• reclaimed area will contribute fewer suspended solids to streamflow or runoff outside the permit area as compared to untreated drainage from the adjacent area and sediment pond removal is authorized by the Division. The drainage area of the sediment pond is about 0.03 square miles. The drainage area of Munger Creek near the sediment pond is 6.5 square miles (ref. table 4.5-6). Based on this large difference in drainage areas, any water contained in the sediment pond will not have a measurable impact on the quantity of water in Munger Creek. The area not to be disturbed along the south bank of Munger Creek will be clearly marked with Stream Buffer Zone signs. The original permit document analyzed the flood hazard at the refuse disposal area, see 4.5.3.3.4. The flood hazard was reevaluated by estimating the limits of the 100-year plain of Munger near the disposal area. The study confirms the original study's conclusion that there is no danger of flood waters encroaching on the planned disposal area or related facilities. • The flood hazard used the flood discharge values listed in Table 4.5-6. Cross- sections of the channel were determined from topography maps at five locations. Manning's equation was used to determine the flow depth at each cross-section. The average slope between each cross-section was used in the calculation. Cross-section location and the extent of the floodplain are shown on Figure 2.2-(i. Cross-sections are shown on Exhibit 2.2-7. Flow calculations are presented in Appendix M(vii) beginning at page 52. Site Preparation and Construction In order to protect critical deer and elk winter habitat, surface disturbing activities related to initial construction of the waste disposal site and associated pond and soil stockpile features will be allowed only during the period from May 1 to December 1. The seasonal restriction will not apply to operations related to ongoing waste haulage, placement and compaction. Permit Renewal 2-15 09/03
