Tom Bird, GCC Energy 29- Nov -2013 <br />C -1981 -035 / TR -20 PAR Page 11 of 12 <br />Permit Maps <br />1. Map Kung I -007 Operation Plan & Surface Features <br />2. <br />3 <br />4. <br />a) Please identify on this map the various features discussed in the permit text, <br />specifically the Fan Bench, the Tipple Bench, and the Shop Bench. The location of <br />the proposed West Waste Bank is identified as a "Coal Storage Area" on this map. <br />Please clarify in the maps and text whether this area is intended to be used for <br />"disposal" or "storage" (or both) of coal mine waste. <br />b) The contour lines are not labeled with elevations. <br />c) The portal locations should be identified on this map. <br />d) The topsoil borrow area is shown, but the map should also show the cover material <br />stockpile area. <br />e) This map should be updated to include the outline of the proposed final configuration <br />of the valley -fill Refuse Pile coal mine waste disposal area. <br />Map King I -016 West Waste Bank Design <br />a) There is a circular cymbal with an "X" inside that may denote culvert inlets. Please <br />add this symbol to the Legend. <br />b) As mentioned previously, it may be that the "Reach 6" ditch is intended to function as <br />a 100 -year 24 -hour upland diversion for the West Waste Bank disposal area, but the <br />permit does not clearly indicate that this is the case. The ditch as shown on this map is <br />not consistent with the location shown on Map King 1 -016A. <br />c) The proposed coal mine waste disposal area is identified as "West Refuse Pile" on this <br />map, whereas the term "West Waste Bank" is used in the title block and the permit <br />text. Please use consistent nomenclature when referring to this structure. <br />d) The portal locations should be identified on this map. <br />Map King I -016A West Waste Bank Design <br />a) This map shows a cross section of the proposed disposal area. As mentioned in 2b, <br />above, the Reach 6 ditch should be located uphill of the waste bank, and not <br />constructed upon coal mine waste. <br />b) Please label the proposed slope (e.g. 2 to 4 %) of the top surface of the pile. <br />c) Please label the slope on the face of the pile, e.g. 2.5h:1v. <br />Map King 1 -011 Final Contour <br />This map was not revised for this application, but it will need to be submitted. It should <br />incorporate the final proposed configurations of both the West Waste Bank and Refuse Pile <br />coal mine waste disposal areas. <br />
