<br />No specific approvals are granted under this section. <br />III. Hydrologic Balance <br />A. Water Quality Standards and Effluent Limitations <br />The Division approves small area exemptions (SAE'S) from use of sediment <br />ponds due to the limited size of the area and due to the fact that ponds and <br />treatment facilities are not necessary for the drainage to meet the effluent <br />limitations of Rule 4.05.2 and applicable State and Federal water quality <br />standards for receiving streams and also due to the fact that no mixing of <br />surface drainage with a discharge from underground workings will occur. <br />The small areas to be exempted are topsoil piles located along the roads that <br />will be constructed at the site.

(4.05.3(2)) <br />C. Stream Channel Diversions <br />Riprap channel lining is proposed for use to control erosion.
