RIDER TO MINING PERMIT
1. PRIOR TO SEDIMENT POND CONSTRUCTION, THE PERMITTEE WILL SUBMIT TO THE
DIVISION REVISED POND DESIGNS WHICH [BILL INSURE THAT RUNOFF STORAGE CAPACITY
WILL NOT BE REDUCED BY GROUND WATER DRAINING INTO THE POND AT ANY
TIME DURING THE YEAR. FURTHERMORE, THE PLAN WILL INCLUDE A PRO-
POSAL FOR LINING THE POND, OR OTHERWISE PREVENTING THE CONTAMINATION
OF NEAR SURFACE GROUND WATER AS A RESULT OF PERCOLATION THROUGH
THE ALLUVIUhf.
2. WITHIN ONE h10NTH OF PERMIT ISSUANCE, THE PERMITTEE WILL SUBMIT TO THE
DIVISION A REVISED PLAN FOR HANDLING POSSIBLE FLOODING OF PORTIONS
OF THE PERMIT AREA. THE PLAN WILL INCLUDE AN EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVE
FLOOD CONTROL TECHNIQUES AND POTENTIAL LYX9NSTREAM EFFECTS OF RNY FLOOD
DIVERSIONS. EFFECTS OF THE RIVER CHANNEL RELOCATION ON FLOODING IN
THE AREA WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE EVALUATION.
3. WITHIN 11fONTH OF PERMIT ISSUANCE, THE PERMITTEE WILL SUBMIT TO THE DIVISION
A DETAILED PLAN FOR HANDLING AND TREATING ANY DISCHARGE OF WATER
FROM THE UNDERGROUND WORKINGS WHICH DOES NOT 1fEET THE EFFLUENT
LIMITATIONS OF 4.05.2. THE PLAN WILL ADDRESS THE 19EASURES TO BE
USED TO PREVENT OR CONTROL GRAVITY DISCHARGE INCLUDING CONVEYANCE TO,
MAINTENANCE OF, AND DISCHARGE FROM SUlfPS, SEDIMENTATION PONDS OR
A TREATMENT FACILITY ON THE PERMIT AREA.
4. THE APPLICANT WILL SUBh1IT TO THE DIVISION AN ANNUAL REPORT OF
INFLOWS, DISCHARGES AND CONSUI9PTION OF WATER WITHIN THE 14INE.
THIS REPORT IS TO INCLUDE A MINE WORKINGS 1fAP SHOWING THE LOCATION
AND QUANTITY OF INFLOWS; A TABLE KEYED TO THE MINE MAP WHICH SHALL
CONTAIN THE SOURCE (i.e., FAULT, FRACTURES, ETC.), QUANTITY,
DURATION AND QUALITY (i,e., pH, ELECTRO-CONDUCTIVITY RND TEf9PERA-
TURE) OF ALL INFLOWS; A TABLE CONTAINING RECOP.DS OF WATER DISCHARGED
FROM THE MINE, CONSUMED IN THE MINE AND IMPORTED FOR USE WITHIN
THE MINE; A DISCUSSION OF WATER BALANCE [~JITHIN THE MINE; AND
FINALLY, A PROJECTION OF HYDROLOGIC IMPACTS OF MINING IN THE
UPC014ING YEAR.
5. BEAR COAL COMPANY SHALL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE THREE NORTH FORK
ALLUVIAL WELLS TO MONITOR THE EFFECTS OF MINING ON ALLUVIAL GROUND WATER.
THIS MONITORING SHALL INCLUDE 1fONTHLY 190NITORING OF GROUND WATER LEVELS,
pH, TEMPERATURE AND ELECTRO-CONDUCTIVITY. ON A QUARTERLY BASIS,
GROUND WATER QUALITY ANALYSES SHALL BE RUN ON SAMPLES COLLECTED FROM
THESE ALLWIAL WELLS. THE WATER QUALITY SAMPLES SHALL BE ANALYZED
FOR THOSE PARAMETERS IN ATTACHhfENT 2 OF THIS DOCUMENT. ALL DATA SHALL
BE SUBMITTED TO THE DIVISION WITHIN ONE I90NTH OF THE DATE OF
COLLECTION. THE DIVISION MAY REDUCE THIS FREQUENCY OF ANALYSIS, THE
NUMBER OF PARAMETERS ANALYZED, AND NUMBER OF WELLS hfONITORED UPON
COMPLETION OF ONE YEAR'S COLLECTION OF DATA.
6. THE PERMITTEE WILL SUBMIT TO TN.E DIVISION AN P.NNUAL HYDROLOGIC
REPORT. THIS REPORT SHALL INCLUDE AN ANALYSIS OF ALL HYDROLOGIC
DATA GATHERED DURING THE YEAR, AN ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACTS OF
MINING DURING THE YEAR, AND AN ASSESSMENT OF THE PROJECTED IMPACTS
OF MINING IN THE FOLLOWING YEAR. THIS REPORT SHALL ASSESS THE IMPACTS
OF 1dINING ON THE QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF WATER IN SURFACE STREAMS,
SPRINGS, GRWND [9ATER AQUIFERS, MINE INFLOW, AND MINE DISCHARGES.
7. THE PERMITTEE WILL SUBf9IT, WITHIN ONE MONTH OF PERMIT APPROVAL, A
GOLDEN EAGLE SURVEY PLAN FOR APPROVAL BY THE DIVISION IN CONSULTATION
WITH THE U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE. THIS PLAN WILL DESCRIBE A
SURVEY DESIGNED TO DETERf4INE IF THE KNOWN GOLDEN EAGLE NEST NEAR THE
BEAR NO. 3 PORTAL WAS ACTIVE IN 1982, AND WHETHER THERE ARE ANY
ALTERNATIVE GOLDEN EAGLE NESTS IN THE AREA. THE SURVEY WILL BE
CONDUCTED WITHIN ONE MONTH OF PERMIT ISSUANCE, AND RESULTS [JILL BE
SUBMITTED TO THE DIVISION TO DETER1fINE IF A MITIGATION PLAN IS
NEEDED.
