Section 780.21 (b) Continued. <br />In accordance with the Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board <br />for Coal Mining (Regulations) Rule 4.05.13, the Annual Hydrology Reports have <br />been submitted in accordance with the Permit and provide detailed information <br />concerning the monitoring results for surface and ground water. The Annual <br />Hydrology Report for 2006 was recently submitted to the DRMS. Data provided in <br />the Annual Hydrology Reports indicate that the reclamation process has been <br />successful, that onsite impacts have been minimized and that offsite impacts have <br />been prevented. The DRMS reviewed the 2005 Annual Hydrology Report and point-by- <br />point the probable hydrologic consequences and provided comments in <br />correspondence dated April 17, 2006. <br />The request is for termination of monitoring for the mine area only. Monitoring <br />will continue at the Loadout facility. The monitoring requested for termination <br />is listed below. <br />• Surface discharge water quality monitoring from all ponds, including <br />the permanent ponds. CDPS Permit 850037 includes Ponds A, B, C, D, E, <br />F and G which correspond to discharge points 301 - 305, 321 and 322 <br />respectively. <br />The monitoring frequency (Loadout only) for the remaining postmining discharge <br />will continue to be weekly during March, April, May and June and monthly during <br />July, August, September and October. As per TR-19, the surface water sites at the <br />Loadout are analyzed for postmining parameters as required by the CDPS permit <br />which include: <br />Postmining Parameters <br />• Flow, MGD <br />• Settleable Solids, mg/1 <br />• PH, s.u. <br />• Oil and Grease, mg/1 <br />The most recent surface water monitoring stations in the monitoring program are <br />shown on Map 48, Mine Areas Monitoring Stations and Map 36, Kerr Tipple Area <br />Postmining Topography. Monitoring requirements are summarized by Table 61, Kerr <br />Mine Area Hydrologic Monitoring Schedule. <br />TR-23 780-109a Revised June 2007 <br />
