4.3.2 OPERATION PLAN -- LOADOUT <br />4.3.2.1 Production Methods and Equipment <br />Although the operation of the coal loadout facility involves no actual <br />coal production, only transportation, this section [corresponding to <br />Section 2.05.3(1) in the MLRB Regulations], is used to provide a <br />general description of its operation. Drawing D-2-2 should be <br />referenced to follow the discussion. <br />The facility has three major components: <br />° a truck dump and a 30-inch conveyor to the loadout <br />building, <br />° a loadout building situated to load rail cars through <br />• one drawdown point as cars pass beneath the hopper, and <br />° a rail yard consisting of athree-track, crescent-shaped <br />arrangement with a warning shed for the switch yard <br />locomotive. <br />Coal is hauled from the mine to the truck dump during two 8-hour <br />shifts. Each truck carries 25 to 30 tons of coal per trip; and with <br />the roundtrip taking almost 1 hour, approximately 12 trucks made the <br />trip daily. <br />The truck dump is located at the edge of the plateau to take advantage <br />of natural ground contours. Trucks turn and back up to dump their <br />loads into a 60-ton hopper. As the coal is .dumped, spray bars spray <br />the coal with water to minimize dust. Coal is fed out of the bottom <br />of the hopper onto Conveyor C-1 (refer to Drawing D-2-2) at 500 tons <br />per hour. Conveyor C-1 carries the coal 2,057 feet from the truck <br />dump to the top of the loadout building. <br />4-26 <br />
