JD -6 Mine — Drainage Design Plan 25 <br />or spillway. In contrast, the SWRP at the JD -6 Mine is designed to fully retain the 10 -year 24 -hour storm <br />and may retain even larger storms (Section 5.4), and is a dry pond for part of the year. The complete <br />capture and subsequent evaporation results in the JD -6 SWRP being effective for both dissolved, <br />suspended, and colloidal constituents as well as the settleable solids fraction. In the WinTR55 model, <br />however, the SWRP is modeled as a wet storage pond. The pond surface is set to the maximum surface <br />area of the excavated pond, at the height of the overflow outlet. Therefore, the WinTR55 model <br />conservatively predicts the maximum flow over the spillway if the pond structure were full at the beginning <br />of the storm event. Structure parameters for the existing pond condition are shown in Table 14. <br />Table 14.

The stormwater catchment is <br />currently unlined. It is recommended that the pond remain unlined, to facilitate routine maintenance and <br />sediment removal. Inspections and maintenance are performed in accordance with the Stormwater <br />Management Plan. <br />Figure 11.
