Road), Maps 70-75 (Refuse Haul Road and Plant Access Road), Map 82 (Refuse Area), Map 90 <br />(Alluvial Well Area), and Map 150 (B-Seam ventilation shaft facility and access road). There was no <br />topsoil at the Ventilation Entry Area or along the Ventilation Entry Access Road. In the refuse <br />disposal area, where thick deposits of topsoil or material suitable for topsoil are found, only as much <br />material as required to obtain a uniform reclaimed topsoil depth (close to the average topsoil depth) <br />was removed. Only deposits located in areas that would be disturbed for other reasons were utilized <br />for reclamation. The remainder of the material was separately removed, stockpiled and replaced as <br />subsoil or cover material (see Section 11.1.7.b Topsoil Handling). Appendix V-1 tabulates haul road <br />topsoil volume and mapping area for the existing stockpiles #1 to #11 and future stockpiles #12 to <br />#14. <br />The stripping of material to be used as cover for special non-coal wastes (Section 4.09) or coal waste <br />banks (Section 4.10) in the waste disposal area was done after the topsoil was stripped. Material <br />which was to be stored was treated in the same manner as a permanent topsoil stockpile. Since the <br />thickness of available cover material varied, the stripping depths were varied in order to obtain <br />enough material to provide the required cover. <br />TABLE V-3 <br />SUMMARY OF DISTURBED AREAS <br />DESCRIPTION AREA (ACRES) REFERENCE <br />"D" Portal Area 39.09 Maps 23-28 <br />Water Tank Area & access Road 8.17 Maps 52-54 <br />Haul Road & Plant Access Road 17.64 Maps 70 & 71 <br />Haul Road (County Road to Refuse Area) 41.95* Maps 71-75 <br />Refuse Area 513.00* Map 76 <br />East Portal/Ventilation Entry Area & road 2.86 Maps 85 & 88 <br />B-Vent Shaft (#1) facility & access 1.37 Map 151 <br />B-Vent Shaft #2, SH-1, SH-2, & road 1.60 Map 155 <br />Alluvial Well Area & Access Road 1.80 Maps 90 & 91 <br />Overland Conveyor Access-Maintenance Rd.** 36.23 Maps 106-113 <br />Slot Storage Facility 8.00 Map 105 <br />Halandras Trash Dump 12.40 Map 136 <br />Return shafts 4.55 Map 147 <br />Degas, development drilling, nitrogen injection <br />holes & rock dust facilities 103.05 Map 147 <br />Staging/laydown areas 32.82 Map 147 <br />TOTAL 824.53 <br />Notes: <br />* Total for mine life. <br />** The loadout tower and associated disturbances are included with the overland <br />conveyor.
