Before this drainage is allowed to flow into any <br />defined drainage it will be passed though some form of alternative sediment <br />control. This alternative sediment control may include straw dikes, riprap, <br />check dams, mulches, vegetative sediment filter, dugout ponds silt fences or <br />other measures that reduce overland flow velocity, reduce run-off volume or <br />trap sediment. <br />3) Haul Road for gob pile access. <br />A discussion of the haul road for the gob pile access is presented in Volume <br />IV, Coal Mine Waste Bank Final Design for the Bowie No. 2 Mine, prepared <br />by WESTEC. <br />Haul Road Reclamation <br />The haul road from old State Highway 133 to the portal area will not be <br />totally reclaimed. Asphalt surfacing will be removed from the entire road <br />surface. The waste asphalt will either be recycled or placed in the gob pile <br />for final disposal. The road bed will be narrowed from a travel width of over <br />24 feet to a travel width of 14 to 16 feet. The road is to be left in place so the <br />light use roads on the property are reestablished after reclamation. Map 18, <br />Post Mining Topography shows the road is rerouted in the facilities area after <br />the area is reclaimed. The rerouted road is designed to connect to the <br />existing light use roads. This road reclamation plan is compatible with the <br />postminig land use of rangeland and wildlife habitat since roads are <br />necessary to manage both land uses and a light use road network was <br />existing on the property prior to mining. <br />Three culverts will be left in place to provide for drainage from C-Gulch. <br />These culverts are located where the haul road crosses the ephemeral <br />drainage channels. The three culverts (C-C6, C-C8 & C-C9) are 36-inch <br />diameter. All of the culverts are designed to pass the 10 year precipitation <br />event. In a fashion similar to the existing light use road, water bars will be <br />utilized to control the drainage from the postmining light use road. <br />The landowner and the applicant are the same entity. Through this permit <br />application the landowner approves the reclamation plan to leave the <br />culverts and light use road in place. <br />2.05 - 23 - 8/01 <br />
