Demolition rubble generated during reclamation may be stored on site and used as fill material when <br />compatible with the reclamation plan. Scrap metals and other materials and equipment generated <br />during facility dismantlement with intrinsic value will be salvaged or recycled when feasible. <br />Temporary storage for demolition rubble and salvaged materials will be on previously disturbed <br />ground in close proximity to their source. Such storage will be in a manner that does not pose a <br />threat to fish, wildlife, and related environmental values. <br />IV.P Equipment and material storage facilities <br />The majority of equipment and material storage facilities encompass the D- Portal Area. <br />Minor storage of materials, equipment, and supplies may occur throughout the mine site. Examples <br />of such storage include roles of conveyor belt at transfer stations, straw bales and mulching <br />materials commensurate with their use, clean rock for rip -rap and sediment control. Temporary <br />storage of equipment, materials, and supplies will also be allowed adjacent to facilities to facilitate <br />construction and repair on an as- needed basis. <br />Other storage areas for equipment and materials include the 'blisters' along the haul road. Blister <br />#2 (a.k.a. Treasure Island) serves as storage for outdated equipment, parts, and materials awaiting <br />salvage and sale. Blister #3 has been designated for road base storage. Other materials and <br />equipment such as reclamation materials, drill steel, water pipe, and contractor equipment and <br />supplies may also be stored on the blisters. These blister areas are not to be used for the storage <br />of liquids or other materials in a manner that could damage fish, wildlife, and related environmental <br />values. <br />More specific locations and containment structures are maintained for petroleum and liquid <br />materials. Such liquid storage areas are identified on Map 15 for the D -Portal Area. <br />Other bulk liquid storage facilities include the fuel storage at the dozer shop currently located at <br />Refuse Area 5a (petroleum), deicing storage tank by the loadout, underground bulk fluid storage at <br />SH -2 near the B -Vent Shaft #2, and the hydrochloric acid tank by the water treatment facilities. <br />Magnesium chloride, or other chemical road dust suppressant, is stored on an as- needed basis in <br />tanks placed at the entrance to 'blister' #2 in a location draining to sediment pond DP -1. Limited <br />quantities of containerized reagents and petroleum products also occupy many of the various <br />buildings scattered throughout the mine site. LPG bulk tanks are also located north of Slot Storage. <br />Water storage facilities are discussed elsewhere but include the raw water tank, potable water tank, <br />and the lagoon. <br />Minor Revision #147 (05/2011) IV -55 <br />
