MR -128 <br />and shaft liner were effective in stopping groundwater from entering the <br />shaft. There is no flow at the bottom of the shaft. <br />The Hubbard Creek vent shaft has been backfilled a capped with concrete. <br />This backfill will protect the integrity of the grouted liner to contain the water <br />bearing zone. The concrete cap will ensure no surface run -off will enter the <br />backfilled shaft. Thus, the shaft backfill and concrete shaft will protect the <br />hydrologic balance. <br />The quality of ground water that comes in contact with coal seams and <br />surrounding strata is generally degraded. Bear Coal Company prepared a <br />study of the potential effects of mining on the B -Seam aquifer (J. E. Stover & <br />Associates letter to DMG dated October 23, 1995). A correlation was made <br />between the geochemical characteristics of the roof, coal and interburden <br />and the degradation of the quality of water in the coal seam. Soluble <br />calcium, magnesium and sodium appears to degrade the quality of ground <br />water that comes in contact with the disturbed coal seam and surrounding <br />strata. This degradation of ground water quality is considered typical for <br />water which seeps into the mines in the Paonia Somerset area. <br />The Terror Creek vent shaft will be raise bored 550 feet deep to an 18.5 -foot <br />finished diameter. The shaft will be Tined with nine inches of concrete. A <br />geotechnical hole approved with MR -119 will provide hydro - geologic <br />information regarding the depth and location of water bearing zones. This <br />information will be used to design a ring grouting program to establish a grout <br />barrier in the water bearing zones prior to construction of the shaft. To <br />prevent surface drainage from entering the shaft, the concrete collar will be <br />extended above the ground surface. During idle periods, a screen will be <br />placed on top of the concrete shaft. Water inflows during shaft reaming will <br />flow down the shaft to the underground workings. Additionally, after shaft <br />construction is complete, flow at the bottom of the shaft will be monitored <br />and results submitted to the DRMS on a monthly basis. <br />The quality of springs and seeps should not be degraded by the coal mining <br />operation. As explained in Section 2.04.7, the primary source of water for <br />the springs are unconsolidated quaternary deposits. These deposits should <br />not be affected by the mine operation to the extent that the quality of the <br />spring water would be degraded. <br />2.05 - 101 01/13/12 <br />
