The application discussed operation, location, <br />design and construction, drainage, surfacing, maintenance, and <br />reclamation of all mine roads. <br />The mine is accessed by County Road 108, which continues through the mine <br />permit area for a total of 7,400 feet. The number of vehicles using this <br />road is small (estimated 26 vehicles per year). The road turns into an <br />unimproved track beyond the mine and is used only by hunters, campers, or <br />local visitors. There are no homeowners above the mine that use this <br />road regularly. <br />The mine has short haul road segments that connect surface facilities <br />such as the refuse pile and coal storage silo. However, these roads are <br />short in length and are primarily part of the mine bench. <br />One access road stretches for a considerable distance to the top of Stony <br />Ridge and is used daily to check the mine vent fan. The only other road <br />used is a light use road which leads to the water surge tank and is used <br />about once per year. <br />
