The present road has a section which is not wide enough to safely move <br />heavy equipment from the Belt -Out -Back (BOB) and Loadout Stockpile areas to the Refuse Pile and Raw Coal <br />Stockpile areas. TC proposes to place a 350 foot culvert in existing Ditch D-1 on the south side of Haulroad B-1 <br />and backfill over the culvert to widen the existing road. Ditch D-1 is designed to handle a peak flow of 13.8 cfs, so <br />the culvert is oversized at 30 -inches in diameter, with the capacity to handle 22.0 cfs. Because the road/ditch <br />footprint will not be altered, there will be no new disturbance. Fill material for the culvert installation will come <br />from the existing safety berm, since there will no longer be a drop-off from the road to the ditch and the berm will <br />no longer be required <br />This submittal includes revised PAP text and a map addressing the location and configuration of the proposed <br />Haulroad modifications. PAP revisions are limited to pages 2.05-68 and 68.1 and Map 24 (Sheet 1), Surface <br />Facilities. We would like to proceed with this project as soon as possible, to support our ongoing mining activities. <br />We, therefore, appreciate your consideration, cooperation, and assistance in facilitating timely review and approval <br />of this revision application. After you have opportunity to review the accompanying information, please feel free to <br />contact me with any questions or to discuss submittal materials or related matters. <br />Best regards, <br />Twentymile Coal <br />Jerry ton <br />Manage <br />6 Ei ironmental Affairs <br />
