Meteorological and air quality monitoring program to support several efforts during the mine development phases: environmental assessments, impact analyses, and documents required by NEPA; meteorological and air quality data to be processed and used as input for AERMOD dispersion modeling; and air quality baseline data and AERMOD analyses in support of an application to the Pinal County Air Quality Control District for air permits.

This report summarizes meteorological measurements collected at the Resolution Copper Mine monitoring system. The purpose of the monitoring program is to provide the measurements necessary to establish existing meteorological conditions at the proposed site of the Resolution Mine in support of a future air quality permit application.

This plan describes the procedures followed by RCM for the EPS activities to prevent, control, and mitigate releases of oil and petroleum products to the environment at its RCM EPS located near the Town of Superior, in Pinal County, Arizona.

A bat survey was conducted on the approximately 1,224-hectare Federal Parcel, in the Tonto National Forest. The purpose of this survey was to determine which bat species could be confirmed present on Parcel.

Various baseline biological surveys and studies were conducted in and around where project features will be located. The goal of this report is to present results of surveys in the Study Area for: 1) riparian tree species, 2) pools and runs in the streambed, 3) fish species, 4) amphibian species, and 5) aquatic snake species.

This technical memorandum was prepared to summarize the results of a long-term aquifer test conducted at Resolution Project hydrologic characterization well HRES-4. Well HRES-4 is completed in the Apache Leap Tuff aquifer near Oak Flat, in the upper Queen Creek drainage basin of eastern Pinal County, Arizona.

At HRES-19 and HRES-20, the primary target drilling depth was the contact between the Tertiary Apache Leap Tuff and the underlying White Tail Conglomerate. During drilling operations, data was collected to better characterize the hydrogeologic conditions within the Apache Leap Tuff. The target depth was reached at HRES-19, although the depth to the White Tail Conglomerate was shallower than expected. The White Tail Conglomerate was not reached at HRES-20 due to technical issues encountered while drilling.

This report is an addendum to several previous reports that include detailed analysis and discussion of hydrochemical sampling results for surface water and groundwater in the Upper Queen Creek/Devils Canyon (QCDC) study area.

The purpose of this study is to quantify climbing resources and to assess potential losses for the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and to help identify needs for potential mitigation. Aside from a climbing resources inventory, this memorandum also provides background information related to climbing resources, including a description of areas within the Queen Creek climbing area.

This catalog has been prepared to summarize available information for selected springs and seeps in the Upper Queen Creek and Devils Canyon watersheds. The springs and seeps included in this catalog were selected based on proximity to planned facilities as proposed by Resolution Copper for the Resolution mine project. Version 2.0.
