Possibly rectangular pillars rather than <br />the 80' x 80' C.L. pillars will be developed. This <br />concept is discussed briefly in the permit application. <br />4. Start development oC 4 East rooms. Seeps 1. to 4 would <br />then repeat. <br />Mining should be limited to the coal between 5 East rooms and <br />3 East rooms or possibly just below 3 East room.: during the three <br />months the Technical Revision is in affect (November 1981 to January 1982). <br />Without secondary mining, work would proceed through 2 East and <br />1 East rooms due to lower coal recovery percentage (2 East and 1 East <br />roams would be located proportionally down the existing north five entry <br />system). <br />Coal north of crosscut 25 (see Clio attachment) is not considered <br />abandoned. Blue Ribbon will attempt Co reach this area through 3rd North, <br />the planned development west of the current north development. Utilizing <br />an approach from shallower cover, additional mining experience, and an <br />improved mining plan based on experience, this coal should be recoverable. <br />Thanks for your cooperation. <br />Si.ncerel,o yours, <br />ln~,Q.F.~4.;.
