State Req. <br />• 4.05.9.1 Since the two ponds hwe valid water rights and the discharge waters meet <br />(d) the numerous standards for the receiving stream, the impoundment waters <br />will not result in the diminution of the quality or quantity of water availab~e <br />to water right holders. Downstream water right holders are presently <br />receiving water released from these impoundments with no adverse effects. <br />4.05.9.1 Neither pond is more than 1,000 acre-feet in capacity. Both ponds will be <br />(e) incised following final reclamation. The surface area of the Wad9e <br />Impoundment is about I I acres and The surface area of the Northwest <br />Impoundment is 0.8 acres at the final spillways. Consequently, the provi- <br />sions of this rule do not apply. <br />4.05.9.1 The size of both impoundments is adequate to supply water to livestock anc~ <br />(f) wildlife. <br />4.05.9.1 Peabody Coal Company feels that the above arguments demonstrate that <br />• (g) both impoundments will be adequate for the approved postmining•land use. <br />4.05.9(3) The side slopes of the Northwest Impoundment are less than the 2V:IH <br />required by this rule. The steepest slope is 0.6V:IH located on the western <br />bank. <br />The side slopes of the Wadge Impoundment are also less than the 2V:IH <br />required by this rule. The steepest slope is 1.8V:IN located on the eastern <br />bank. Since reclamation of the eastern side slopes in this prelaw area has <br />been successful, Peabody does not propose any new disturbances to this <br />reclaimed ores. <br />4.05.9(4) The final reclamation around both impoundments will stabilize the side <br />slopes and stream channels to minimize erosion about the ponds. <br />4.05.9(5) Disturbed areas around both impoundments following final grading will be <br />vegetated with Seed Mix No. 2 specified in Tab 12 of Permit C-005-80. Any <br />• gullies around the impoundments will be repaired as approved in Mirn~r <br />Revision No. 15. <br />7-10-14 Revised September 28, X984 <br />
