This will probably include <br /> the waste dump area. <br /> TERRY TUNNEL AREA - Plate No. 2 <br /> During the 1993 reporting year , no additional acreage was disturbed <br /> and no acreage was reclaimed. Activity at the site consisted of <br /> operation of the water treatment plant from late June, 1993 to late <br /> October , 1993. The water treatment settling ponds were cleaned <br /> three times during the year with the sludge being hauled to the <br /> Mayflower Mill - Tailings Pond #4 in tanker trucks. <br /> Activities planned for 1994 are: <br /> 1) annual site cleanup. <br /> 2) operation of the water treatment plant as required by the CDPS <br /> permit for the portal discharge. <br /> 3) use of the site as a loading facility for equipment and <br /> materials to be removed from the mine prior to placement of <br /> the Terry Tunnel and American Tunnel bulkheads . <br /> SUNNYSIDE BASIN (LAKE EMMA) AREA - Plate No. 2 <br /> During the 1993 reporting year , no additional acreage was <br /> disturbed . Reclamation work at the site consisted of: <br /> 1) placement of a permanent concrete seal in the Washington #1 <br /> level portal . This consisted of shotcreting a 2 foot <br /> (minimum) thick closure onto the existing gate structure. The <br /> area was then covered , graded and contoured to blend into the <br /> surrounding hillside. <br /> 2) refilling the area of subsidence over the Lake Emma hole back <br /> to grade. The fill material was obtained from the stockpile <br /> left for this purpose. <br /> 3) contouring the entire disturbed area for planting. A small <br /> area on the west side of the permitted area was not completed <br /> due to snow left over from the almost record winter which did <br /> not melt during the summer . <br />
