44,03 ROADS <br />4.03.2 Access Roads. <br />(1) (a) CWI has constructed a road accessing mine facilities <br />(herein after referred to as mine facilities access <br />road). Refer to Maps 8-1, SA-10, and 8A-11. <br />CWI has also constructed two roads accessing the waste <br />storage area. One was constructed in 1978 and accessed <br />the old waste storage area (herein after referred to as <br />old waste storage access road). In 1984, another road <br />was constructed to access the west ridge waste storage <br />area (herein after referred to as waste storage north <br />access road). Refer to Maps SA-12 and 6A-2E. <br />An additional road was constructed in 1978 to access <br />sedimentation ponds lk3 and X64 (herein after referred to <br />as Ponds 4k3 and 9?4 access road). Refer [o Maps 8A-12. <br />Upon construction of the rock slope portals and en- <br />tries, the portal level access road would be cut ap- <br />proximately four feet for a length of approximately 160 <br />feet near the proposed intake portal and cut approxi- <br />mately five feet for a length of approximately 140 feet <br />near the proposed return portal, allowing room for <br />• traffic at Che new portals. Refer to the Golder Asso- <br />ciates designs in the Mine Facilities Appendix in Vol- <br />ume 8A for further information regarding the modifica- <br />tion of the portal level access road. <br />All roads have been designed, constructed, and main- <br />tained to control erosion and siltation, pollution of <br />water, and darn age to public and private property. Spe- <br />cific requirements will be addressed within [his Sec- <br />tion 4.03.2. <br />(b) The access roads do not cause damage to Eish, wildlife <br />or related environmental values. The roads minimize <br />contributions of suspended solids to stream flow and <br />runoff outside the permit area. Specific requirements <br />will be addressed within this Section 4.03.2. <br />(c) The access roads were designed using accepted engineer- <br />ing practices, considering traffic, weight, and speed <br />of vehicles. <br />(d) The access roads have been designed and constructed in <br />accordance with 4.03.2 unless so noted. The roads are <br />environmentally sound and structurally stable. <br />• Revised 08/01/84 <br />Revised 07/13/87 <br />Revised 10/01/87 <br />14 <br />
