Spring 2014 Subsidence and Geologic Field Observations <br />South of Divide and Dry Fork Mining Areas (E -Seam) <br />panoramic image obtained from this same location during the spring 2014 field visit. A <br />comparison of the two images finds no noticeable differences. <br />4.16 Photographic Observation Point 7 <br />Approximately 100 feet north of the Photographic Observation Point 6 is another new <br />photographic observation location. This location provides a northeast to south panoramic view <br />(Figure 23) from the Ragged Mountains (background left) to Coal Mountain (background right). <br />This vantage point also allows a view of the upper portions of the Dry Fork drainage and its <br />unnamed tributaries. Views from this location present the topography over the central and eastern <br />portion of E -seam Longwall Panels E3 through ET Figure 24 is the panoramic image obtained <br />from this same location during the spring 2014 field visit. A comparison of the two images finds <br />no noticeably differences. <br />4.17 Traverse J -J' <br />Traverse J -J' is the fifth of five named traverses that originate from Traverse C -C'. This traverse <br />allows access to MDWs E5 -8, E5 -9, E5 -10 and E5 -11. The spring 2013 visit to these MDW pads <br />above unmined longwall panel E -5 were the first by WWE and represent baseline conditions. This <br />traverse was again observed during the spring 2014 field visit. No cracking or extraordinary <br />features were observed or expected given that the underlying E -seam Longwall Panel E5 had not <br />yet been mined in this area. <br />831 - 032.796 Wright Water Engineers, Inc.
