dumped in final position but should be distributed by blading
or dozing in a manner to insure that voids, pockets, and
bridging are reduced to a minimum.
Any noncoal wastes, such as timber and brattice cloth,
which are incorporated into the pile should be located near
the central portion of the pile, away from the toe or outer
slopes of the pile because of their potential for low shear
strength and settlement. The amount of such materials incor-
porated into the pile should be limited to Limit the potential
for settlement of the pile.
The surface of the waste pile should always be maintained
at a slope of more than 5 percent to prevent ponding of water
on the surface and the potential of seeping of the surface run-
off into the pile. During winter months, snow should be peri-
odically removed from the temporary pile surface prior to
placement of the waste material.
Inspections by a suitably qualified registered profes-
sional engineer will be required during important stages of
the site preparation and construction of the pile. The engi-
neer should ensure that all construction recommendations are
complied with and inspect the pile for any potential hazards
or instability. He should prepare a written report subsequent
to each inspection and submit it to the mine management and
all appropriate regulatory agencies.
lde recommend that inspections be made at the following
•
critical times:
o Subsequent to topsoil removal and foundation
preparation.
o At three month intervals during construction of
the pile. ,
