water storage tank and to the 016 ponds will be accomplished during completion of this Project. These roads will be reclaimed in a manner similar to that employed on Roads E, F, G. The roads will be graded to a configuration so that they have a slope of approximately 5% to the outside, any culverts will be removed and the road surface will be ripped to twelve to eighteen inches on no greater than thirty inch centers. In order to facilitate access to the north portion of Coal Basin and to the Rock Dump Facility, low water crossings will be constructed; one on Dutch Creek, and one on the North Fork of Dutch Creek. The crossings will effectively replace the culverts previously removed. The low water crossings will be constructed approximately fifty feet upstream of the current culvert locations in order to take advantage of the stream gradient and surrounding land forms. Each low water crossing will be armored with appropriately sized rock. Armoring of the stream bed and entry and exits will be accomplished.
