2.05.6(6) <br />2.05.6(6) Subsidence Survey, Subsidence Monitoring, and Subsidence Control Plan <br />(a) An inventory of all structures and renewable resource lands which exist within the <br />proposed permit and adjacent area. <br />Numerous structures are located within the proposed permit and adjacent area along <br />old State Highway 133. The structures are associated with the old King Mine and a <br />few private homes and outbuildings. The Fire Mountain Canal and Deer Trail Ditch <br />are also located along the old State Highway. Since these structures are <br />geologically below the coal seam to be mined, they cannot be affected by <br />subsidence in the traditional sense. However, structures below the coal seam to be <br />mined may be damaged by landslides or rockfalls activated by subsidence. <br />The Hughes' cabins are located along Terror Creek in the central portion of the <br />mining area. The Operator's Hubbard Creek fansite is located on the eastern edge of <br />the permit boundary. There are five houses /cabins located west of Stevens Gulch <br />Road. Turkey Track Ranch owns three cabins in the N/2 of Section 1, John Morrell <br />owns a home in the S/2 of Section 1 and Barbara Chambliss owns a home in the S/2 <br />of Section 12 all in T1 3S, R92W, and are shown on Map 27. <br />Numerous springs and ponds are located in the permit and adjacent area. <br />Groundwater within the formation could be considered a renewable resource. A few <br />decreed water rights are located within the permit boundary and adjacent area. The <br />Pitkin Mesa Pipeline Company has a 6" pipeline (aqueduct) that runs parallel to <br />Steven's Gulch, bisecting the far Western edge of the permit boundary. <br />Portions of Hubbard Creek, Terror Creek, and Stevens Gulch are within the permit <br />boundary and adjacent area. The Bruce Park Dams are considered to be within the <br />adjacent area. A landslide exists along the west side of the Terror Creek Reservoir <br />to the northwest of the western dam abutment. The Operator understands the <br />landslide initially moved during the early to mid 1980s. <br />Terror Ditch lies entirely outside the limits of mining and is not within the permit area. <br />Additionally, a portion of the power line which runs in a north south direction in the <br />Terror Creek drainage is within the permit boundary or adjacent area. <br />PR -13 2.05-132- 08/12 <br />
