reduce the possibility of coal spillage. As necessary, the operator <br />cleans areas under conveyor belts at transfer areas to minimize fugitive <br />dust. <br />The operator does utilize open stockpiles in approved, permitted areas. <br />This is done when all other storage areas have been filled to capacity. <br />When utilizing these stockpile areas, special air quality control <br />measures are implemented. These include: compaction, watering, <br />surface stabilization, and wind barriers. <br />The operator has an approved permit for coal screening in and around <br />the silo area. Special air quality control measures include: watering, <br />production limitations, and fines stockpile size limitations. <br />(2) Fish and Wildlife Plan. <br />(a) Refer to Volume I - Text, Section 2.05.6(2)(a) for a permit wide <br />discussion concerning the mitigation of the effects of mining on fish and <br />wildlife. <br />(b) See Map 7 for the layout of sedimentation controls. <br />(c) No answer required. <br />(3) Protection of Hydrologic Balance. <br />(a) Required protection information. <br />(i) The quality of surface and groundwater within and adjacent to <br />the permit area that may be affected by surface activities. <br />The operator has prepared a drainage and sediment control <br />system which will minimize changes to the surface water and to <br />the prevailing hydrologic balance in the facilities area by <br />detaining run-off in sediment ponds or treating runoff with <br />alternative sedimentation control. The sediment ponds are <br />designed to contain the run-off from the 10-yer, 24-hour <br />precipitation event. The sedimentation control plan is <br />presented on Map 7. <br />RN -07 2.05-36 03/18 <br />
