15. Th.e Division fmds that the activities proposed by the applicant would not affect the <br />continued existence of endangered or threatened species or result in the destruction or <br />adverse modification of their critical habitats (2.07.6(2)(n)). <br />16. The Division has contacted the Office of Surface Mining, Reclamation Fees Branch. As <br />of this time, the issuance of this proposed decision, the operator is current in the <br />payment of reclamation fees required by 30 CFR Chapter VII, subchapter R <br />(2.07.6(2)(0)). <br />Section B -Rule 4 <br />I. Roads -Rule 4.03 <br />A. Haul Roads <br />There aze no haul roads at the Twin Pines No. 2 Mine. The main road to <br />access the mine is owned and maintained by Fremont County. <br />B. Access Roads <br />The mine has two access roads, a stretch of 700 feet from the end of the <br />existing entrance road, which is county owned, to the portal bench at the mine <br />site and an entrance way to the mine sales office area. The landowner has <br />requested that both road segments remain as permanent swctures. The road <br />segments can be located on Map TP-5 for the mine azea and on TP-6 for the <br />coal sales area. The retention of the roads are compatible with. the approved <br />post-mining land use of rangeland and wildlife habitat. The roads provide <br />access to cattle and ranchers. Therefore, the Division proposes to approve <br />retention of the access roads (4.03.2(1)(f)). <br />The access road to the reclaimed refuse pile has been regraded and altered to <br />serve as a drainage channel for the surface flow exiting from the refuse pile's <br />diversion ditch. The ditch is banked and has been designed to handle the <br />10-year, 24-hour, and 25-year, 24-hour precipitation events. This design was <br />approved with Technical Revision No. 6 on December 14, 1993 and is part of <br />Technical Revision No. 7. <br />C. Light Use Roads <br />The road to the upper bench substation is considered a light use road. With the <br />decommissioning of the substation and reclamation of the bench, the upper <br />bench road will be reclaimed and converted into a drainage path with <br />cobblestone dikes constructed perpendicular along its length. These structures <br />will allow surface flow to exit off the reclaimed upper bench in a controlled <br />manner. Surface flow, directed downslope via the road/ditch, would then enter <br />an energy dissipator structure and eventually flow downgradient into the upper <br />bench pond. <br />20 <br />
