The tipple /loadout facilities include the Run -of -Mine (ROM or "Belt- Out - Back ") stockpile, truck dump, crushing
facilities (primary & secondary), conveying facilities, sampling facilities, finished product (Tipple) stockpile, stoker
belt and dump, stoker product stockpile, conveyor belt and stacker for coal stockpile, train loadout, and trackage,
and access and temporary storage site for cleaning spilled coal from loadout tunnel. Of the above structures (as
discussed in the following sections), the following are identified as existing structures, transferred from Permit C-

Main ROM Coal Stockpile (Located Near Portal) and Stockpile Expansion
Review of coal handling systems and operations resulted in recognition of the need for increased coal stockpile
capacity. In order to provide the required additional capacity, the coal stockpile area was expanded to the north and
west in conjunction with site preparation and grading for the Coal Preparation Plant. Expansion required relocation and
reconstruction of Pond E and the associated ditches, elimination of the segment of haul road which traversed the north
edge of the stockpile area, and limited backfilling and grading work to expand the stockpile area. The stockpile
expansion area was graded so that, the base of the pile slopes to the north toward relocated Haul Road B -2. The
stockpile expansion area is shown on Map 24, and required expansion activities are described under the appropriate
section for each of the effected facilities. The stockpile expansion increased total capacity for the main stockpile area to
approximately 600,000 tons.
Most of the area affected by the ROM stockpile expansion, was previously disturbed; therefore no topsoil remains.
Plant growth media recovery, however, occurred for the small area shown on Map 24, between the existing Pond E
embankment and Haul Road B -2. '.Up to 4,170 cubic yards of plant growth media was recovered and stockpiled in
stockpile (PPSP -2), located to the northeast, from an area approximately 752 x 100 feet (recovery depth approximately
1.5 feet). The reconstruction of Pond E required the removal of approximately 9,300 CY of topsoil from an area
approximately 150 x 7,210 feet, with an average soil recovery depth of approximately 28 inches. Approximately 3,000
CY of the topsoil was placed in Stockpile SF -4, while the remaining 6,300 CY was placed in Stockpile PPSP -1. Table
49a was revised to reflect these topsoil salvage and stockpile volumes.
