Project Specific Information RequirementB-4 DrillingSection in ProjectProposal Report13 Describe how drill holes will be abandoned (continued). The ground is allowed to dry,and any drill cuttings arethen removed to a naturalsump in the area. Theground is re-contoured andthe hole number is markedon a wooden picket, left tomark the site. Photographsare then taken. Holes aremonitored each year, andany follow-up work that isdone is photographed andnoted.14 If project proposal involves uranium exploration drilling, discuss the potential forradiation exposure and radiation protection measures. Please refer to the CanadianGuidelines for Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials for more information.B-5 Stripping/ Trenching/ Pit ExcavationThe project does not involveuranium15 Discuss methods employed. (i.e. mechanical, manual, hydraulic, blasting, other) Section 2.4.416 Describe expected dimensions of excavation(s) including depth(s). Section 2.4.417 Indicate the locations on a map. Figure 2.1-318 Discuss the expected volume material to be removed. Section 2.4.419 Discuss methods used to determine acid rock drainage (ARD) and metal leaching Section 2.4.4, Section 2.4.6(ML) potential and results.B-6 Underground Activities20 Describe underground access. Section 2.421 Describe underground workings and provide a conceptual plan. Section 2.422 Show location of underground workings on a map. Figure 2.1-323 Describe ventilation system. Section 2.4.524 Describe the method for dealing with ground ice, groundwater and mine water Section 2.4.5when encountered.25 Provide a Mine Rescue Plan. A Mine Rescue Plan will beprovided in the draft EISB-7 Waste Rock Storage and Tailings Disposal26 Indicate on a map the location and conceptual design of waste rock storage pilesand tailings disposal facility.Section 2.4.4, Section 2.7.1,Section 2.7.2The locations for a tailingsmanagement facility andwaste rock piles arecurrently being evaluated aspart of the pre-feasibilitywork, which is expected tobe completed by summer2008.27 Discuss the anticipated volumes of waste rock and tailings. Section 2.728 Discuss methods used to determine acid rock drainage (ARD) and metal leaching Section 2.7, Section 2.4.6(ML) potential and results.B-8 Stockpiles29 Indicate on a map the location and conceptual design of all stockpiles. The location of a stockpile iscurrently being evaluated aspart of the pre-feasibilitywork, which is expected tobe completed by summer2008.
