• 2.05.3 <br />used to transfer the coal into the run-of-mine coal stockpile in order to <br />minimize segregation and air particulate emissions. Radial stackers are <br />utilized to stockpile the crushed coal and stoker coal. <br />The downhill conveyor will eliminate the need for the crushed coal pile at the <br />portal bench. The downhill conveyor will transport crushed coal to the coal <br />storage pile located along old State Highway 133. Up to 350,000 tons of <br />coal will be stored in the new highway stockpile. <br />Downhill Conveyor Transfer Building <br />The downhill conveyor transfer building is a structural steel building where <br />the transfer belt from the crushing and screening building terminates. The <br />coal transfers to the downhill conveyor. The dimensions of the building are <br />approximately 16 feet by 16 feet by 25 feet high. <br />Stacking Tubes <br />• The 2"XO" coal is stacked at the highway stockpile by two concrete tubes to <br />minimize coal segregation and air particulate emissions. One tube is <br />approximately 100-feet high and the other is 120-feet high. Both are 12-feet <br />in diameter and are equipped with 4-foot square openings to allow coal to <br />flow from the tube to the stockpile area. One of the stacking tubes is located <br />directly on the reclaim tunnel. <br />Reclaim Tunnel <br />This 13-foot diameter, 350-foot long multi-plate tunnel is located at the <br />highway stockpile. A 42-inch diameter, 160-foot long escape tube provides <br />ventilation and emergency exit from the west (closed) end of the reclaim <br />tunnel. The escape tube terminates at a concrete fan housing that is <br />approximately 6-feet by 6-feet by 8-feet high. The ventilation fan will not <br />push air to the south over the highway. <br />Loadout Transfer Buildino <br />The loadout transfer building is a structural steel building where the reclaim <br />belt terminates. The coal transfers to the loadout conveyor. The dimensions <br />• of the building are approximately 20 feet by 20 feet by 45 feet high. <br />PR-O6 2.05 - 14 - 8/01 <br />R PPRovED <br />~~/s~oz- <br />
