STATE OF COLOIW>Uv <br />DIVISION OF MINERALS AND GEOLOGY <br />Uepsiment of Natural Resources <br />1313 Sherman 51., Hoom 215 <br />Uenvcr, Colomrio 80203 <br />Phone: (3031 H66-3567 <br />FAX IL171 A32~A 106 <br />February 24, 1998 <br />Ms. Christine Johnston <br />Mountain Coal Company <br />P.O. Box 59l <br />Somerset, Colorado 81434 <br />Re: West Elk Mine (Permit No. C-80-007) <br />Minor Revision No. 239 <br />Dear Ms. Johnston: <br />I~~~~ <br />DEPARTMENT OF <br />NATURAL <br />RESOURCES <br />Ray Rr.mer <br />Gavemor <br />lames 5 Lrxhhead <br />E tecwive Director <br />hGChael B Long <br />Division Direc,or <br />The Division has completed a preliminary review of MCC's application for MR-239, and has the <br />following comments regarding the adequacy of the application. <br />The proposed subsurface drainage system is intended to discharge into the existing surface <br />water system. MCC should demonstrate that the existing system (ditch sizing and channel <br />lining and pond sizing) is adequate to accommodate the additional flow or provide revised <br />designs for the surface water system. <br />The reclamation plan should be revisited to indicate which portions of the surface water <br />system will be permanently retained to convey flow from the subsurface system, and to <br />ensure that it is capable of accommodating the permanent incremental flow. <br />MCC should demonstrate that there are no long term water rights considerations which may <br />need to be addressed. <br />4. The Division recognizesthat the plans may change as conditionsdictate, and that it is difficult <br />for MCC to accurately predict reclamation volumes and areas. However, in order for the <br />Division to determine an appropriate reclamation bond amount, MCC needs to provide a <br />worst case disturbance scenario for topsoil replacement and revegetation. Please provide <br />additional information to clarify which drainage structures or portions thereof will be in <br />previously undisturbed areas, and a prediction of the maximum width of each drain or trench <br />excavation. <br />As discussed in recent meetings, the Division has requested that MCC submit designs which <br />address the entire slope stability project, including the installation of the stone columns and <br />
