the trailer. The location is shown on Map 24, Surface Facilities. In 1995, a temporary office trailez with <br />• dimensions of 24 x 66 x 12 feet was leveled and blocked south of the administration building. There were no water <br />and sewer hook-ups, and a 40-foot long buried conduit brought in power from an existing transformer. The <br />location is delineated on Map 24. Bonding calculations addressing the temporary office trailer aze presented on <br />page 2.05-54(f)58. <br />Parking for the administrative staff and miners is located east of the bathhouses. In order to accommodate parking <br />requirement for mine employees and visitors, the layout of the pazking area has been modified as shown on Map <br />24. As shown on the map, parking islands have been constructed to establish parking corridors and walkways in <br />the parking azea. The parking islands have curbs made of railroad track and concrete light pedestals. Connections <br />from the light pedestals extend to elevated outlet boxes which provide cold-weather plug-ins in the pazking area. <br />Three additional pazking islands were permitted and constructed in 1995, as shown on Map 24. The new parking <br />islands aze consistent in design with the existing islands. There aze two parking islands per line of cars. Each <br />island is equipped with 8 electrical receptacles hung on a one-rail structure supported by an oblong railroad rail <br />base. Bonding calculations addressing the new parking islands are presented in Appendix A. <br />Drainage around the pazking area was modified as per the details provided on Map 24. The ditch between the <br />current pazking azea and access road was filled and mnoff will be directed into Ditches D~ and Gam. The guazd shack <br />was converted into a storage building and it is located on the west end of the mobile equipment pazking/material storage <br />yard. <br />In 2005 the unpaved eastern portion of the existing parking lot (approximately 130 x 180 feet) and the mine ready-line <br />parking area west of the operations center, were leveled and regraded, with excavated material being used to fill-in and <br />bring low azeas up to a consistent grade. Road-base material was subsequently brought in and compacted over the <br />regraded parking areas to establish a suitable base for paving operations. These aeeas were then paved with <br />approximately 3-4 inches of asphalt paving material. The existing perimeter surface drainage systems were maintained <br />• or reestablished during grading, base preparation, and paving operations. <br />In order to evaluate the existing septic system and leach field for future expansion at the mine a percolation test was <br />conducted. Approximately six, 4-inch diameter holes, 30-48 inches deep were augured for the percolation test. <br />After the test was completed, the cuttings were placed back in the hole. Also, aneight-foot deep backhoe pit was <br />dug so a soil profile could be obtained. After the backhoe pit was logged it was backfilled. It should be noted that <br />the activity as shown on Map 24, Surface Facilities, would be within the boundary of the existing sediment control <br />system. <br />The bathhouse/office facility replaced the former bathhouse trailers, and was constmcted adjacent to the operations <br />center as indicated on Map 24. The existing water and sewer systems were utilized for the new facility. The former <br />trailers were removed during the summer of 1993, with a portion of the resulting open area becoming part of the <br />parking lot. Water and sewer lines from these trailers were capped and covered. <br />Approximately 3,000 cubic yazds of material was removed during excavation for the foundations and slab, and <br />approximately 400 yazds of compacted backfill material was used for the foundations and slab. In addition, some 850 <br />tons of gravel was compacted beneath the foundations and slab. No other excavation work is planned. A limited <br />amount of additional dirtwork included contouring of the pazking lot azea where the current administration trailer and <br />pazking is located, and a possible widening of the access road by some 25 feet, should this become necessary in the azea <br />of the new bathhouse facility. The pazking azea was surfaced originally with tar-sand material, but this material has <br />been overlaid with asphalt, and drainage will be conveyed via the existing system <br />The original building is of concrete block construction and has dimensions of approximately 200 x 75 feet. <br />Approximate height of the building is 15 feet. The building was placed on a reinforced spread-footer foundation <br />• and has a reinforced concrete slab floor. In 2003, under MROl-173, aten-foot expansion to the south was <br />constructed for the bathhouse azea only, providing an additional 1,000 square feet of locker room for the workforce. <br />The extension design and structure matched the existing building. The extension required constmction of piers, <br />MROS-202 2.05-17.3 10/I 1/OS <br />
