52.04 APPLICATION FOR PERM:[T FOR SURFACE OR UNDERGROUND MINING ACTIVITIES -- <br />MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS FOR INFORMATION ON ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES. <br />2.04.7 Hydrology Description. <br />(1) (a) (i)(i:i)(iii) and (iv) (Cont'd J <br />• <br />r1 <br />I.J <br />assessing the surficial hydrologic regime of <br />the entire permit area and the field data ob- <br />tained and compiled to be accurate and repro- <br />ducible, within acceptable limits. Other than <br />the areas where surface owner's consent was <br />not obtained, further investigation is not <br />necessary. <br />CWI considered seeps and springs synonymous <br />during the hydrology investigation. Many <br />ponds were presumably recharged by coil w ial <br />seepage and as such, were denoted "spring <br />fed", Within the permit area seeps are com- <br />mon, especially where coil w ial material has <br />been excavated to form storage ponds. Seeps <br />are presumably important in maintaining dis- <br />charge into storage ponds. Typical flows are <br />approximately 0.5 gallon per minute and most <br />flows infiltrate back into the ground before <br />reaching a stream. Also, these flows are in- <br />significant in terms of maintaining s[ream- <br />flow. Refer to Water Availability for Specif- <br />ic Basins in Volune SA and the hydrology <br />graphs in Volune 4, The evapotranspiration <br />demands of [he permit area and small discharge <br />of springs-seeps precludes any contribution to <br />ephemeral stream flow (refer to hydrology <br />graphs in Volune 4). <br />The areas not field investigated during the <br />1983 hydrology study are located primarily <br />within the East Roa[cap Creek watershed, parts <br />of Sections 10, 15, and 22, R.92W., T.13S. <br />(refer to Map 4-1 ). As a result of prior van- <br />dalized property and trespassing, the surface <br />owner will not allow any access to his proper- <br />ty. The areas not field investigated may be <br />characterized as typical of the permit area, <br />with no aberrations from the norm. Based upon <br />photographic interpretation, this gap in data <br />is not significant with respect to total <br />hydrologic regime of the permit area. <br />Added 12/26/84 <br />Revised 12/26/84 <br />Revised 10(12/86 <br />Revised 10/01/87 <br />29 <br />
