JUSTIFICATION OF SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT FOR <br /> NOV C-89-013 <br /> NOV C-89-013 was written for "coal from the conveyor belt spilling below the <br /> belt where a small area exemption had been granted". Mr. Stevens explained <br /> that no sediment control was required below the conveyor belt, because <br /> Mid-Continent had stated that there would be no coal spillage. The small area <br /> exemption approval was based on this condition. During Mr. Stevens ' <br /> inspection on May 24-26, 1989, he observed a considerable amount of coal below <br /> the belt. He showed slides of the area. This was in violation of the permit <br /> requirement and the performance standards. <br /> The representatives from Mid-Continent, Inc. did not contest the fact of the <br /> violation, but they did disagree with the proposed civil penalty. <br /> The proposed civil penalty was: <br /> History $ 50.00 <br /> Seriousness 500.00 <br /> Fault 500.00 <br /> Good Faith 0.00 <br /> TOTAL <br /> History <br /> There has been one NOV during the past twelve months that is no longer in <br /> administrative proceedings. <br /> Seriousness <br /> The operator felt the damage was moderate and duration short. The proposed <br /> civil penalty reflects this-, The coal had spilled a week or two before the <br /> inspection. Although there is no evidence the coal fines drained into Dutch <br /> Creek, the potential for this occurrence was evident. I agree with the <br /> proposed penalty. <br /> Fault <br /> A reduction in fault was requested. The operator stated that in an effort to <br /> reduce the sediment load in the mine water discharge at Point 016 they were <br /> pumping additional water onto the conveyor belt. The coal on the belt was <br /> already saturated and there had never been a problem in the past so they <br /> didn 't expect there to be any spillage or other problems as a result of the <br /> additional load. The belt inspectors were not trained to look for <br /> environmental damages such as the spilled-coal . <br />
