The Board recognizes that no <br /> one factor is necessarily determinative, but that each <br /> determination will be based on site-specific conditions. Factors to <br /> be included in the determination if a mine will be considered for <br /> temporary cessation, include, but are not limited to the following: <br /> 1.13.2 Indications of Temporary Cessation <br /> (1) there are no personnel working at the site for one hundred eighty <br /> (180)consecutive days; <br /> (2) there are only security personnel at the site; <br /> (3) there are personnel other than security people at the site, but they <br /> are engaged in activities which can be described as maintenance or <br /> housekeeping, or related activity; <br /> (4) there are personnel at the site, but they are engaged in activities <br /> which are not significantly moving the site towards completion of the <br /> mining operation.
