Metal Mining SWMP Guidance Document
Page 15
a. Documentation of Permission: The plan shall include documentation of permission from the
land owner, if the remediation work is undertaken by someone other than the land owner.
In cases when remediation is being performed by an entity other than the land owner, written permission from
the land owner for the remediation project should be submitted to the Division with the SWMP.
b. Photographs: The plan shall include photographs documenting the condition of the inactive
mine site before any remedial action has occurred. For recently active mines, photographs of
the active mining phase may be substituted.
Photographs should adequately portray significant potential pollution sources at the site before remedial actions
begin. These photographs will be used to asses the magnitude of the remediation project and to track the
progress of the project.
c. Description of Remedial Action: The plan shall describe the remedial action that will take place
to minimize or eliminate the water quality impacts from the mine waste.
The description of remedial action is a narrative statement of the goal of the remediation project and the general
scale of the remediation based on existing conditions.
The description shall include:
- Remediation Goal Statement,
The statement of the project goal should summarize the planned tactics for handling the various pollution
sources at the site. This should also include any plans for how the remediation may facilitate future land uses,
as well as a proposed schedule for the project, including major benchmarks for remediation activities.
- the characteristics of the mineralogic content of the mine-waste, and estimated volume of
the waste;
This section should include a summary of any available information on the metals, and other pollutants capable
of being leached or eroded from the mine-waste, including any acid-generating materials. An estimate of the
total volume of material to be remediated should be divided into separate estimates for material having
significantly different compositions and final remediation goals.
- description of any materials that will be mixed into the mine waste on site; and
Any materials that will be imported to the site to be mixed with the mine waste should be noted (including
manure, fertilizer, fly ash, etc.). If appropriate, BMPs that will be implemented to reduce the potential of
imported material to contribute pollutants to stormwater discharges should be developed and noted in the
"description of BMPs" section below. BMPs should address imported material stockpiles, use, and final
stabilization, as appropriate.
- estimated surface area of the final site, and estimated angle of side slopes.
Provide an estimate of the final surface area that will be affected by the remediation project and an estimate of
the angle of the proposed side slopes.
