discharge point has been applied for to utilize the Pond 011 site. See Attachment 2.05.3(3) -18. <br />Actual water flow velocity going into Pond 007 and Pond 011 will be controlled with adequate <br />energy dissipaters (i.e., rock riprap, geotextiles, metal or concrete energy dissipator boxes, etc.) <br />or discharged onto non - erodible bedrock material. This will minimize erosion of the pond banks. <br />Updates and modifications to the mine pit dewatering plan are described in Section 2.05.3(3), <br />subsection 6. <br />Pit dewateringwill have an insignificant impact on Pond 007, as shown in Attachment 2.05.3.(3)- <br />2. Pit dewatering will be sporadic versus continuous. The flow rate of one to two cubic feet per <br />second or less compared to the designed 10 -year, 24 -hour peak inflow rate of 123.7 cubic feet <br />per second is very insignificant. In addition, pit water high in suspended solids will be allowed <br />to set for a period of time so the solids are allowed to settle out of the water and will remain in <br />the active pit area. Only after the pit water is clear, will it be pumped from the pit into Pond 007. <br />Further more, all discharge from Pond 007 will be in accordance with applicable discharge <br />permits. <br />Pond 007 will be maintained after reclamation as requested by the landowner. The <br />demonstration that this pond retention is in compliance with Rule 4.05.9(13) is included in <br />Attachment 2.05.3(3) -16 DEMONSTRATION FOR RETENTION OF POND 007. <br />The sedimentation pond slopes will be protected from erosion where surface runoff enters the <br />pond area. <br />Monitoring for rills and gullies on the pond and other reclaimed slopes will be carried out on a <br />periodic basis; the monitoring being geared to those periods after spring snow melt and during <br />required quarterly pond inspections. <br />Occurrence of excessive rills and gullies will result in implementation of the following plan. One <br />of, or a combination of, the following options and corrective methods will be employed: <br />If it is determined that the topography of the regraded area is such that drainage is <br />concentrated in a particular area, then this area will be improved to accept the runoff. <br />In areas where no natural armoring is present, the drainage bottom or channel will be <br />reshaped, if needed. The channel bottom will either be seeded, covered with erosion <br />(Revised June 2010) 2.05.3(3) -7 <br />
