2.04.6 (c) OVERBURDEN SWELL FACTORS <br />A comparison of the 1994 to 1995 mapping information, as found in the respective Annual <br />Hydrology/Reclamation reports, still indicates a zero swell factor for the compacted ash <br />material used to fill "A" and "B" Pits. (The swell factor is computed by plotting pit cross- <br />sections on 100 foot intervals and determining the annual cut and fill difference.) This is <br />despite the change of coal supplier (Colowyo Coal Company to Bowie Resources Ltd.) to <br />the source of the ash (the power facility located in Golden, Colorado) early in 1995. <br />Coors has presently computed a material deficit in "A" and "B" Pits of approximately <br />1,463,400 bcy which it plans to make up through continued ash disposal. Should events <br />necessitate change to this plan, it will be communicated through the Revision process, to <br />include modification of the Post-Mining Reclamation Contour Map and the Final Grading <br />and Drainage Plan Map. <br />C~ <br />• <br />47 5(46 <br />
