A copy <br />will also be sent to the Water Quality Control Division. All samples taken will be analyzed for <br />dissolved and total recoverable metals for Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd, Mn and Fe. A field pH will be taken as <br />well as field measurements for flow. <br />Reporting <br />SGC will submit annual reports for this project starting with finalized engineering drawings <br />prior to starting onsite work. Once all reclamation activities are complete, a final report will be <br />submitted. Reports will be sent to the Division of Minerals and Geology as well as the Water Quality <br />Control Division. The report will include activities to date as well as planned activities for future years <br />work. <br />Budget <br />SGC will fund this project. <br />Remedial Goals and Objectives <br />Reduction of low pH, metal laden waters flowing into Burrows Creek by: <br />1) Restoring hydrologic regime to near premining conditions. <br />2) Reduction of acidity in the headwaters by isolating or limiting abilities of waters to react <br />with pyrite and other sulfide minerals. <br />3) Reduction of exposure to waste material by snowmelt, rainwater. <br />4) Visually reclaim area to accepted standards. <br />Contingency Plans <br />Should the concept of hydraulic seals not be practical after engineering studies, SGC will <br />consult with the Division of Minerals and Geology for other possible solutions. If an acceptable <br />system can be arrived at, SGC will install such a system. <br />Catchments will be provided in order to prevent impact to the Animas River during <br />excavation. <br />Legal Right to Enter and Conduct Activities <br />SGC has not contacted the property owner. Contact will be initiated when SGC and WQCD <br />have reached substantial agreement on offsite remediation projects. No work will commence until <br />proper permission is granted. <br />Owners: Phillip Bennett <br />
