<br /> <br />As noted above, coal fines and coal/dirt mixtures generated during the railcar <br />unloading/truck haulage operation described by TR-06 will be used to backfill the cut area <br />immediately adjacent to the facilities area. Broken concrete will also be used as <br />backfill material. These waste materials will be placed in the bottom of the cut area and <br />covered with a minimum of four (4) feet of suitable backfill material to prevent <br />contamination to groundwater regime and minimize any adverse off-site impacts. <br /> <br />HGTI will receive coal from the Twentymile Coal Company (Twentymile) for truck haulage to <br />the off-site customer. Results from column leach test conducted by Twentymile indicate <br />that the coal is not an acid forming material. There are no acid or toxic forming <br />materials in the permit area. <br /> <br />Rail to Trails <br /> <br />In 2020, HGTI, under the operation of Peabody, entered into an agreement with the Town of <br />Hayden to convert the Rail Spur South of Highway 40 and the Rail Loop to a recreation <br />area. In doing so HGTI will not be reclaiming these areas and no backfilling or grading <br />will be done. HGTI installed a parking lot across from the Hayden Safety Center for <br />recreationalist looking to enjoy the trail system. All topsoil piles will be left in place <br />as well as the two permitted ponds. HGTI has changed the land use of this area to <br />recreation and intends to release this area from the bond. Once the area is release form <br />the bond HGTI plans to donate the land to the Town of Hayden for the use of recreation. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />PR-02 2 Revised 11/2021
