Clark January 28, 1994 <br /> 10 Tymber Trail <br /> Deland, FL 2724 <br /> RE: Sunnyside Gold Corporation Portal Closure. <br /> Dear Mr. Clark: <br /> Thank you for your interest in the activities at the Sunnyside Gold <br /> Corporation near Silverton. Also, I apologize for the delay in <br /> responding to you letter. I believe the major concern you stated <br /> has to do with the company having to meet water quality standards <br /> and the attempt to meet those standards by installing concrete <br /> bulkheads. While the Division of Minerals and Geology shares your <br /> concerns over the potential loss of future mining, we have no <br /> control over the operator having to meet water quality standards. <br /> The water quality requirements are the result of the Federal and <br /> State Water Quality Control Acts. Also, compliance with water <br /> quality standards established by those Acts is through the State <br /> Water Quality Control Division in the Colorado Department of <br /> Health, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. <br /> The role of the Division of Minerals and Geology has been to act as <br /> the agency responsible for the engineering review of the concrete <br /> bulkheads that the company has proposed as a solution to their <br /> water quality dilemma. <br /> If you have any other questions that we can address about the <br /> engineering end of the issue, please feel free to write us. <br /> If you have additional concerns over the water quality standards I <br /> recommend that you contact the Water Quality Control Division. <br /> Sincer ly, <br /> H. Bruce Humphries, <br /> Minerals Program Supervisor <br /> cc Allen Sorenson <br />
