Wes( Elk Mine <br />(10) Return of Coal Processing Waste to Abandoned Workings <br />MCC does not return coal processing waste generated at West Elk Mine to the underground <br />workings. All coal refuse is disposed of in the lower refuse disposal area. <br />(11) Disposal of Non-Coal Waste <br />Temporary disposal of non-coal waste (trash, garbage, lumber or other items identified in Rule <br />4.11.4) is in a solid waste compactor which is located in one of the concrete bins near the portal <br />area. The location of these bins is identified on Map 53 as "Dumpster and Materials Storage <br />Bunker Area. " The compactor system is designed to handle all West Elk Mine solid waste <br />including spools, pallets and some metals. There are several trash barrels/small dumpsters for <br />employee use in the facilities area, but these are relocated when full to the compactor. The roll- <br />off unit for the compactor is picked up by a contracted disposal firm when it is full, and replaced <br />with another unit. Final disposal of non-coal waste is at the Delta County Landfill, a State <br />approved facility. No solid waste disposal (as addressed in Rule 4.11.4) is allowed at any refuse <br />disposal area. <br />2.05-47 Rev. 1IR14. 03106, 04106 & 05/06• PRIO: 118109- TRIM-08109-7W119
