• 2.05.6 <br />(3)(b)(vii) <br />Restoration of the approximate recharge capacity <br />The only area where the surface mining operations may impact the <br />approximate recharge capacity of the permit and adjacent area is in the <br />facilities area. The facilities area will disturb the colluvial deposit which <br />corresponds with the upper perched water bearing zone (see Map 10). This <br />colluvial deposit is believed to be the recharge area for the upper perched <br />water bearing zone. The reclamation plan presented in Section 2.05.4 <br />provides for the restoration of approximate original contours in the facilities <br />area. By restoring the recharge area to approximate original contour the <br />approximate recharge capacity of the facilities area should be restored. <br />The subsidence prediction presented in Volume III, F~ibit 15 concludes that <br />the subsidence impact on near surtace colluvium (the recharge area for the <br />springs) appears to be negligible in areas where the overburden is greater <br />. than 800-feet. <br />(3)(b)(viii) <br />Supplemental PHC Information <br />The probable hydrologic consequences discussion presented above <br />indicates that; 1) no adverse impacts on or off the proposed permit area will <br />occur to the hydrological balance; and 2) no acid forming contamination of <br />groundwater or surface water supplies will occur. Therefore, no <br />supplemental PHC information is required. <br />(3)(c) Permanent Entry Seals <br />The design of permanent entry seals is shown on Map 28 and Map 30 <br />presented in Volume II. Map 30 presents the general specifications for the <br />permanent water tight closure of portal entries. <br /> <br />PR-03 2.05 - 88 - 5/99 <br />
