tions. Some concerns were also raised about the viability of 

 the proposed reclamation design. During the summer of 1985, 

 some modifications were made in the reclamation design, and 

 the various parties agreed to delay reclamation at the site 

 until the Superfund Feasibility Studies (FS) are completed. 

 To expedite the process, it was agreed the Colorado Tailings 

 will be designated as a separate "operable unit" within the 

 Butte/Silver Bow study area, and the FS for this unit will be 

 completed in May, 1986. 



FUTURE ACTIVITIES ; It is anticipated that actual reclamation 

 activities at the Colorado Tailings will commence in the 

 summer of 1986. All activities will be closely coordinated 

 with the Superfund activities at the site ( see Study 4.3).
