DMG Permit No. M-88-112 <br />February Monthly Sampling <br />Dear Mr. Dillie: <br />All required sampling was completed during the month of February. <br />The NANO/RO water plant operated intermittently during the month. A total of 10,063,100 gallons <br />of water (30.88 acre feet) was treated and discharged into Rito Seco during the month of February. <br />All surface water stations were inspected and RS-4 and RS-6 were found to be dry. <br />Vacuum on the lysimeters was verified and no water was present to sample. <br />When we checked the piezometers on the main embankment of the tailing impoundment on 26 <br />February 2001, the piezometers were dry or contained below 12 inches of water. <br />The two west pit piezometers were measured for depth to water on 22 February 2001, with the <br />following result BF-1 was 28.98 fr and BF-2 was 32.62 ft. The other piezometers in the West Mine <br />area were also checked with the following result: PW-] was 29.37 fr, PW-2 was 29.56 ft, PW-3 was <br />37.90 ft and PW-4 was 31.82 ft. <br />The underdrain was measured at approximately 36 gpm <br />The collection pond leak detection system was pumped and sampled on 26 February 2001. The leak <br />was approximately 47 gpad. <br />Note: T{te collection pond leak defection system roar frozen last month and no smnple nor <br />measurement was token. This month we pumped t{te santp fo near dryness. <br />The seeps remain dry. <br />The depth to water at BF-4 was at 26.19 feet on 2/28/01. <br />A SUBSIDIARY OF BATTLE MO UNT.AIN GOLD COM19PAN}' <br />P.O.
