| Comments | I noticed orange water seeping out of the mine on the 5th. This continued for several days. The earliest I was able to get over there to sample was the evening of the 7th. This is a high visibility sample point right by a road, right by a mine. The sample point was taken in between where the water comes out of the mine opening, before it joins the roadside ditch, which then goes under the road and empties into the Powell. |
