APR. 9.2002 10:06RM TWENTYMILE CORL ENVIRONMENTAL N0.871 P.6 <br />The IAP fan is approximately 11.5' x 9.5' x 9' and was placed 20' west of the borehole on a 20' x 30' x 2' concrete <br />pad. The Robinson fan was acquired firm the Fish Creek Borehole facility and is approximately 8' x 9' x 11'. <br />The Robinson fan was placed 20' south of the borehole on a 20' x 20' x 2' pad and includes a 20' x 20' x 12' lean- <br />to building. A spare pad with dimensions of 24' x 12' x .8' was constructed approximately 20' east ofthe borehole <br />to facilitate an additional fan installation that is no longer required, <br />The intake fan is a Jaffrey 60" diameter axial vane fan with capacity to move 150,000 cubic feet per minute into the <br />mice. The prime mover is a 800 hp motor. This fan was installed approximately 20' east of the intake borehole. <br />The dimensions of this fan are appra~cimately 5.3' x 7.3' x 6.5'. Support for this fan is provided by a 20' x 20' x 1' <br />concrete pad. <br />The installation of a heater was required to warm t]te av being blown into the mine under freezing conditions. The <br />heater was constructed on the east side of the intake fen vent shaft. A concrete pad approximately 12' x 26' x 1' <br />was constructed to support the heater. Overall dimensions of the heater are 10' x 20' x ] 0'. The structure was <br />painted to match ffie existing structures on the site, <br />An electrical control building was constructed between the intake and exhaust fhn locations, A 16' x 16' x 2' <br />concrete pad was constructed for the building will be 16' x 16' x 12'. Two 8° x 8' x 2' concrete pads were <br />constructed beside the building for placement of hansformers. Six electrical poles Were installed from the electrical <br />control building to the fan installations. <br />In order to improve operation of the ventilation system, an additional electrical control panel was' installed at the <br />site. The panel is approximately 5' x 3' x 8' and sits on a concrete pad that is approximately 8' x 8' x 4". A power <br />cable extends from the control panel to the IAP fan and four new poles were added to allow for installation of the <br />cable. The location ofthe controller, pad, and poles is shown on Figtue 16E(1). <br />The access roads into the site have approximately 9" of 6" minus pit run and 4" of 1" minus base coarse. The <br />material was graded and crowned to facilitate drainage off of the roads. The upper road is approximately 900 feet <br />in length and the lower road is approximately 450 foet in length. The top width of the roads is approximately 15 <br />feet, Upland drainage is diverted around the site, The fan buildings were painted to blend in with the surrounding <br />area. The fence constructed around the perimeter of the site is used to keep animals out of the area. The power line <br />comas in from the northeast from an existing YVEA site. The sediment control system utilizes a diversion ditch, <br />seeding and mulching topsoil pile, cut end fill slopes, grading road and pad, and the adjacent vegetation filter. <br />IAP Fan Silencer (MR 02-198) . <br />A new silencer will be installed ott the IAP fan, and installation of the silencer and associated duct work <br />will require construction of foundations and H-Beam supports, The four foundations will require footers <br />(3.5' x 3.5' x 1') sad then placement of piers (4' x 1.3') on top of the footers. The footers will be <br />approximately 3' below grade. The supports will be constructed of H-beams (w8 x 18) with l/." cross <br />braces. The support structures are approximately 17' in length. Another H-beam, same specification as <br />support, will be placed on top of the supports and the silencer bolted to it. The ductwork will tie into the <br />silencer and existing fan. <br />The installation of the silencer and duck work will oceur within the existing disturbed area. The overall <br />length of the silencer and duct work is approximately 34 feet, the location of the structure is shown on <br />Figure 16 E(1). <br />hilt o2.17s 2.05-44 oaiosioz <br />
