Coal Stockpile - construction complete. <br />To allow adequate room for coal <br />construction and expansion, it was necessary to <br />the Middle Fork of the Purgatoire River approxii <br />for a distance of approximately 580 feet. The <br />was the minimum acceptable for required <br />requirements. <br />storage and plant <br />move the channel of <br />nately 60 feet north <br />channel relocation <br />operations space <br />As shown on Map 11, Surface Facilities and Roads - East <br />Portal, fine and coarse refuse from the plant will be transported <br />by belt over Highway 12 to the refuse site in a valley fill <br />immediately north of the highway. Refuse will be discharged at a <br />• rate of approximately 100 tons/hour, increasing to about 200 <br />tons/hour when the plant is expanded. Conveyors have been built <br />with spill plates below the belt to catch any spillage at the <br />highway and river crossings. As the refuse disposal area is <br />expanded, additional conveyors will be constructed to carry refuse <br />to subsequent lifts. A detailed description of the refuse disposal <br />area is presented below. <br />(B) Coal Processing Waste and Non-Coal Processing Waste <br />Non-coal processing waste is disposed of in two separate <br />ways. Trash waste consisting of paper, cans, rags, and other <br />assorted industrial waste associated with general office, shop and <br />warehouse areas is hauled to the non-coal waste disposal area for <br />disposal (Map 12, Surface Facilities <br />• <br />2.05-26 (Revised 12-18-98) ~A1~63 <br />~~VV ~ n <br />
