September 20,2022 C-1981-035/King Coal Mine LJW <br /> King II Area <br /> At the King II area all internal drainage ditches were observed, and found to be free from obstruction and flowing <br /> as designed. All internal storm water reports to the main Sediment Pond shown in Photo Six. The main pond <br /> contained minimal water and showed no evidence of discharge. The banks are well vegetated and appeared stable <br /> at the time. Recently discussions had been had with the Operator to repair a section of silt fencing adjacent to the <br /> materials storage area. The silt fence has been repaired and can be seen in Photo Seven and appears to be <br /> functioning as designed. <br /> PROCESSING WASTE/COAL MINE WASTE PILES—Rule 4.10 and 4.11 <br /> Drainage Control; Surface Stabilization;Placement: <br /> At the King I area,the lower refuse pile was observed. The pile has been graded and the northwest corner <br /> has been well compacted. The southwest end of the pile shows evidence of recent deposition of waste material <br /> that has not yet been compacted. The refuse pile can be seen in Photos Eight and Nine. Visual estimates of the <br /> grade of the pile suggest it is at or near the required grade specified in the designs of the pad. This is not <br /> considered a problem at this time as no erosional features or signs of material transport were observed. <br /> Number of Partial Inspection this Fiscal Year: 2 <br /> Number of Complete Inspections this Fiscal Year: 1 <br /> Page 3 of 8 <br />
