This technical memorandum was prepared to summarize results of drilling, construction, equipping, and testing at hydrologic test well DHRES-06. The well was installed to characterize hydrogeologic conditions in the deep groundwater system south of the South Boundary Fault and to provide a monitoring point for the deep groundwater system during dewatering of existing mine workings. Monitoring data obtained from DHRES-06 will be incorporated into the RCM hydrologic monitoring program.

This technical memorandum was prepared to document results and analysis of a 60-day pumping test conducted at hydrologic test well HRES-07.

This technical memorandum was prepared to provide an interim summary of data collected at wells DHRES-01 and DHRES-02. Deep hydrogeologic test wells DHRES-01 and DHRES-02 were drilled and constructed during the period May 2 to September 10, 2008. In order to measure hydraulic heads at specific elevations in the Apache Leap Tuff (Tal) and Whitetail Conglomerate (Tw), vibrating-wire pressure transducers were grouted in the annulus between the borehole wall and conductor casing at wells DHRES-01 and DHRES-02.

This table summarizes hydraulic conductivity estimates from testing of wells and boreholes during hydrologic characterization activities conducted by Montgomery & Associates (M&A) during the period 2004 through 2012. To date, results of hydraulic testing and analysis have been provided in individual reports or technical memoranda for wells or groups of wells completed over the course of the 8 year period from 2004 to 2012.
