past. Shrubs will be seeded at appropriate elevations. Seeding occurs by both drill and broadcast <br /> methods. <br /> Long-Term Ash Disposal Plan <br /> The applicant continues to backfill Ashmore pit with ash from the Craig Power Plant. Ash will <br /> not be disposed in Enfield/Derringer pits, as the power plant has reduced its coal consumption, <br /> shutting down one tower with the closure of the power plant slated for 2028. The ash is <br /> approximately 60% fly ash, 20% bottom ash, and 20% scrubber sludge. A maximum of 5,250 <br /> tons per day of the waste will be disposed of at the Trapper Mine with an average of 1,222 tons <br /> per day expected. This is equivalent to an average annual volume of waste of about 231 acre- <br /> feet, after compaction. The applicant expects this waste burial process will continue for the life <br /> of the mine. Down-gradient ground water monitoring wells are in place to detect any potential <br /> degradation of the ground water due to leachate through the ash waste pile. <br /> 11 <br />
