The property of Tommy Newman has been impacted by several prelaw mine portals, one of which is partially open with a very large volume of flowing water at the top of the road. Water is making access to home diicult and is eroding the slope significantly. The property is located at 5142 US- 119 Mayking KY 41837. To reach the site, From intersection of US-119 and KY 15 at Whitesburg travel east approximately 5.192 miles. Make a right turn onto an unmarked gravel road and follow the road to the house site. Site Coordinates: 37.14742603962726 -82.7385113696852 An off-site PRIOIR DISTURBED waste area included to received excess material. It is a previously disturbed site and was designated as a waste area for a previous AML project, Wendell Fields Phase II which has received ATP. Waste Area Coordinates: 37.134072 -82.767047 Project limits include 5.2 acres, with an expected disturbance of 1.00 acres within project boundaries; tree disturbance of 0.5 Acres in a stable area.

Project limits for the offsite waste area(s) include 2.7 acres, with an expected disturbance of 0.5 acres. No tree disturbance is anticipated at the Waste Area.

The Newman project will be reclaiming Mine Portals on the property. These portals have cause drainage issues along with the washing out of the driveway that connects the residence with the main road below. The property has 4 mine portals behind the bench where the home is located that are affecting the homeowner. Four standard Closures will be installed on the existing mine portals at the appropriate locations. 3 portals will be closed with AML standard wildlife closure.

Landscape Allowance is included to address in kind, any shrubbery that is disturbed due to normal reclamation activities. Structure Removal/Replacement is included to relocate/replace features in kind to facilitate normal reclamation activities. Site prep is included as needed to clear existing vegetation. Silt Control is included as an erosion control measure. Earthwork is included for excavation and transportation to the waste area. This also include all final grade at the site and waste area.

The solution presented for the Newman project includes installing 3 Standard Wildlife Closures to the open mine portals (with 40 linear feet of subdrain beneath the closures) and to open the collapsed mine portal and install 8 HDPE for Drainage. To prevent future drainage problems, the plans are to install 20 linear feet of 18 HDPE with a concrete headwall under the driveway where the mine portal is producing water. Also subdrain behind the Newman residence to ensure drainage moving away from the home. At the outlet of all HDPE pipes, class III backfill will be placed to help with erosion control and washout. There are no disturbances of streams or bodies of water on this project
