OWNERSHIP <br /> County San Juan CDPS No. CO-0027529 Date 6-17-88 <br /> Facility Name Sunnyside Gold -- American Tunnel <br /> Legal Owner Echo Bay Company <br /> Mailing Address P.O. Box 717 - 1303 Snowdon <br /> City <br /> Silverton State CO Zip 81433 <br /> Facility (Physical Location) 7 miles North of Silverton <br /> Business Phone <br /> (303) 387-5533 Emergency Phone Same <br /> II. Facility <br /> Plant Products Gold, silver, lead, copper, zinc ores. <br /> 600 Ton/day Design Production Rate 900 Ton/day <br /> Present Production Rate g <br /> Raw Materials ore. <br /> Adequacy of Materials Containment Plan (MCP) Appears to be adequate. <br /> Treatment Facility Evaluation Treatment of drainage water by pH adjustment (lime) , <br /> flocculation,' precipitation, settling in 4 ponds in series. They are presently treatinc: <br /> 3/4 of the water and blending with remaining 1/4. The facility has frequent power <br /> failures which upsets the treatment process. Additionally, the ponds appear to be <br /> full of sludge and are short circuting. <br /> Facility Evaluation vs. Permit Due to the high frequency of power failures, I <br /> recommend thatthey instal l back-up power supply. Additionally, I think improvements <br /> should be made to the ponds to prevent short circuting. Regarding the water used for <br /> showering, signs ( NON-POTABLE WATER) should be posted at taps for the workers' <br /> safety. <br />
