CO 81635 International Telephone +1 (970) 285-6500 <br />General Facsimile (970) 285-6393 <br />Tuesday December 23, 2003 <br />ENV. 265.03 <br />Kent E. Walter <br />Field Manager <br />Bureau of Land Management <br />White River Resource Area <br />73544 Highway 64 <br />Meeker, Colorado 81641 <br />RECEIVED <br />DEC 2 6 2003 <br />Division of Minerals & Geology <br />Dear Kent: <br />Enclosed with this cover letter is the November 2003 monthly production report for American <br />Soda LLP which includes the ground water monitoring data for October 2003 and what <br />November 2003 ground water data we have currently received from ACZ Laboratories. The <br />reason for mentioning the ground water data is that we had committed to providing this data as <br />soon as it was available to help the agencies in their evaluation of any affects that may have <br />occurred due to the level increase in well 21-4DX. <br />Also included is a copy of correspondence with the EPA concerning MIT issues with well 20-12 <br />and the plan to P&A this well with a modified P&A plan which incorporates the addition of a <br />TDR Cable to be used as an enhancement to the Subsidence Monitoring Program. American <br />Soda is requesting the concurcence of the BLM on this modified P&A Pian and the use of the <br />TDR Cable as part of the Subsidence Monitoring Program. <br />I would also like to reference another correspondence enclosed which discusses the proposed <br />corrective actions for wells 20-14, 20-02, 21-15 and 20-11. As indicated in the letter to the <br />EPA, American Soda plans to depressurize and P&A wells 20-14, 20-02 and 21-15 during the <br />first quarter of 2004. This action will prevent any future effects on the dissolution zone <br />associated with the operation of well 21-15 and since 20-14 and 20-02 are in such close <br />proximity to well 21-15, there will be no question of any influence by wells 20-14 and 20-02 <br />since they will also be Plugged and Abandoned. Well 20-11 will be further evaluated after <br />these other wells are plugged to determine if it is feasible to bring it back into operation or to <br />P&A it also. <br />We are also in the process of installing a new continuous level probe in monitoring well 21- <br />4DX which will be connected directly to the DCS System and will give a continuous read out <br />with alarms in the control room so operators can react quickly to any changes that may occur. <br />Delivering a Crystal Clear Advantage <br />www.americansoda.com <br />
