Site Reclamation Activity <br /> _ 4/95 - 3/96 <br /> Page 6 <br /> 5) visual inspection for subsidence and survey control points. <br /> Actual subsidence monitoring was not done due to the late <br /> clearing of snow and finding that the survey control points <br /> had been damaged. To resume monitoring will require <br /> reestablishing the control points from SGC's triangulation <br /> network. It was SGC's opinion that additional monitoring was <br /> not useful but this has not been approved. Therefore, SGC <br /> will reestablish the control and continue monitoring unless <br /> DMG approval to discontinue monitoring prior to this work <br /> being done when the snow clears on triangulation points. <br /> Planned activity for 1996 includes; <br /> 1) refilling from the stockpile any subsidence of the Lake Emma <br /> backfill. <br /> 2) monitoring and maintenance of the planted areas. <br /> 3) reestablishing survey control in the basin to monitor <br /> subsidence points above the open pit highwalls if DMG believes <br /> it is necessary. <br /> 4) construction of safety barriers around or over a historic <br /> stope on the north side of the permit area. This work was <br /> tentatively planned for 1995 but the work schedule did not <br /> allow it. <br /> 5) potential use of the site for alkaline injection as submitted <br /> in TR-19. Although this is not planned for 1996 it may happen <br /> because of unforeseen difficulties in operation of the Terry <br /> Tunnel alkaline injection. <br /> TAILINGS POND 14 - Plate No. 3 <br /> During the 1995 reporting year no additional acreage was disturbed <br /> and an additional 7.90 acres were placed in the reclamation in <br /> progress category. <br /> Reclamation activity at this site consisted of; <br /> 1) usage of this site to contain material removed from the <br /> American Tunnel settling ponds, Terry Tunnel settling ponds, <br /> historic Lead Carbonate tailings and the American Tunnel waste <br /> dump. <br />
