2.05.3 (2) Operation Description
Possible surface disturbance associated with
underground mining is addressed in the Subsidence Control
Plan contained elsewhere in this application. Reference can
be made to "Projected Slope Construction Sequence -
Idealized Cross-Section" located in this section, and to
the map "Exhibit C" along with the narrative in section
2.05.3 (1) to obtain an understanding of proposed extent of
underground workings and stratum to be affected.
2.05.3 (3) Mine Facilities
The site plan contained in the following dissertation
(2.05.3 (4)) is drawn to the indicated scale of 1"~50' and
shows the as-built and present relationship of all surface
facilities.
Surface coal handling and support facilities consist
of the following structures contained within the 5.6 acres
of disturbed land. An overhead conveyor. which ie the
extention of the main line underground conveyor belt,
passes over the county road and discharges coal into a
stacking tube to produce the run-of-mine stockpile located
on the south side of the road. The drive for this conveyor
is located underground. This conveyor is covered to reduce
particulate emissions to the atmosphere, and the under side
of the structure is enclosed to preclude the possibility of
material falling onto the county road.
A 35 foot stacking tube forms the core of the run of
mine stockpile. Coal storage is designed to minimize
incipient heating and/or other accidental ignition. Storage
piles are constructed in layers. Each layer of coal is
compacted prior to the addition of additional layers, thus
minimizing perculation of air to the interior of the pile.
In the event of an ignition of any coal storage pile, we
Lave cleared ground at the perimeters of such areas in
order to spread the burning material. and thereafter
