Domestic Water A water well has been installed at the New Horizon North Mine and can be <br />seen on Map 2.05.3(3)-1. This well will be plugged during final reclamation efforts. Completion <br />and reclamation diagrams can be found in Appendix 2.05.3(3)-2 along with the well test report. <br />Solid Wastes Solid waste will be picked up by the local waste disposal contractor for disposal in <br />the Montrose County Sanitary Landfill. The landfill is privately owned and operates under the <br />regulations mandated by the State of Colorado and Montrose County. Solid wastes not suitable <br />for disposal at the landfill will be transported to and disposed of in suitable, licensed facilities <br />under the applicable Federal and State regulations. When practicable, solid wastes will be <br />separated for recycling. <br />Fuel Storage Two above -ground fuel tanks will be used for diesel storage. The diesel tanks will <br />be located at the fuel dock proximal to the equipment ready line to facilitate fueling for trucks <br />and loaders. The tanks will be will be protected from spills by being double walled or being <br />surrounded by earthen, concrete, or HDPE lined structures. A Spill Prevention, Control, and <br />Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan has been developed for the New Horizon North Mine to provide <br />requirements for spill prevention, preparedness, and response. A copy of the SPCC Plan will be <br />maintained at the New Horizon Mine Office. <br />Coal Handling Structures The NHN Mine has no coal handling structures. The coal from the <br />mine pit is hauled in highway trucks to the power plant for processing and use. <br />Support Facilities and Utility Installations All support facilities used in connection with the <br />operation of the mine, including but not limited to, mine buildings, equipment storage facilities, <br />sheds, shops and other buildings will be designed, constructed or reconstructed and located to <br />minimize or control erosion and siltation, water pollution and damage to public or private <br />property. <br />Surface and Subsurface Man -Made Features Map 2.05.3(3)-2 shows surface and subsurface <br />man-made features within, passing through, or passing over the permit area. Topsoil and <br />overburden stockpiles information is given in Section 2.05.4. <br />The 2nd Park Lateral Irrigation Pipeline location is shown on Map 2.04.7-9. The pipeline is <br />located outside the ditches for Pond NHN-001 and outside of active mining disturbance for the <br />NHN Mine. During activities located close to the pipeline, NHN will exercise care to minimize <br />damage or disruption to service in accordance with Rules 4.04(5) and (6). At mine road crossings <br />the pipeline is buried for protection. The Pond NHN-001 ditches serve as a barrier between the <br />pipeline and active mining disturbance, providing limited access to the pipeline. Finally, blasting <br />activities will be a sufficient distance away such that they will not adversely affect the pipeline. <br />Section 2.05.3(3) Page 4 April 2016 (PR -01) <br />
