h. Flows from Culvert C-3 enter the sediment pond close to the <br />• outlet. The Division feels short circuiting will occur. In <br />addition, the pond inlet of this culvert as shown on Map 12, <br />appears to be in an area where the pond embankment is located. <br />Haw will flows reach the oond? <br />As shown on the Mine Facilities Map (Map 12), the location of <br />Culvert No. 3 has been revised to prevent short circuiting and to <br />easily route flow to the northwest corner of the sediment pond. <br />i. Drainage from the area labelled as General Use Area and Coal <br />Storage will not pass through a sediment pond. Rule 4.05.2 <br />requires that all surface drainage from disturbed areas shall <br />pass through a sediment pond. <br />Response: Drainage from the General Use Area is routed through the <br />"catchment basin" as shown on the Mine Facilities Map (Map 12). <br />Peerless requests a small area exemption for the area. The <br />"catchment basin" contains approximately 0.03 Ac-Ft of volume, <br />which is adequate to control runoff from the General Use Area. <br />j. Peerless must commit to submitting quarterly pond inspection <br />reports. <br />Response: Peerless will submit quarterly pond inspections to the <br />Division. A copy of the standard report form is attached as <br />Figure I-3, Quarterly Pond Inspection Report, for reference. <br />7. Peerless should commit to submitting as-built haul road and <br />sediment pond designs stamped by a registered professional <br />engineer. <br />Response: Peerless will submit as-built designs for the haul road <br />and sediment pond following issuance of a mining and reclamation <br />. permit. These designs will be certified by a professional <br />engineer. <br />-12- <br />
