Gunnison Mining and Reclamation Plan. WECC proposes to <br />auger drill four three-inch diameter holes to bedrock in the <br />locations shown on the attachment to this letter. Holes 1 and 2 <br />will be drilled to gather foundation and soil data for the <br />construction of the coal crusher and coal analyzer approved by the <br />CMLRD on January 3, 1985 (Document No. 6502). The drill sites are <br />within a previously disturbed area immediately east of the breaker <br />building. Upon completion of drilling, the holes will be backfilled <br />with the drill cuttings. <br />In addition, WECC is proposing to auger drill holes 3 and 4 as shown <br />on the attachment to gather foundation and soil data as part of a <br />study to determine the feasibility of constructing a retaining wall <br />on the north facing slope immediately west of the coal storage <br />silos. Designs and reclamation costs for the retaining wall will be <br />supplied to the CMLRD if constructed. Like holes 1 and 2, holes 3 <br />and 4 will be drilled to bedrock and backfilled upon completion of <br />drilling. These holes are also within the disturbed surface <br />facilities area. <br />If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~ <br />Paige Seville <br />Sr. Permits Coordinator <br />PBB/mp <br />cc: D.
