Warehouse Area No. 2 -This SAE consists of approximately 1.5 acres located between the Stoker Pad and the Warehouse/Shop SAE's. There is little or no drainage from the flat, graveled area, and any flow from the area would be controlled and treated by either the Stoker Pad silt fence or the warehouse exemption rock check dam. Tipple No. 2 Loadout Tunnel -The Tipple Loadout Tunnel SAE consists of small disturbed area surrounding the tunnel on the east side as identified on Permit Renewal Map 5 (Roads, Powerlines and Facilities). The sunrounding area is well-vegetated and rock/gravel filter dams have been installed in the ditches along the railroad track. This SAE was approved by the CMLRD on June 23, 1988 with MR 88-27. Runoff from from a 10-year, 24-hour event for this 0.10 acre exemption area would be negligible. Pond B Access Pad -This SAE covers about 0.3 acres adjacent to Pond B. The area is gently sloping, with heary vegetative cover on adjacent areas bordering Foidel Creek, acting as a filter to prevent sediment contributions to the stream. CYCC constructed a berm and rock filter to further control and treat the anticipated 0.01 acre-feet of runoff; generated by the 10-year, 24-hour event. Pond D East Area -The Pond D East Area 5AE covers 0.7 acres adjacent to the emergency spillway, overland conveyor, and haulroad. Runoff from this azea flows along the haulroad and collects between the haulroad and the Pond D embankment, immediately to the east of the culvert, which conveys Pond D discharge to Foidel Creek. The area is vegetated, and a sump and rock filter treat the anticipated 0.04 acre -feet of runoff from the 10-year, 24-hour design storm event. Pond D West Area -This SAE covers 0.7 acres between the haulroad and pond embankment discharge point, along with a portion of the overland belt. CYCC constmcted a rock filter to treat any of the anticipated 0.04 acre-feet, 10- year, 24-hour runoff from the area. Pond F and Wastewater Treatment Faciliri -The Pond F/Wastewater Treatment Facility SAE covers approximately 5 acres and is located southwest and northwest of Pond F. The SAE area consists of a 0.5 acre paved parking lot and slope which drains down to the west embankment of Pond F, the outslopes and tops of the ponds of the wastewater treatment system, and the building and roads associated with the treatment facility. The building pads and roads are graveled, minimizing the potential for sediment loss and transport from the area. Any drainage from this area will flow along the north side of Pond F and light-use road railroad embankment. The area is well vegetated and arock-check dam will filter any surface mnoffprior to discharge. Overland Belt West -This SAE covers approximately 0.5 acres between the haulroad embankment and railroad tracks west of the Haulroad C rail crossing. Runoff from this relatively flat area would be very limited, with estimated runoff for the l0-year, 24-hour event of 0.03 acre-feet. Any limited drainage flows would be treated by a rock filter. Haulroad C Toosoil Pile -The Haulroad C Topsoil Stockpile SAE covers approximately 0.3 acres between the haulroad and Foidel Creek, and is located across from Pond C. Runoff from the area is approximately O.OI acre-feet for the l0-year, 24-hour event, with mnoff flows to be controlled and filtered by a berm, rock filters, and the established vegetative cover. Scoria Storage Area (TR OS-451- A portion of the former Haul Road A northwest of Pond C is used as a storage area for the scoria and gravel materials used in maintaining mine roads. The Scoria Storage area covers approximately 0.87 acres. The surface of this area is graded so that most minor drainage is naturally contained. Runoff from any significant storm event drains to the south and east, where an existing berm routes runoff flows to a sump and collection ditch designed to treat the mnoff from a 10-year, 24-hour stone event. From this ASC, the ditch directs drainage flows through awell-established vegetative filter to Foidel Creek. The SAE demonstration for the Scoria Storage Area is provided in Exhibit 8U. Storage and Training Area (Trudv's Corner - TR OS-45) - An area located east of Pinnacle Peak and northeast of Pond A previously disturbed and used in conjunction with historic surface mining activities (Tmdy's Comer), is currently utilized as a materials storage and training area. This area encompasses approximately 0.78 acres. Drainage from this area flows to the west to an existing drainage ditch along the Pond A access road, then approximately 0.15 miles through the vegetated ditch and awell-established vegetative filter to Pond A.
