u:__ _~.- -- ---- -- -- - - - Mr. Eldon St rid -2- February 2, 1983 4. The sediment pond spillways must be completed and riprapped as indicated in the plan. 5. Unless pr•everrted by snovr cover, all cut and fill slopes should be seeded and mulched inr~nediately to provide for vegetative stabilization during the life of ttre operation. The proposed final seed mixture would be acceptable for interim stabilization without the three woody species and yel]ow sweetclover. The topsoil stockpile should also be seeded and mulched. Second, a complete application for a permit must be submitted to the Division, prior to further operations at the site, with the exception of items 1 through 5 above. Rule Z.Ob.IU. (Coal processing plants and Support Facilities Not Located within the Per~riit ilrea) requires that "in addition to ... other applicable requirements of these rules, the operatioru will be conducted in compliance with Rule 4.z8." Rule 4.Z8 addresses operation and reclamation activities, roads, sediment control, water rights, air pollution control, fish and wildlife protection, topsoil and re vegetation, and prime farmland. Based on these requirements, the nature of the operation and previous discussion between Division staff and representatives of Ter°ror Creek Company, the permit application should address, to some extent, all of the requirements of Rules 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06.8 and 2.06.10. Uetailed information will need to be provided for pond and ditch sizing calculations and reclamation costs. Hir quality and NPDES Permits should be included in the application. The SCS soil description for the Progresso loam should also be included in the application. Based on field observation by Brian Munson and myself, analysis of areal photos, and previous alluvial valley floor determinations for the (forth Fork of the Gunnison; the Uivision's preliminary opinion is that the Terror Creex Loadout has been constructed on an alluvial valley floor. Based on information presently available, the Division would make the following findings for lands within and adjacent to the permit area: Unconsolidated streamlaid tleposits ho]diny streams are present. 2. There is sufficient water to support agricultural activities as evidenced by the existence of flood irrigation in the area in question. If the applicant is not in agreement with the Division's informal opinion that the loadout is situated within an alluvial valley floor; detailed hydrologic and geologic information as specified by Rule 2.06.8(3)(b) would be required.
