<br />Mr. Larry M. Reschke <br />-5- <br />II. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE AHR'S AND MONITORING <br /> <br />September 5, 1985 <br />Next year, things which need to be included in the report include: <br />A. A larger map (1" = 1000' scale perhaps) detailing the locations of <br />the ground and surface water monitoring sites. This new map should <br />include the labeled locations of all monitoring sites, including the <br />Nelson Ditch and Spring No. 5 which are not included in the present <br />map. <br />B. Height of the casing at each well and piezometer, and ground surface <br />elevation. <br />C. Diagram depicting the water levels in the sediment pond and sediment <br />pond piezometers. This would best be shown as cross sections (drawn <br />to scale) for each quarter. Water level elevations need to be <br />included. <br />D. Potentiometric surface map overlying a contour map of the refuse <br />disposal area. <br />E. A rating curve should be constructed for the lower Ward Creek <br />station so that flow may be reported rather than the sites' gage <br />height. <br />F. Measurements of drainage basins should be done on the same day, <br />starting at the upstream site and working down. <br />G. Discharge measurements at Nelson Ditch should be made whenever <br />sampling is done. <br />H. Spring No. 5 should be visited on a regular basis and sampled as per <br />the permit requirements. <br />III. MONITORING REDUCTION REQUEST <br />Recommendations are as follows: <br />A. Refuse Piezometers - Quarterly water levels, field parameters and an <br />annual full suite ground water quality analysis from piezometers <br />R-1, R-3 and R-6, which will be taken in June. Piezometers R-2, R-4 <br />and R-5 will be measured for depth to water on a quarterly basis. <br />Any persistent springs or seeps should be noted on a map of the pile. <br />B. Pond Piezometers - Monthly water levels and semi-annual field <br />parameters on piezometers P-1 and P-3. Field parameters will be <br />measured in June and October. If an unusual increase in water level <br />is noted in any piezometers, field parameters will be measured <br />monthly. Piezometer P-4 may be dropped from the monitoring program. <br />C. Coal Seam Completions - Quarterly water levels and semi-annual field <br />parameters on Wells D-l, E-1 and F-1. Field parameters will be <br />measured in June and October. <br />
