Shelton <br />Director <br />JUL 2 8 1382 ~I~LI <br />T. J. WAINYdRI~H[ <br />RE: Technical Revision X12 to Seneca II Mine, Permit C-005-SO <br />Dear Atr. Wainwright: <br />The technical revision submitted by Seneca Coals, Ltd. has been found to <br />be complete. The revision includes a proposal to construct coal haulage <br />road F1 and a variance request from all haul road drainage requirements. <br />• 1'he Division has reviewed the proposed revision for compliance with the <br />Rules. The design of haul road F1 is in compliance with Rule 4.03.1. <br />Alternative specifications are approved for culvert spacing. The drainage <br />will be carried to existing channels. The ditches and culvert have been <br />designed to handle the 10-.year, 24-hour precipitation event. T11is design <br />should not result in an increase of erosion. Construction of the road <br />should be completed this fall. Upon completion of construction the road <br />shall be certiFied by a qualified registered professional engineer. A <br />copy of the certification must be sent to the Division. <br />The second part of the revision requests permission to intentionally <br />breach road berms which are required by the Alined Safety and Health <br />Administration. The purpose is to release the water periodically along <br />the haul road. This practice is acceptable provided that no excessive erosion <br />is created on reclaimed areas. Seneca Coals, Ltd., has committed to <br />rectify any problem that may arise. <br />• <br />
