See attached location and site maps. <br /> Identification of the Waters of the United Status Potentially Affected <br /> Cunningham Creek and Animas River at and above confluence. See attached site map. <br /> Physical Description of Conditions <br /> An old tailings pond, pre Reclamation Act, is exposed to rainwater, stormwater and <br /> groundwater springs under and near the tailings. Exposure of these materials to water should be <br /> controlled. There is a total measured estimate of 64,000 cubic yards. <br /> Description of Project <br /> Sunnyside Gold Corporation(SGC)will provide sediment catchments below the tailings to <br /> minimize sediment transport to the river during excavation. The tailings would be removed from <br /> contact with flowing water and stormwater and placed in the Mined Land Reclamation permitted <br /> tailings pond on the property. The excavated area would then be revegetated. No additional <br /> reclamation work will be done on the permitted facility. The catchment traps will be removed, the <br /> site regraded, soil amendments added, seeded and mulched. <br /> Work Plan <br /> 1) Build catchments. <br /> 2)Relocate tailings. <br /> 3)Remove catchments and regrade area. <br /> 4) Add soil amendments as needed, seed and mulch. <br />
