Re: Seneca II Technical Revision No. 11 (File No. C-80-002)
Dear Mr, Lunan:
The Division has reviewed the Technical Revision No. 11 submittal and found it
to be complete.
As we discussed by telephone on February 26, 1987, the Division has identified
the following concerns which should be addressed by Peabody Coal Company.
1. Peabody Coal Company should revise page 12-33 and Table 12-3a to
reflect the addition of the proposed diversion ditch culvert on Haul Road Cl;
2. To minimize topsoil degradation, Peabody Coal Company should commit to
replacing salvaged topsoil on reclaimed lands during the late springs, summer
and early fall. Due to the emergency nature of this revision, the Division
understands that topsoil may be salvaged during the late winter and early
spring;
3. Peabody Coal Company should clearly indicate that segregation of the A
and B/C topsoil horizons will occur in the '•'BB" topsoil stockpile;
4. The amount of Canada Bluegrass to be seeded should be reduced, and an
additional cool season graminoid species such as Green Needlegrass, should be
added to the temporary seed mix; and,
5. The amount of alfalfa to be reseeded should be reduced from 0.5 lbs
PLS/ac. to 0.25 lbs PLS/ac. This proposed rate of reseeding would be more
appropriate given current alfalfa production concerns at the Seneca II 14ine.
