• conveys high flows across the road without eroding the road. Straw bale dikes are <br />installed along each edge of the dip section to settle and filter roadway drainage before <br />it goes to Coal Creek. A drainage ditch is installed on the west side of the road from <br />the dip section to the rail loop crossing, except along the northern 700' where a ditch is <br />installed along the east side of the road. The remainder of the road is elevated above <br />the adjacent ground to provide runoff drainage. See Appendix 13-1 for design of <br />drainage along the road. <br />Surfacing -Construction details are unavailable but the roadbase appears to be 1 -1'/i <br />of pit run gravel. The surface of the road is 3/4" roadbase gravel. <br />Maintenance -The road is watered regularly during use and graded as necessary. Mg- <br />CI is applied to the surface once or twice a year to reduce the watering requirements. <br />When grading the road the silt deposited on the dip section is graded off and the bales <br />are replace as necessary. <br />Structure <br />Location <br />Construction Dates <br />Haul Road 4 <br />(Formerly Access <br />Roads #3a & b) <br />Coal Canyon, Exhibit 9A 1980 and prior to CRDA 3 <br />51 and 52 construction. <br />• Description -This road is a portion of a BLM public access road that leads up Coal <br />Creek. The portion of the BLM road covered by this haul road designation begins <br />southwest of the Roadside North Portals operation area where Haul Road 4 turns off o <br />Haul Road No. 5 and leads along Coal Creek to the proposed Cameo Refuse Disposal <br />Area (CRDA) No. 3. Powderhorn upgrades and maintains this portion of the public roa <br />as necessary and will leave in the upgraded condition when finis ed using the road. <br />Currently 2600' have been upgraded to the west end of CRDA 1 ~ ~°F"`"" '`° ``/`~-'~~°~ <br />Design and Construction -The alignment of this road has generally followed 17he long <br />term location for a narrow public access road. The road follows Coal Creek and <br />crosses the creek twice in the process. The maximum grade on the road is 4% and the <br />average grade is 1.7%. Due to the relatively level areas and the pre-existence of a <br />road minimal grading was necessary or will be necessary to establish the upgraded <br />road. The roadway width is approximately 30'. Figure 13-2 is a typical cross section for <br />the design of this road. <br />Drainage -Drainage control for this road includes ditches along one or both sides of <br />the road, two creek crossings and 4 locations for cross drainage. The ditches along <br />both sides of the road will be the typical drainage shown on Figure 13-3. Two 81 x 59" <br />CMP culverts were install for the lower creek crossing, see Appendix 13-1 for design <br />information. The second Creek crossing is a "dip section" consisting of 6-36" <br />f <br />d <br /> <br />T13-2-3 (Rev. 1 /00 ) <br />
