e. Fill slopes will be rounded or reduced and shaped to conform the site to adjacent <br />terrain and to meet natural -drainage restoration standards; <br />f. Cut slopes will be shaped to blend with the natural contours; <br />g. Terraces will be constructed as necessary to prevent excessive erosion and to <br />provide long-term stability in cut -and -fill slopes; <br />h. The regraded area will be reclaimed in accordance with the approved reclamation <br />plan; <br />i. Unless otherwise authorized by the DRMS, all road -surfacing materials will be <br />removed, hauled or conveyed and disposed under 4.11.4. <br />j. The Northeast Perimeter Haul Road is also in the disturbed area and therefore <br />should not need to meet the design criteria of Rule 4.03.1(3), however, since the <br />area has been reclaimed, an alternative demonstration to the design criteria of <br />Rule 4.03.1(3) is given below. <br />K. Alternative Demonstration to the Design Criteria of Rule 4.03.1(3) for the Northeast <br />Perimeter Haul Road (January 2016 - No Longer Applicable) <br />This demonstration is written by Greg Lewicki, P.E., with over 28 years of coal mine haul road <br />design, construction, permitting, and reclamation experience. <br />The plan view and profile of the road on Map 2.05.3(3)-8 The Northeast Perimeter Haul Road <br />was first started in 1993. At that time, the road was installed from Station 0+00 to approximately <br />Station 30+00. In subsequent years, as mining continued to the west, the road was also extended <br />west to its crossing of 2700 Road, which was started in the year 2002. The total road length is <br />6600 feet. The road was installed by the following sequence: <br />1. stripping topsoil from the surface area <br />2. placement of 1' to 2' of compacted fill in lifts adequate for good compaction (using heavy <br />loaders and dozers) and then compacted further with heavy mine trucks <br />3. placement of 4" of gravel on the surface which was then compacted with very large mine <br />trucks <br />Section 2.05.3(3) Page 23 April 2017 (MR -104) <br />
