MANAGEMENT <br />The DRMS' letter dated August 8, 2013 transmitted its review of Bowie's June 2013 <br />discharge monitoring reports. The DRMS asked for verification that Ponds D and F <br />were not discharged during June. <br />Pond D was dewatered by evaporation and seepage. There was no discharge from <br />Pond D. The water in Pond F was so high in suspended solids that it could not be <br />discharged. The water in Pond F was pumped to Pond C. Bowie hauled dry coal mine <br />waste into each of the ponds, mixed the dry waste with the saturated sediment and <br />then hauled the combined material back to the coal mine waste pile. This procedure <br />was repeated numerous times in both ponds. <br />Sincerely, <br />. E, Stover, P.E. <br />Consulting Engineer <br />Cc: Bill Bear <br />
