18, 2012: Chemical analysis is expected to take about 10 <br />business days to complete. <br />June 20, 2012: CDS Environmental Services expects to produce a final report by <br />June 20, 2012. <br />July 20, 2012: Trautner Geotech will produce a final report by July 20, 2012. <br />July 31, 2012: If the results of the geotechnical and chemical studies determine that <br />leaving the existing material in place is feasible, GCC Energy will submit Technical <br />Revision TR -20 to address the DRMS regulations governing the placement of the coal <br />mine waste. The Trautner Geotech and CDS Environmental Services reports will be <br />incorporated into the Technical Revision. Design documents, as necessary, will be <br />submitted as part of the Technical Revision. <br />August 31, 2012: If the results of the geotechnical study and/or chemical study <br />determine that leaving the existing material in place is not feasible the existing <br />material will be moved to the currently approved refuse pile by August 31, 2012. <br />August 1 thru September 30, 2012: CDRMS reviews TR -20, public notice is <br />published, public comment periods occur, modifications to the original design are <br />submitted if necessary, final approval is issued by CDRMS. If CDRMS finds that TR- <br />
