Domestic Water. WFC is evaluating the possibility of providing the potable water by drilling a <br />water well near the facilities area, a storage tank and chlorination system or by extending the <br />Town of Nucla water line to the facility. <br />Solid Wastes. Solid waste will be picked up by the local waste disposal contractor for disposal <br />in the Montrose County Sanitary Landfill. The landfill is privately owned and operates under <br />the regulations mandated by the State of Colorado and Montrose County. Solid wastes not <br />suitable for disposal at the landfill will be transported to and disposed of in suitable, licensed <br />facilities under the applicable Federal and State regulations. When practicable, solid wastes will <br />be separated for recycling. <br />Fuel Storage. Three above - ground fuel tanks will be utilized. Two tanks of approximately <br />12,000 gallons capacity will be used for diesel storage and a tank of approximately 1,000 gallons <br />capacity will be used for gasoline storage. One of the diesel tanks and the gasoline tank will be <br />located at the fuel and lubricant storage and dispensing facility proximal to the truck shop. The <br />second diesel tank will be located near the pit to facilitate fueling for trucks and loader. This <br />tank will be mounted on skids so that it may be advanced as needed to remain near the active <br />mine area. Both sets of tank s will be enclosed by berms and will have spill prevention and <br />safety protection devices as mandated by the appropriate regulatory authorities.. Additionally, <br />within the shop NHN will utilize a waste oil heat system comprised of 1 -250 gallon day tank, <br />and 2 -1000 gallon storage tanks. Spill prevention and containment measures will be <br />implemented under the NHN Mine Spill Prevention Control and Counter - measure (SPCC) Plan. <br />Coal Handling Structures. WFC has no proposed coal handling structures. The coal from the <br />mine pit is hauled in highway trucks to the power plant for processing and use. <br />Support Facilities and Utility Installations. All support facilities used in connection with the <br />operation of the mine, including but not limited to, mine buildings, equipment storage facilities, <br />sheds, shops and other buildings will be designed, constructed or reconstructed and located to <br />minimize or control erosion and siltation, water pollution and damage to public or private <br />property. <br />Section 2.05.3(3) Page 3 November 2011 <br />
