• Bear Coal Company will maintain this main road along with other roads <br />throughout the life of the mine with repairs including blading, filling <br />of potholes, and replacement of road surface material as necessary. <br />Likewise, watering for dust control will be implemented as necessary. <br />As discussed in section 2.05.5, the main access and haul road will be <br />left in place after the completion of mining to retain access into the <br />area to complement the post-mining land use of potential limited <br />residential use. <br />4.03.2 Access Roads <br />As discussed in Section 4.03.1, Haul Roads, Bear Coal Company will <br />utilize the haul road as the main access road into the property. Aside <br />from this main road, an access road will be necessary to connect the <br />actual mine facilities with the planned portal. The location of the <br />access road is shown on the Mine Facilities Map (Map 10). The access <br />• road will be utilized and maintained to control or minimize erosion, <br />siltation, air and water pollution, and damage to public or private <br />property. <br />The grade alignment and other design criteria of the access road will be <br />adequate for the volume of traffic and the weight and speed of the <br />vehicles. Most traffic will consist of pickup trucks and miscellaneous <br />service vehicles. Drainage will be maintained by the use of culverts <br />and ditches to control runoff. As shown on the Mine Facilities Map (Map <br />10), the access road is located on an existing road to minimize any new <br />construction and possible erosion. <br />The Bear Coal Company will maintain the access road throughout the life <br />of the operation with repairs including blading, filling of potholes, <br />and replacement of the road surface material as necessary. Likewise, <br />watering for dust control will be implemented as necessary. <br />• The access road to the portal area will be reclaimed following mining, <br />as described in Section 2.05.5. <br />4.03-2 <br />
