• 2.05.3 <br />maintained with a motor grader. Gravel will be added to the road surface as <br />necessary. <br />The haul roads in the permit area can be broken into three segments for <br />discussion as follows: <br />11 Haul Road -State Highwav 133 to Portal Level <br />General <br />This haul road handled most of the coal hauled from the site and is <br />approximately 9500-feet long. Coal haul trucks enter the property and <br />proceed to the portal level. The trucks are loaded by a front end loatler and <br />return to old State Highway 133. The drainage from the majority of this road <br />is routed to sediment Pond B and C. Alternative sediment control is utilized <br />for the first 100 to 150 feet of the haul road. After the downhill conveyor is <br />constructed, the haul road to the portal will only handle a minor amount of <br />the coal hauled from the site. The majority of the coal haul traffic will loop off <br />• of old State Highway 133, circle under the truck loadout and return to the <br />State highway. This haul road loop is approximately 400-feet long. <br />The combination of paving, dust control, sediment control on the majority of <br />the road and utilization of alternative sediment control on the remainder of <br />the road will assure that erosion, siltation, pollution of air or water, and <br />damage to public property will be controlled. These controls will also assure <br />that no damage to fish and wildlife or other related environmental values will <br />occur. <br />This road is the main access to the mine facilities so employees, contractors, <br />vendors, supply vehicles and visitors will utilize this road. This road will also <br />be utilized to haul gob from the portal bench to the gob pile. The truck traffic <br />which will utilize this haul road segment will be 18 wheel coal haul trucks. <br />These haul trucks may also be configured to pull eight wheel trailers. This <br />road has two 12-foot lanes with curve widening on curves with a radius of <br />less than 180-feet. A 24-foot wide paved road surface with curve widening <br />should be adequate for the intended traffic. <br />• <br />PR-06 <br />2.05 - 19 - 8/01 <br />/t PPRoVE.D <br />~~/ 5/02 <br />
