Portal access road, and the Materials Storage Bench access road, which are <br /> shown on Map 53 and 53B. Access roads are properly certified. These <br /> certifications are provided in Exhibit 8A of the permit document. A <br /> discussion of the access roads can be found in Section 2.05.3 in Volume 1 of <br /> the permit document. The designs are in compliance with Rules 2.05.3 and <br /> 4.03.2. <br /> 2. All of the these roads will be reclaimed upon closure of the mine when the <br /> roads are no longer necessary. <br /> 3. The proposed upper waste pile includes an access road to be used to <br /> transport waste to the site. The road is planned to be 2,500 feet long, a full <br /> cut-section, gravel surfaced road with grades up to 10 percent. Because of <br /> inaccessibility, due to weather, to the proposed road alignment at the time of <br /> the upper waste pile revision, a geotechnical investigation of the road <br /> corridor has not been completed. This investigation would include a <br /> reconnaissance geologic map with emphasis on slope instabilities and <br /> drainage characteristics. Based on this map, a preliminary access road <br /> cut-slope stabilization and drainage design will be developed. Once <br /> approved by the Division, initial construction will be as a pioneer road with <br /> minimal excavation. This investigation and final design will be completed as <br /> the road is excavated. The upper refuse pile is not proposed for this permit <br /> term; therefore, construction of the road is not proposed. More information <br /> is included as Exhibit 50 in the permit document. <br /> C. Light Use Roads <br /> 1. The West Elk Mine has several light-use roads at the site. They are <br /> around the southern and eastern perimeter of MB-2R and around the <br /> base of Lower Refuse Pile, above the facilities area and on Jumbo <br /> Mountain to access monitoring sites and the water tank, and the Lone <br /> Pine Gulch fan road. The designs, except for some preexisting roads, <br /> are in compliance with Rules 2.05.3 and 4.03.3. <br /> II. Support Facilities - Rule 4.04 <br /> A. Construction of support facilities did not result in any damage to any protected <br /> structures. Therefore, the Division proposes to approve those activities <br /> (4.04(6)). <br /> 25 <br />
