Site Reclamation Activity April 1999 - March 2000 Page 7 2) use of the area as a staging area for projects and storage. BULKHEADS - TR-14 / TR-16 Activity on this project during the 1999 reporting year consisted of; 1) the continuation of the seep, spring and flowing adit inventory required by TR-14. Twenty percent of the sites were required to be sampled and all sites monitored for field parameters twice. SGC monitored each site twice (if flow existed) and sampled more than twenty percent of the sites during the field season. Summary sheets of the data collected and discussions of the data are included in Appendix B. 2) maintenance of the voluntary Consent Decree projects in order to fulfill the terms of the agreement and move towards final MLR Permit site reclamation (if the terms of the Consent Decree are successfully met) . The A List projects were completed and inspected by October 1997 . Sunnyside submitted three additional projects for inclusion under the Consent Decree B list projects in 1998 . These projects included work within the permit area (approved in TR-21) as well as diversion work outside the permit area. These projects were started during the 1998 report year and completed during the 1999 report year. 3) monitoring of the bulkhead in the American Tunnel for pressure and mine pool for pH, temperature and conductivity, and inspection of the tunnels and bulkheads. The mine pool appears to be at physical equilibrium. If this is the case, the 2-year monitoring period required by TR-14 will start. The mine pool monitoring data is included in Appendix A. Planned activity for 2000 includes; 1) monitoring of the American Tunnel and Terry Tunnel bulkheads and mine pool according to permit requirements. 2) monitoring and maintenance for the completed Consent Decree - Mine Remediation Projects. 3) continuation of the seep, spring and flowing adit inventory and monitoring.
