' Seepage from the ~ er will prevent drawdown •f water levels
in wells east of .~e river
There are no sub-irrigated areas on the property,
therefore, the drawdowns resulting from lowered lake levels
will n t impact any areas containing a naturally high
water table.
Drainage
The flood plain and flocd~::ay limits will not be affected
upstream of the site. Within the site, the mining and reclam-
ation operations will alter the flood plain and floodway
limits. The alteration will be negligable as the operatign
begins and progresses to ~;~~ ultimates limits (Figure 6).
Flood velocities will increase and dept}is will decrease
as the overbank flood goes over the sout' lake'_ southern
bank. The chance for erosion may be great because of the
large difference in ele~~ation between the ground level and
the lake surface. If the lake bank extends too close to
the site's southern boundary, it may induce more overbank
flood flow, which may adversely affect the damage potential
for other properties. As planned the lake is located
sufficiently to the north to prevent this from occuring.
The overbank flood profile will be relatively flat
for the length of the lake. Henderson Road will continue
to control flood elevations at their previous levels. North
of Henderson Road, no change in the flood plain or f'_ood:.3y
limits will result form the mining or rec'_amation operations.
Erosion may be a problem at the north lake's southwest
bank as flood water passes over it.
