Candace Thompson <br /> Hydrologist <br /> Mined Land Reclamation <br /> 1313 Sherman Street , Room 423 <br /> Denver, CO 80203 <br /> RE : Technical Revision Request For Light Ilse Road At The Sutev <br /> Refuse Disposal Area . <br /> Dear Ms . Thompson , <br /> Mid-Continent Resources hereby requests a Technical Revision to <br /> Permit #C-017-81 ror the construction of a light use road at the <br /> Sutey Refuse Disposal Area ( Figure 1 ) . This road is needed to <br /> allow access to the new conveyor construction area and the <br /> occasional monitoring of the completed conveyor. <br /> As will be noted on figure I the proposed location of the new <br /> road takes off from the switch--back of the existing roar] . The <br /> location of the new road will lie entirely within our permit <br /> boundary area . The overall grade will be 9 . 5`o with a maximum <br /> pitch grade of 10% ( Figure 2 ) . <br /> The length of the new road will be 1850 feet . Assuming an average <br /> road width of 15 ' , and an additional lb ' for the cuts and fills , <br /> the total acreage of disturbance will be 1 . 27 acres . The ridge <br /> where the road is to be located is composed mainly of Mancos <br /> Shale with very little topsoil available . A conservative average <br /> depth of topsoil in this area is 6" . Therefore, 1030 yards of <br /> topsoil will be removed and stockpiled at the approved Sutey <br /> topsoil location . <br /> The construction sequence for this road will be as follows : <br /> 1 ) All topsoil will be removed and stockpiled . <br /> 2 •) A 24" diameter culvert will be placed at, station 0+00 <br /> ( junction of existing road and new road') . <br /> 3 ) Where cuts art- in unconsolidated material the slope will <br /> be 1V : 1 . 5H. Cuts in Mancos Shale will be 1V : 0 . 25H. <br /> When operations cease, and final reclamation has begun, the road <br /> will be put back to its approximate original contour and <br /> reclaimed. The bonding calculations for this road are as follows : <br /> RECEIVED <br /> 14 AY 2 G 1988 <br /> MINED LAND <br /> tZF(:I AMATirw nnnetnki <br />
