| Environmental Factors | THERE WERE NO TAILINGS OR DISCHARGING ADITS ON-SITE. THERE WAS ONE FILLED SHAFT DISCHARGING APPROXIMATELY 4 GPM WITH A PH OF 3.08. CADMIUM, NICKEL, AND ANTIMONY EXCEEDED MAXIMUM CONTAMINANT LEVELS. AN ADIT DISCHARGE FROM THE DANNY T MINE, UP-SLOPE FROM THIS SITE, FLOWED THROUGH WASTE ROCK #4 PRIOR TO DISCHARGING INTO GALENA CREEK. THIS DISCHARGE EXCEEDED THE MAXIMUM CONTAMINANT LEVELS FOR ARSENIC, CADMIUM, COPPER, NICKEL, AND ANTIMONY. THERE WERE NO OBSERVED RELEASES DOCUMENTED ON GALENA CREEK FROM THE WATER SAMPLES (THE CREEK HAS UPGRADIENT SOURCES). GALENA CREEK EXCEEDED CADMIUM AND ANTIMONY MAXIMUM CONTAMINANT LEVELS BOTH UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM FROM THIS SITE. THEREFORE, THESE EXCEEDANCES ARE NOT DIRECTLY ATTRIBUTED TO THIS SITE. THERE WERE TWO OPEN ADITS AND ONE PARTIALLY OPEN SHAFT (SIX FEET) ON-SITE THAT WRE CLASSIFIED AS HAZARDOUS MINE OPENINGS. |
