Site work for a mixed-use development in Hueysville, Kentucky. Completed plans call for site work for a residential development; and water / sewer project.

The Mark Sparkman Drainage and Portal Reclamation Project consists of installing subdrain around the Mark Sparkman residence and the residence on the adjacent lot (occupied by Mr. Sparkman's daughter to intercept mine drainage and closure of 1 portal. The site is located near Hueysville on KY-550 in Floyd County. The project location is at 37 30' 2.80" N, 82 44' 30.82" W. The 911 address of the Sparkman home is 3767 KY 550, Hueysville KY. A portal in the Elkhorn #1 seam between the residences will be addressed with a wildlife accessible closure. Drainage from the portal will be intercepted at the natural drain adjacent to the portal. An existing compromised drain will be replaced to conduct this mine drainage to the existing drainage system adjacent to KY-550. Subdrains will be installed behind the residences, with drainage being deposited in the roadside ditch adjacent to KY-550 or the natural drain near the portal closure. Waste material will be deposited on a flat, stable area just above the northern residence. No woody material is expected to be encountered, but if generated, will be segregated from the earth waste material and disposed of by burning or otherwise appropriately disposed of. The project site has previously been disturbed by coal mining operations and residential development. Construction disturbances will be kept to a minimum utilizing the approved Best Management practices prior to beginning any major earth disturbance (excluding initial site preparation for access only) until all silt control measures will be installed. These include but are not limited to silt barriers (bales & silt fence). All disturbed areas will be promptly revegetated at the end of construction.
