excavated for placement of the lines. The trenches will be dug with a backhoe or Vackhoe, and during the <br />excavating process suitable plant growth media will be removed and set to the side so that it can placed on <br />• top of the subsoils returned to the trench. <br />In reference to pumping directly into Foidel Creek, TCC will keep the water level in the pit thirty feet <br />below the top of the high wall. The existing water in the pit will be pumped down to that level so that <br />adequate storage is available to contain spring runoff in addition to the flow from site 19. By maintaining <br />the water level below the thirty foot level a buffer is provided for "isolating" water pumped from site 109 <br />into the pit. The plan is to pump water from site 109 into the pit and then water would be pumped out of <br />the pit and either recycled to the Prep Plant or dischazged directly into Foidel Creek. The pumping rate <br />from the pond will typically exceed that coming from site 109. The ability to discharge directly into Foidel <br />Creek will be dictated by water quality in Trout Creek and the status of the Fish Creek Borehole. <br />The pump will require the installation of a transformer, concrete pad, and Bounding bed. This installation <br />will be in a disturbed area; therefore, no topsoil salvaging will occur. The pad will be approximately 6' x <br />7' x 1'. A powerline, approximately 350' in length, and requiring two power poles, will be constructed <br />from an existing line to this new location. <br />The pumping of thickener underllow into the abandoned workings will not have an impact on the active <br />mine operations. The underground pipeline will be monitored/inspected as part of the <br />weekly mine inspections that are performed at TCC. The inspections will be conducted to determine if <br />there are any leaks or broken fittings in the line. <br />The permanent monitoring well for this activity is the 10 Right dewatering well which is utilized to pump <br />water from the gob area. The water level in the 10 Right sump is monitored from this location. The <br />stratum underlying the abandoned mine works includes mostly shale and siltstone for 10 feet below the <br />• coal seam. The gradient of the proposed settling area ranges from 3.5 to 12 degrees towazd the 10 right <br />dewatering borehole sump. <br />2.05.4 Reclamation Plan <br />~) Each application shall contain a Qlan for reclamation of the lands within the proposed permit area, <br />showing how the applicant will comply with environmental protection performance standazds of the re ulg atorv <br />program. The plan shall include, at a minimum, all information required under the relevant sections of Rule 2. <br />(2) Each plan shall contain the following information for the proposed permit area: <br />{a) A detailed timetable for the completion of each major step in the reclamation plan; <br />RESPONSE <br />A detailed timetable for the completion of each major step in the Foidel Creek Mine reclamation plan is <br />included as Table 52, Reclamation Time Table. Details concerning the Fish Creek Tipple Reclamation <br />Plan are found within Rule 2.05.4 of the Fish Creek Tipple Appendix, Volume VIII. <br />(b) A detailed estimate of the cost of reclamation of the proposed operations required to be <br />covered by a performance bond with supportine calculations for the estimates; <br />RESPONSE <br />• The detailed estimate of reclamation costs of the proposed operations with supporting calculations follows. <br />Time has been rounded to the closest hour and costs have been rounded to the closest dollar. Please see <br />Appendix A, Volume I-B, for all bond calculations for minor, technical, and permit revisions. <br />PR 03-06 <br />2.05-98 <br />05/07/03 <br />
