r � <br /> Memo to Bryce Romig 2 August 4 1998 <br /> Condition No. 2, third paragraph: <br /> Specify the location of the concurrent sampling point(s) in the East Fork of the Eagle River. <br /> Condition No.2,fourth paragraph: <br /> Suggested Additional Language: if the data demonstrate-that anti degradation;type standards have <br /> been exceeded during the first three years -f reservoir releases,DMG's consideration of f na1 approval <br /> �' .' ;'.r...ehl <br /> of SR-2 will be'continued while an investigation is'conducted intd.the source of contaminants that <br /> caused the anti degradation,tYPe standards to be"exceeded. The plan for the investigation wzll be <br /> developed by Climax and subject to I3MG review and appoval..':If the investigation determines,that the <br /> contaminant source is related to operations at the Climax Mine;the,souree must tie:eliminated or <br /> mitigated in'accordance with a plan approved bp,DMG prior to SR-2 final apprgyal. <br /> Contingency Monitoring and Response Plan (Condition No.2),third bullet: <br /> Suggested Additional Language: If there insufficient reason to believe thifan emergency condition <br /> exists related to aquatic life in-the Eagle River,based either on the water guality`data,`observations,of <br /> the condition of the aquatic life;,or:other pertinent;criteria,the'DM may require Climax,toc immediate ly <br /> reduce or discontinue discharge from;the eagle Park,Reservoir such that water'guality standards`iii`the <br /> .._ <br /> stream will be met. <br /> Miscellany: <br /> 1. The second quarter 1998 water quality data for Eagle Park Reservoir has been reviewed by the <br /> DMG. The reservoir water quality continues to be very good, and is suitable for the post mining land <br /> use of developed water resources. As a result, proposed Condition No. 1 in the draft resolution can be <br /> eliminated. <br /> 2. The current decision date for SR-2 is August 31, 1998. As documented in the DMG's 7/1/98 <br /> inspection report, there are still some physical reclamation issues to be completed prior to conditional <br /> approval of SR-2. You have reported that the required reclamation work is not yet complete, and as we <br /> discussed, I will be unavailable to inspect the site from August 10, 1998 until sometime in early <br /> September 1998. In order to maintain the August 31, 1998-decision date for conditional approval, <br /> another condition could be applied to SR-2 stating that the required physical reclamation work will be <br /> completed-,on a timely basis and will be subject to inspection and acceptance by the DMG. <br /> 3. As we discussed, you will prepare another draft of the Resolution of Findings and Conditions for <br /> Eagle Park Reservoir Water Delivery and provide a copy for DMG review. The DMG did not consult <br /> with Water Quality Control on the first draft, but will seek such consultation for the second draft. Based <br /> on consultation with the Water Quality Control Division, additional modifications to the draft resolution <br /> may be necessary. Our target date for finalization of this resolution is August 13, 1998. <br />
