Ponds and Wetlands Sample Clauses

Ponds and Wetlands. This habitat includes: ⮚ the large wetland complex that consists of the former DEVCO settling pond and Baileys wetland; ⮚ a smaller unnamed wetland complex to the east of the mine surface works; and ⮚ a number of other small wet forested areas as a result of poorly-drained soils and/or ATV rutting scattered throughout the peninsula, some of them only a few dozen square metres in area. Artificial channels that lead into and drain the DEVCO settling pond have become colonized with predominately Typha and represent a third aquatic habitat. The distribution of these wet habitats, as well as the location of Baileys wetland, have been considered in the layout of the proposed surface works including alignment for the new access road from Long Beach Road. The A dominant colony of Typha latifolia colonize the shoreline of the DEVCO settling pond The DEVCO settling pond location of this access road, for example, was aligned to avoid identified wet areas created largely by ATV tracks in the poorly-drained soils and watercourse crossings. In addition, the protection of Baileys wetland was paramount in the design of the tunnel dewatering system. The work undertaken with respect to the latter included geotechnical investigations and work to re-enforce and strengthen the safety factor associated with the existing berm between Baileys wetland and the DEVCO settling pond. As referenced in Section 4.3.4, monitoring suggests that there is both a hydrogeological connection between the DEVCO settling pond and Baileys wetland and some leakage through and/or around the berm and control structure.
