Sazicrt ~ 2.05.3 <br />The principle spillway is an 18-inch discharge culvert with riser with the lowermost <br />• discharge orifice set an elevation of 6,127 feet. Because Elk Creek is culverted <br />through the entire Elk Creek support facihties area, the Pond D discharge culvert <br />will tie into the existing 9-foot diameter Elk Creek culvert southeast of the comer of <br />the pond. The emergency spillway, at elevation 6,134 feet, is an open channel <br />emptying to a drop inlet and 12-inch culvert, which ako ties into the existing Ells <br />Creek culvert. Design information for Sedimentation Pond D is provided in Exhibit <br />2.05-E3, Drainage and Sediment Control Plan, and the pond configuration u <br />illustrated by the Sedimentation Pond B Map, (Map 20.5-M5D). <br />E. East Yard Sedimentation Pond -The East Yard Sedimentation Pond is l«ated at <br />the base of the hillslope halfway between the Elk Creek facilities area and the <br />Sanbom Creek Mute portak and north of the Sanbom Leek Mtne haul road and <br />overland conveyor. This pond provides drainage and sediment control for the East <br />Yard area, including the East Yard storage and coal st«kpile areas. The Eas[ Yard <br />Pond is a fully incised pond in a natural ground with a bottom elevation of 6,084 <br />feet. Pond interior sideslopes are at 3H:1V. The pond can be dewatered through a <br />4-inch gated trickle tube at elevation 6,085 feet. Design information for the East <br />Yard Sedimentation Pond is provided in Exhibit 2.05-E3, Drainage and Sediment <br />Control Plan, and the pond configuration is illustrated by the East Yard <br />Sedimentation Pond Map, (Map 2.05-MSE). <br />F. Substation No. 3 Sedimentation Pond -The Substation No. 3 Sedimentation Pond <br />is 1«ated on the north side of old Highway 133 approximately two miles east of the <br />Sanbom Geek Mute portals. This pond provides drainage and sediment control for <br />the Substation No. 3 and the GGulch ventilation shaft areas. The Substation No. 3 <br />• Pond is an incised pond with a bottom elevation of 6,180 feet. Pond interior <br />sideslopes are at 2HIV. The pond can be dewatered either through a 2-inch gated <br />trickle rube at elevation 6,181 feet or through an open slot emergency spillway at <br />elevation 6,182.8 feet. Design information for the Substation No. 3 Sedimentation <br />Pond is provided in Exhibit 2.05-E3, Drainage and Sediment Control Plan, and the <br />pond configuration is illustrated by the Substation No. 3 Sedimentation Pond Map, <br />(Map 2.05-MSF). Design calculations and the pond design configuration were <br />reviewed and revised, as appropriate, to address increases in the disturbance area <br />ass«iated with construction of the GGuk h Ventilation Shah. <br />G. Upper Hubbard Gulch Sedimentation Pond - The Upper Hubbard Gulch <br />Sedimentation Pond u 1«ated adjacent to Hubbard Creek and downslope of the <br />Upper Hubbani Gulch disturbance area providing drainage and sediment control for <br />thu partially reclaimed area. The Upper Hubbard Gulch Pond is a partially incised <br />pond with a bottom elevation of 6,348 feet. Pond interior sideslopes are at 3H:1V. <br />The pond can be dewatered through either a 4-inch gated trickle rube at elevation <br />6,349 feet or an open slot spillway at elevation 6,351 feet. Design information for <br />the Upper Hubbard Gulch Sedimentation Pond is provided in Exhibit 2.05-E3, <br />Drainage and Sediment Control Plan, and the pond configuration is illustrated by the <br />Upper Hubbard Gulch Sedimentation Pond Map, (Map 2.05-MSG). <br />H. Sanbom Geek Mrtte Dewatering Pond -See previous disctusion under "Mate <br />Water Storage and Discharge." <br />Sedimentation ponds have been designed and coastmcted in compliance with applicable regulatory <br />requirements including applicable provisions for foundation preparation, embankment constnrcuon, <br />(avoidance of process waste and other deleterious materials and compaction) embankment <br />protection, and installation of non-clogging discharge structures. Ponds are rrupected on a regular <br />basis to assure that they continue to function as designed and to detect any indications of significant <br />PR04 2.05-35 Revised August 2000 <br />
