• Final contours for the Cameo Borrow Area No. 2 are shown on Exhibit 52, Tab
13. Cross-sections representing the existing and final grade are shown on
Exhibit 53, Tab 13. The area will be graded to the final grade and approximately
6" of topsoil from Topsoil pile number 1 will be distributed on the surface.
Coal Canyon Realignment
As part of the design for CRDA -2, the Coal Canyon drainage channel was
realigned to provide a more uniform, controlled flow between CRDA 1 and 2.
The four rock check dams constructed in the channel have caused significant
deposition and necessitated frequent maintenance. In order to assure the
channel is in equilibrium with the flow regime, the rock check dams were
removed and the excess sediment was harvested and used as refuse cover soil
during the 2002 reclamation project. The drainage channel was graded to an
approximate uniform grade to the cross sections presented on Exhibits 53 and
' 55. Berms located along the middle and lower sections were leveled so the
channel blends naturally into the adjacent terrain. Berms are not utilized to
provide the necessary flow capacity along the segment between the dip section
concrete structure at the upper end and the two 81" by 59" culverts at the lower:
Additionally, the Pond 6 embankment was built up and fortified with riprap. The
rock from the check dams was used for the construction of rock groups placed
on the reclaimed surface of CRDA-1 & 2 and other reclamation uses. Since
material generated from the Coal Canyon Realignment was utilized for the
• reclamation of CRDA-2, the realignment was performed concurrently with the
2002 refuse pile reclamation project.
During 2003 or 2004, work will be performed in Coal Canyon below the outlets
of the large double culverts. Scour protection will be provided at the outlet of the
Culverts. Approximately 700-feet downstream of the double culverts, a transition
zone will be installed. See Exhibit 88 and Appendix 13-2, pages Misc-13
through Misc-22 for details of the scour protection and transition zone.
Coal Canyon will be realigned during the reclamation of Ponds 6 and 10. The
channel will be lengthened by the addition of meanders as shown on Exhibit 9C.
The Coal Canyon realignment will be performed at least 3-years before the
Operator submits an associated final Phase III bond release request. Scour
protection was installed at the outlet of the upper dip section during 2002.
Roads
Most of the roads listed in Table 13-2 will be reclaimed as part of the operations
area that they are associated with. In General, each roadway will be excavated
down to the original wash bottom at each drainage crossing, and culverts will be
removed. The excavated material will be placed in road cuts or designated fill
areas adjacent to the roadway. Fill material will be placed in uniform lifts and
compacted as necessary to insure stability. The cut slopes formed at the
drainage crossings and the cut and fill slopes adjacent to the road will be
regraded and rounded to conform each site to the surrounding terrain.
