  • Topography Along the Virginia-Kentucky Border
    Preface: Topography along the Virginia-Kentucky border. It took a long time for the Appalachian Mountain range to attain its present appearance, but no one was counting. Outcrops found at the base of Pine Mountain are Devonian rock, dating back 400 million years. But the rocks picked off the ground around Lexington, Kentucky, are even older; this limestone is from the Cambrian period, about 600 million years old. It is the same type and age rock found near the bottom of the Grand Canyon in Colorado. Of course, a mountain range is not created in a year or two. It took them about 400 years to obtain their character, and the Appalachian range has a lot of character. Geologists tell us this range extends from Alabama into Canada, and separates the plains of the eastern seaboard from the low-lying valleys of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Some subdivide the Appalachians into the Piedmont Province, the Blue Ridge, the Valley and Ridge area, and the Appalachian plateau. We also learn that during the Paleozoic era, the site of this mountain range was nothing more than a shallow sea; but during this time, as sediments built up, and the bottom of the sea sank. The hinge line between the area sinking, and the area being uplifted seems to have shifted gradually westward. At the end of the Paleozoric era, the earth movement are said to have reversed, at which time the horizontal layers of the rock were uplifted and folded, and for the next 200 million years the land was eroded, which provided material to cover the surrounding areas, including the coastal plain.

  • I-69 Ohio River Crossing DEIS, Chapter 2 Purpose and Need
    I-69 Ohio River Crossing Project Draft Environmental Impact Statement CHAPTER 2 – PURPOSE AND NEED This chapter describes the need for the project based on I-69 system linkage, maintenance costs of the existing US 41 bridges, existing and future traffic levels of service (LOS), and crash rates. It then presents the project purpose based on the project needs and the performance measures that will be used to evaluate project alternatives. 2.1 INTRODUCTION The project’s purpose and need statement sets the foundation for the project development process. The statement identifies specific transportation problems (needs) that the project will address and describes the desired outcomes or goals (purpose) of the project. The purpose and need statement that was developed for the 2004 Interstate 69 Henderson, Kentucky to Evansville, Indiana Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) was reviewed and revised accordingly based on updated information, policies, and guidelines. The project area used in the evaluation of the purpose and need for the I-69 Ohio River Crossing (ORX) project extends from I-69 (formerly I-164) in Indiana on the south side of Evansville (i.e., northern terminus) across the Ohio River to I-69 (formerly Edward T. Breathitt Pennyrile Parkway) southeast of Henderson, KY (i.e., southern terminus) (Figure 2.2-1). The section of Edward T. Breathitt Pennyrile Parkway between KY 351 and KY 425 that was not re-designated as I-69 has been recently re-designated as US 41. The project area generally encompasses a triangular area that extends from approximately 0.5 mile west of the I-69/US 41/Veterans Memorial Parkway interchange to 0.5 mile east of the I-69/SR 662 interchange in Indiana, and south into Kentucky to I-69 near KY 136.

  • (A) Placement Above Uppermost Aquifer
    AECOM 502-569-2301 tel 500 W Jefferson St. 502-569-2304 fax Suite 1600 Louisville, KY 40202 www.aecom.com October 17, 2018 Big Rivers Electric Corporation Sebree Generating Station 9000 Highway 2096 Robards, Kentucky 42452 Engineer’s Certification of Placement Above the Uppermost Aquifer Existing Green CCR Surface Impoundment EPA Final CCR Rule Sebree Station Robards, Kentucky 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this document is to certify that the Placement above Sebree “Green” Existing CCR Surface Impoundment is in compliance with the Placement above the Uppermost Aquifer requirement of the Final CCR Rule at 40 CFR §257.60. Presented below is the project background, summary of findings, limitations and certification. 2.0 BACKGROUND In accordance with 40 CFR §257.60, the owner/operator of an existing CCR Surface Impoundment must demonstrate that the base of the unit is located no less than 1.52 meters (five feet) above the upper limit of the uppermost aquifer, or must demonstrate that there will not be an intermittent, recurring, or sustained hydraulic connection between any portion of the base of the CCR unit and the uppermost aquifer due to normal fluctuations in groundwater elevations (including the seasonal high water table). In accordance with 40 CFR §257.60(c)(1), the demonstration must be made by October 17, 2018. If such demonstration cannot be made, the unit is subject to the closure or retrofit requirements of 40 CFR §257.101 3.0 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS Available data regarding site groundwater, site geology, and physical limits of the unit for the Green Surface Impoundment do not evidence a 5-foot separation between the base of the impoundment and the uppermost limit of the uppermost aquifer and they do not support a lack of hydraulic connectivity between the unit and the aquifer as specified in 40 CFR §257.60(a).
