be submitted in the Annual Reclamation Report. Should a substantial grading problem be detected, • <br />The Division shall be notified and shall be presented with a proposed remedial plan. <br />The probability of slides occurring is relatively low; however, at any time a slide occurs which results <br />from mine-related activities and which may have a potential adverse effect on public property, health, <br />safety, or the environment, SCC will notify the Division of the occurrence of the slide and the remedial <br />measure proposed to be undertaken. <br />Waste materials are ndt used for fill. No excess spoil or waste storage areas are anticipated as a result <br />of mining at Yoast. Mining waste materials consisting of the immediate top and bottom of the coal <br />seam, and carbonaceous shales, when encountered, are buried under a minimum of four feet of <br />noncombustible material (see Tab 21, Minesoil Reconstructionl. Non-coal wastes such as greases, <br />lubricants, paints, flammable liquids, garbage, lumber, and other manmade combustibles are stored in <br />appropriate containers in the vicinity of the shop building. These non-coal wastes will be disposed of <br />off-site by a private licensed contractor. <br />Post Mining Topography <br />General. Backfilling and grading of mined spoil will produce a post mining topography similar to the • <br />original landform. The design of the post mining landform utilizes existing data. The purpose of the <br />design is to construct a post mining landform which is adequate for defining drainage patterns and for <br />review and analysis by regulatory authorities. <br />The design requires adjusting the original landform elevations for the removed coal seam and the swell <br />of the overburden and nonrecoverable coal material. Data necessary to develop the new elevations <br />and calculate volumes are overburden and coal thickness, bottom of the mined seam, original ground <br />surface elevations, and the limits of the area to be mined. All of these data are available in a <br />computerized drill hole data base and from topographic maps. <br />Volume Calculations IPre-Mining Topopraphyl• All of the volumetric calculations used in the <br />development of the post mining topography are shown on Table 20-1, Post Mining Landform Mass <br />Balance. The volumes are broken out into two areas, Area I is the 7995-1999 permit term mining <br />area. Area 2 is the mining area to the south (the 2000 - 2005 and 2005+ permit termsj. Please <br />refer to Exhibit 20-2, Post Mining Topography, for the volume locations. The following methods were <br />used in determining those volumes. • <br />TR-25 3 Revised 09/04 <br />
