• 3.0 PROJECT PLAN <br />The Trapper Mine projecu consists of diverse and interrelated activities designed to efficiently mine coal <br />and promote reclamation activities. <br />Section 3.0 discusses the major components of the Trapper Mine project. Emphasis is placed on the <br />function of each component and its interrelationship with other activities. Also presented is a general <br />description of the activity and how it complies with applicable existing regulations. <br />Trapper Mine is a surface: mining operation and does not control or generate any underground workings. <br />Therefore subsidence will not be an issue with Trapper's operations. However, located west of <br />Trapper's permit perimeter are underground workings maintained by Empire Energy Corporation. <br />Effects of their operations have been addressed within the current Empire Energy mining permit. <br />Section 3.1.8 of this application discusses surface mining near underground workings. Trapper Mine's <br />mining operations in the Colt and Browning Pit areas (Map M10 series) were within 500 horizontal feet of <br />the abandoned underground workings. Section 3.1.8 provides evidence that no impact will occur on <br />these underground workings due to Trapper's surface mining activities. <br />I • <br />u <br />3-1 <br />1pu~a~ ~, <br />
