OPERATION PLAN - RULE 2.05. <br />• <br />As stated on page 2.05.1 of the Bear Coal Company permit application for <br />the No. 3 Portals, the Bear Coal Company will submit detailed <br />information regarding the mining of the B, E, and F Coal Seams within <br />future five-year permits. Future mining on these coal seams will be by <br />the same methods and techniques as that proposed for mining the C Coal <br />Seam. Mining in the G Coal Seam will proceed mining in the B Coal Seam <br />and later the E and F Coal Seams, with eventual mining in all seams <br />being similar to the mining in the C Coal Seam. The anticipated annual <br />coal production from mining in the other seams will be the same rate as <br />projected for the C Seam -- 275,000 tons of coal per year. <br />The measures to be used to maximize the use and conservation of the coal <br />resources from all seams, including the C, B, E, and F Coal Seams, are <br />described on page 2.05-3 of the permit revision. Mining from the <br />additional coal seams will utilize the same facilities as those utilized <br />• by the C Coal Seam. All seams are superimposed on each other so no <br />additional area, other than that proposed in the permit revision, will <br />be required. <br />• <br />-36- <br />
