Sediment Pond A and the removal of the concrete splitter box which is the outfall of the <br />pond. <br />Topsoil was salvaged over 35 acres of the disturbed area on the site. Twenty-one inches of <br />the Heldt silt clay and 16 inches of Nihill stony loam were removed and were stockpiled on <br />site. The stockpiles consisted of 59,682 cubic yards. All of this was replaced except for the <br />topsoil in two stockpiles which will be used for reclamation of the sediment pond. <br />The sediment control structures will be the last features to be reclaimed at the mine. They <br />will not be removed until revegetation success standards have been met on the reclaimed <br />area and runoff from the area meets applicable State and Federal water quality standards. <br />The sediment control structures will then be regraded, topsoiled, and seeded following the <br />same procedures as for the surface facilities area. <br />Operation plans stated in the previous permit for the loadout facility are presently void since <br />this area was never or disturbed or utilized in conjunction with the mining operation, other <br />than for water monitoring purposes. <br />Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine 8 Permit Renewal No. 3 <br />
