• 2.05.3 The Bowie No. 2 Mine will utilize the Bowie No. 1 Mine unit train loadout. The unit train loadout will remain the responsibility of the Bowie No. 1 Mine, and will remain subject to the requirements of DMG permit C-81-038 unless the loadout is transferred to the Bowie No. 2 Mine permit. (3)(a) Following is a discussion of the proposed mine facilities: Portal Conveyor Transfer Buildings • PR-07 A PPRovED S~1 ~-~03 The D-Seam portal conveyor transfer building is a structural steel building where the main belt from the mine terminates. The coal from the mine will transfer to the stockpile conveyor. Gob conveyed from the mine will be transferred to the gob belt. The dimensions ofthe building are approximate 20 feet by 24 feet by 45 feet high. The B-Seam will have a similar transfer building. Gob conveyed from the B-Seam will be transferred to a gob belt., Coal conveyed from the B-Seam will be stockpiled by a radial stacker. Stacking Tube The raw coal is stacked by this concrete tube to minimize coal segregation and air particulate emissions. The tube is approximately 85-feet high and 12-feet in diameter. It has 4 foot openings to allow coal to flow from the tube to the stockpile area. The stacking tube is located directly on the reclaim tunnel. Reclaim Tunnel The reclaim tunnel is located under the stacking tube and a 70,000 ton stockpile. It is of reinforced concrete construction. The typical inside dimensions of the tunnel are 13 feet high by 12 feet wide. The tunnel is approximately 245 feet long. A 36-inch diameter escape tube is located on the east end of the tunnel. The 120 foot long escape tube terminates at a concrete fan housing that is approximately 6 feet by 6 feet by 8 feet high. Screen and Crusher Buildino The screen and crusher building is a structural steel building that is approximately 52 feet high. The building houses a double deck screen and crusher. It has the capability of producing 2"x0" crushed coal and stoker 2.05 - 9 - 2/03
