The security building will be a 12 x 40 foot wood -frame structure on a 15 x 45 foot, 4 -inch thick concrete slab. • A modular bathhouse 24 feet wide and 70 feet long will be placed between the shop and existing bathhouse. The temporary building will be placed on 9 concrete sleepers poured on 8 foot centers. Each sleeper will be 20 feet long, 2 feet wide and 1 foot deep. • A pump house at the Wadge Pond will be constructed to pump water out of the pond to the 1 million gallon water storage tank. The pump house will be 20 feet by 30 feet and be constructed on a concrete slab of the same size 8 inches in thickness. Mine facilities in the north end were previously bonded under the former Seneca II Mine. On approval of the PSCM Permit, the performance bond for these facilities and the associated disturbance areas were transferred to the SCCC. A description of those features /structures and the associated bond amounts are presented in Exhibit 2.05.3 -E1, Mine Facilities (North End) Details. The southern portal area and related surface facilities are located in the W'h of Section 2 and the E'' /z of Section 3, T6N, R87W, and in the W% of Section 35 and the E'h of Section 34, TSN, R87W adjacent to Little Grassy Creek. All facilities have been located to maintain a minimum buffer zone of 100 feet between the facilities disturbance limits and Little Grassy Creek. An oval pit will be excavated to expose the Wadge Coal Seam, develop a face -up area, and provide access to the coal seam and mine portals. The perimeter of the face -up area will be marked with signs warning persons entering the area that blasting may occur. Warning signs will comply with applicable provisions of Rule 4.02, and will be maintained so long as the associated dangers exist. Four portals and main entries will be established for mine access: • Intake Air • Men and Material Access (temporary belt for initial development) • Belt -Entry • Return Air (main exhausting fan) The overburden material excavated from the face -up area will be used to build pads to the north and to the south of the face -up area. The pads will be utilized for coal stockpile areas and for mine facilities. Other mine facilities will be located in close proximity to the face -up and coal stockpile areas, as shown and listed on Map 2.05.3 -M1A, Mine Facilities Map (South End). The southern portal area surface facilities are projected to include: TR -01 -10 2.05 -11 Revision 02/11
