We are also submitting the attached Contingency Plan <br />as required by the Mined Land Reclamation Boazd by permit conditions #5, 6 and 7. Attached is <br />an application fee check for $150.00. <br />The requested Technical Revision to the approved permit consists of changing the locations of <br />the Phases of the mining and adding two Phases. To help develop the required Contingency Plan <br />the phases of the approved mining operation were shifted and changed to accommodate the need <br />to allow continued groundwater flows through the permit azea and downgradient to the Swift <br />Ponds for a portion of the life of the mining operation. The attached Exhibit C, Mining Plan <br />map, shows the new proposed phases. The new phasing does not change the proposed total <br />disturbance at any one time. <br />Tlie Contingency Plan (condition #5) was developed during a series of discussions between <br />ourselves, Connell and Mr. Swifls' representative, Mr. John Andrew. The plan that is attached <br />with this letter has been provided to Mr. Andrew and Mr. Swift. Several revisions have been <br />coordinated between all the parties. <br />The Contingency Plan consists of monitoring information as it relates to the phases of the mining <br />operation, with critical points for determining impacts to adjacent properties. The attached <br />Contingency Plan details [he required monitoring of the two sites. Also attached is an aerial <br />photo showing the location of the four additional piezometers on the Swift property (cardition <br />#6). These piezometers have been surveyed in and elevations established for the purposes of the <br />moni [ori ng. <br />Shown on the Exhibit C map is the location of the pre-settling pond with dimensions and a detail <br />~~~he~o~rd3~~s re~rired ~t~i~ $~azd as condition # 6441hBOeXrigtDrg eppSulte1200 Loveland, CO 80536-8855 <br />11990 Gran • w e • nver, [:t <br />(303) 452-6611 • Fax (303) 452-2759 (970) 461-9884 • Fax (970) 613-1177 <br />
