Section B - Rule 4 <br />Roads — Rule 4.03 <br />A. Haul Road <br />The applicant has provided relevant information concerning the pre -1995 <br />constructed haul road at King I that shows the road meets the performance <br />standards of Rule 4.03.1. The applicant has provided a design of the haul road <br />for the King II Mine that indicates this road will meet the performance standards <br />of Rule 4.03.1. <br />2. The Division proposes to approve the retention of the haul road at the King I <br />Mine, depicted on Map King I-007, because it is compatible with the approved <br />post -mining land use, and a request for its retention was submitted by the <br />landowner. (4.03.1(1)(f)(i)). <br />B. Access Roads <br />The landowner has requested the retention of the access/haul road at the King I Mine. <br />Its retention is compatible with the approved post -mining and historic land use of <br />agriculture (ranching). Therefore the Division proposes to approve retention of the <br />access road. (4.03.2(1)(f)). <br />C. Light -Use Roads <br />There are no light -use roads at the King Coal Mine. <br />II. Support Facilities — Rule 4.04 <br />Information on mine support facilities is found in Section 2.05.3 of the permit and is depicted <br />on Maps King I-007 and King II -007. The landowner has requested in writing that some of <br />the buildings at the King I Mine remain after reclamation to support his agricultural <br />operation. Mine support facilities have been designed to prevent damage to fish, wildlife, <br />and property, and to control and minimize air and water pollution. No support facilities are <br />proposed for permanent retention at the King II Mine. <br />Construction of support facilities will not result in damage, destruction, or disruption of oil, <br />gas, or water wells or pipelines, or utility lines which may pass through the permit area. <br />Therefore the Division approved those construction activities (4.04(6)). <br />15 <br />
