<br />modification (technical revision or amendment, Rules 1.9 and 1.10) prior to their <br />construction. <br />13. a) The following table provides building dimensions and slab thickness for <br />the Experimental Test Mine facility and the Piceance Site (commercial) initial <br />processing facility. <br />The only permanent structure at the Experimental Test Mine facility is the <br />Process Building, a wooden and metal structure, 83.5 feet by 43 feet by 24 feet <br />high. The Process building pad at the Experimental Test Mine required four <br />spread footers 8 feet by 8 feet by 8 feet deep. <br />Final design details are not complete for the Piceance Site at this time. <br />Commercial phase buildings will be constructed using spread footers poured to a <br />depth of up to 8 feet with a base typically 8 feet by 8 feet. The processing facility <br />buildings, listed separately in the 112 Permit Application, will occupy portions of <br />the 460-foot by 80-foot processing facility area. Based on current design <br />information, the processing facility will be constructed with spread footers and <br />columns. For the purposes of reclamation, it is estimated that 69 columns 1 foot <br />in diameter by 8 feet deep and ten spread footers 8 feet by 8 feet by 8 feet deep <br />will be required to support the slab. The administration building will require six <br />spread footers 8 feet by 8 feet by 8 feet deep. Because footer dimensions are <br />based on current design information, specific dimensions and the number of <br />footers could change somewhat upon completion of final design details. <br />Table 1 Building Dimensions. <br />Location Descri lion Len th (ft) Width (ft) Slab <br />Test Mine Process Buildin Slab 43 83.5 6 inches <br />Test Mine Boiler Pad 40 10 2 feet <br />Test Mine 81ock for Coolin Pond Pum 2 4 4 feet <br />Piceance Site Administration Buildin 80 30 6 inches <br />Piceance Site Processin Facilit 460 80 6 inches <br />Piceance Site Substation 200 200 6 inches <br />Piceance Site Packa e Generator 30 15 6 inches <br />Piceance Site Outdoor Switch Gear 48 14 6 inches <br />Piceance Site Nitro en Pad 30 20 6 inches <br />Piceance Site Fuel Stora *e Pad 12 12 6 inches <br />Approximately 10,000 cubic yards of soil would have to be moved to backfill and <br />grade the Experimental Test Mine facility pad at the time of final reclamation. <br />Construction of the ponds at the Experimental Test Mine facility required <br />excavation of 28,700 cubic yards of soil; therefore, it is estimated that 28,700 cubic <br />yards of soil would have to be moved to reclaim those ponds. <br />i r •YY~rn.., nnw..n YwY^r 10 <br />1.nMl:uY1~> Wwn M~nr,b Yrv~~ <br />~m,v~>.1~ LLI' <br />
