Loadout Stockoile/Refuse Pile Access Road <br />• An access road was constructed to provide bulldozer access from the loadout stockpile area to the waste pile area during <br />construction of the refuse disposal area. The road will tie the southwest side of the loadout stock pile to the north west <br />end of the waste pile, following an abandoned road cut in the hillside above the loadout stockpile for approximately 100 <br />feet then will continue uphill for approximately 300 feet and cross the waste pile perimeter ditch section RDA-lc into <br />the waste pile area (see Map 24). The access road was designed and constructed in accordance with the design <br />requirements of Rule 4.03.2. The design and certification is presented in Exhibit 25N, Refuse Pile North Access Road. <br />Topsoil was removed and stockpiled in accordance with Rule 4.06. The area proposed for the 300-foot access road <br />section required stripping of approximately 16" of topsoil from a 30' wide arez. Approximately 444 cubic yards of <br />topsoil was removed from this section and placed in topsoil stockpile SF-8. The lower 100-foot section of access road <br />is located in disturbed area where topsoil has been previously stripped and stockpiled. <br />Construction of this access road was done in accordance with the specifications detailed in Figure 22, Access Road <br />Typical Sections. Surfacing consists of a 12-inch sub-base of 6-inch minus pit-run rock surfaced with a two- inch layer <br />of 1 winch crushed rock. The access road crosses the waste pile perimeter ditch in section RDA-]c with a 40 foot long <br />18-inch CMP culvert installed at the crossing. Culvert sizing and installation was done in accordance with Rule <br />4.03.2(4). Road drainage was directed to the west end of the road and into ditch D-1. <br />Reclamation of this access road will occur after the road is no longer needed for it's intended purpose and will include <br />removal of the culvert, ripping of the road surface, topsoil redistribution, and revegetation. Topsoil will be redistributed <br />over the road area and the area seeded with an appropriate seed mix during the fast available planting period, <br />IV. East and West Ramas to Portal Area <br />The east and west ramps to the portal area were constructed in accordance with permit C-056-82 approved April 16, <br />1984. Locations may be found on Map 24, Surface Facilities. Profiles and cross sections may be found on Map 30, <br />Road Profiles and Cross Sections. Overall grade does not exceed 10 percent. <br />V. Light-Use Roads to Powerline Substation <br />A light-use road and a permanent road will be used to access the substation. The light-use road will run 4,800 feet <br />to the substation and will follow the existing "fence" road. The light-use road will be designed per the <br />requirements of Rule 4.03.3, Light-Use Roads. The light-use road will be sufficiently maintained in order to ensure <br />erosion control. Surfacing of the road will be adequate for the general use of the road and during winter and spring <br />snow removal. Access to the light-use nd substation will also require the utiliTation of a permanent road <br />approved by the CMLRD on February 1888 ( ethnical Revision 87-12; Permit C-81-071). This permanent road <br />runs 12,000 feet from Country Road #2 rs maintained under CYCC's Permit C-81-071. The roads will be <br />maintained by TCC. Upon substation removal, the light-use road will remain as part of the approved postrnining <br />use of ranch management. The light-use and permanent road are shown on Map 39, Substation and Powerline <br />Location. <br />A light-use road will be used to access a subsidence borehole meter at Mine 2 (MR89-37). The road will be <br />reclaimed upon completion of the subsidence borehole metering. <br /> <br />APPROVED APR 2 4 2000 <br />Permit Renewal No. 3 2.05-73 12/10/98 <br />
