Site work for a water / sewer project in Pikeville, Kentucky. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

This Reclamation Project is located near Dorton in Pike County at 1679 HWY 611, Pikeville, KY 41501. GPS coordinates are 37.3160N, 82.5204W. The waste area is located adjacent to US-23 at GPS coordinates 37.2704N, 82.5974W. A slide has occurred immediately upslope of and impacting the residence. To abate this problem, the slide material will be removed and a non-reinforced block wall (Type II) will be installed behind the residence. Subdrain will collect drainage from the yard and wall area and conduct the drainage to the natural creek via installed pipes/features. The access from KY-611 will be replaced for access to the work site. The disturbance at the project site is expected to encompass approximately 0.5 acres. Waste generated by construction activities will be transported to an approved waste area approximately 6.9 miles from the project site. The project site has previously been disturbed by coal mining operations and residential development. The waste site has been previously disturbed by coal mining, landowner development and AML waste placement activities. 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). No trees greater than 3" diameter at breast height will be cut as part of this project. All disturbed areas (including waste areas) will be promptly revegetated at the end of construction. Cover crop is also provided in order to provide quick vegetative cover on any disturbed areas that will go undisturbed for at least two weeks, but not be ready for application of permanent revegetation. This project does not disturb natural streams, and sediment control will be provided using silt bales and fence.
