EPA, Region VIII submitted comments on the proposed <br /> settlement and on the proposed permits that are a part of that <br /> settlement. Several of those comments related to the planned <br /> injection of alkalinity into the mine pool after closure of the <br /> valves on the hydraulic seals. Comments related both to the pH of <br /> the mine pool and to the applicability of the Underground Injection <br /> Control permitting process. In order to respond to those comments <br /> and to avoid any delays in the project scheduled to begin in mid- <br /> June of 1996, SGC would like to resolve any technical issues as <br /> well as permit questions promptly. <br /> Enclosed is the revised work plan for the mine pool injection <br /> of alkalinity. This is the work plan that will be part of the <br /> remediation projects permit which Colorado will issue. <br />
