The recycle system has been operational since September 1989 , but <br /> to-date a steady-stato laater balance has not been reached. The <br /> reason: for this is part mechanical, and part metallurgical . The <br /> system installed is controlled from the mill and because of the <br /> complex electrical circuitry involved operational problems have <br /> been experienced. With the aid of the manufacturer these <br /> problems are being corrected. The metallurgical problems are <br /> being solved and the amount of recycle water being used has been <br /> increased from a starting point of 30 percent to the rate of 85 <br /> percent of daily consumption during this period. A table showing <br /> recycle water usage by month is included in Ap�e_ndix- A as <br /> required by Stipu-lation 13 of TR-09. <br /> Planned 1990 activity for Tailings Pond #4 includes the <br /> following: <br /> 1) Planting of the outside berm with the "Mountain Mix" seed <br /> mixture (seed mixture analysis included in Appendix A) <br /> specified in the permit for borrow areas. This mix will be <br /> used over the one specified for tailings because of the <br /> earthen berm and tailings cover placed on the outside slope <br /> in 1989 . The area to be seeded will be approximately 13 . 5 <br /> acres. <br /> 2) Placement of the drainage net if construction of the beach <br /> has evolved to the point where the drainage net can be <br /> placed. Knight Piesold and Co. will be evaluating the <br /> current design of the drainage net prior to placement . <br /> 3 ) Work toward increasing the quantity of recycle water used <br /> during the upcoming year . <br /> Tailings Pond No. 3 Area - Plate No. 3 <br /> Tailings Pond No. 3 was used as a spill catchment for the <br /> tailings booster pump located at the site. <br /> Plans for 1990 at this site is to grade the borrow area adjacent <br /> to Pond #3 and try to establish vegetation in the borrow area and <br /> along the banks of tailings Pond No. 3 . The seed mix to be used <br /> is the "Mountain Mix" specified in the permit for this area. <br /> Tailings Pond No. 1 - Plate No. 3 <br /> Tailings Pond #1 was used for solid waste storage and disposal <br /> during the 1.989 reporting year . <br /> Planned activity for 1990 includes spraying the pond with dust') <br /> suppressant to control. wind erosion. / <br /> -5- <br />
