16 <br />Section 2.05 TR-76 7/25/2022 <br />stepper than 2h:1v except where there is 85% rock in the fill where the fill slopes may <br />be steepened to 1.35h:1v. The Haul Road has an overall grade of less than 10%. The <br />maximum grade on the road is less than 15%. The road is out of compliance with <br />Rule 4.03.1(3)(a) because there is an 800 foot long segment of the road that exceeds <br />10%. Steep grades on haul roads can have adverse effects on safety and the <br />environment. NECC has adopted the following rules and operating procedures to <br />mitigate safety and environmental concerns. The width of the haul road varies with a <br />minimum width of 15 feet. The road is plated with gravel. NECC plans to utilize up <br />to 30 ton capacity articulating haul trucks to haul coal mine waste to the RDA. These <br />trucks are approximately 10 feet wide and have a tight turning radius. The width of the <br />road is suitable for its intended use as long as the following rules and procedures <br />are followed. <br />Rules <br /> The RDA haul road may be used by ATV (gators), light vehicles, dozers, <br />graders and haul trucks and other vehicles suitable for road conditions. <br /> The RDA haul road may only be used by haul trucks and water trucks during <br />dry conditions (no rain or snow) and only during daylight hours. <br /> Only one vehicle is to use the RDA access road at a time. <br /> Signs must clearly be visible at the top and bottom of the haul road. The sign <br />is to show "Single vehicle on road only. Radio on channel 1 prior to entry and <br />following exit." <br /> Berms and guards on outer banks on elevated roadways must be intact (as per <br />30 CFR 77.1605(k). <br />Procedure <br /> Prior to crossing Highway 12 or entering the top of the RDA haul road (at the <br />RDA end), vehicle operators must advise radio channel I that they are entering <br />the RDA haul road. Words to be used are: "haul truck/light vehicle/gator <br />entering RDA haul road". <br /> The equipment operator must wait at least 30 seconds to allow time for a <br />response from anyone on the RDA haul road. <br /> After clearing the RDA haul road at either end, the equipment operator must <br />advise on radio channel 1 that the RDA haul road is clear. Words to be used <br />are: "RDA haul road is now clear". <br /> Any defects in the RDA haul road must be reported immediately with an <br />assessment made as to what vehicles may use the road prior to remediation of <br />any defects. <br />All vegetation material and topsoil will be removed from the design roadbed, <br />shoulders, and surfaces where associated structures will be placed. Topsoil will be <br />placed in one of the topsoil stockpiles located on site. No vegetation material or <br />topsoil will be placed beneath or in any road embankment. <br />The material for the embankment shall be reasonably free of organic material, coal or <br />coal blossom, frozen materials, wet or peat material, natural soils containing organic <br />matter, or any other material considered unsuitable for use in embankment <br />construction by the DRMS. <br />In the placement of embankment for the access road, materials will be spread in <br />layers approximately 12 inches deep before compaction, and such lifts made <br />uniformly over long stretches and for the full width of the embankment.
