• Roadside North Portal Final contours for the Roadside North Portal area are shown on Exhibit 8C. Cross-sections representing the existing and final grade are shown on Exhibit 27. These final contours closely resemble the original contours, see Exhibit 8D for the pre-mining contours. Grading of this area will primarily involve backfilling the portal decline (subsequent to sealing). The backfill material will come from areas filled near Coal Creek and around the stockpile area. Coal remaining in the stockpile area will be sold or hauled to the refuse disposal area. Dirt and rock placed in the decline will be spread in approximately 2-4' lifts and in such a way as to minimize voids in the fill. There will be no specific compaction requirements and lifts may be at any angle less than the angle of draw of the material. The small amount of settling that will take place with this fill technique will have little affect on the final contours and drainage. Concrete and other material left after demolition of the facilities will be placed in the fill material. Once the fill and general site grading is completed, topsoil from Topsoil piles 1 and 3 will be distributed. • The sediment pond and silt fence shown on Exhibit 8C will be utilized for sediment control at the North portal after the site is restored to approximate original contour. The pond and silt fence will remain in place until their removal is approved by the DMG. At that time the pond will be backfilled, the silt fence removed and the berms rounded or removed. The upper diversion ditch will be reclaimed after the sediment pond is removed. Cameo Refuse Disposal Area Nos. 1, 2 and 3 Reclamation of the remaining benches and the top of the Cameo Refuse Disposal Areas (CRDA) will be scheduled as discussed in section (a) of this Tab Section. The final contours for this sites are shown on Exhibit 9C, this section and Exhibits 51, 52 and 60 located in Tab Section 13. Cross-sections representing the existing and final grade are shown on Exhibits 18 and 53, Tab Section 13. These contours reflect a design final configuration rather than an almost original contour. Design for the slopes • and benches is given in Tab Section 13 along with Exhibits 18 and 51 through 53 and 60. ~;
