Disposal of Excess Spoil <br />As discussed under the heading of Production Methods and Equipment in Section <br />2.05.3, Colowyo has constructed an overburden disposal structure known as Streeter <br />Fill. During the early operation, overburden had to be placed into the Streeter Fill so that <br />sufficient working area could be developed prior to the placement of subsequent <br />overburden into the mined-out areas. <br />Additional information concerning the Streeter Fill is set forth in Exhibit 12, Experimental <br />Practice Information. In the initial five year permit term, the Streeter Fill was permitted as <br />an Experimental Practice. In 1986, the Experimental Practice designation was <br />terminated. However, in the interest of continuity, information regarding Streeter Fill is <br />still located in the Experimental Practice Section. <br />Two additional pits will be developed within the permit boundary at Colowyo. One of the <br />pits will be developed in Sections 15 and 16, south of the existing operation and the <br />other pit, defined as the West pit, will be developed in Section 4. <br />2.05-35 <br />September 20, 2002 <br />RN-OQ <br />CF 4.1.1.3 <br />
