DkP I. OF NATURAL RESOURCES <br />FROM: Brad Brown <br />Seneca Coals, Ltd. <br />This is to confirm our phone conversation on Thursday, June 25th concerning <br />the coal shot that was shot before the schedule posted For Seneca. <br />On that morning our shotfire was instructed to load the coal in the 650 pit. <br />Z checked the shooter at 8:00 a.m. and had noticed that the temporary haul road <br />that runs thru the pit was going to come close to the shot. The State Iaw requires <br />a 25 foot distance be maintained between roads and loaded holes; although I'm sure <br />when the law was written they had public roads in mind not temporary pit roads. <br />The road in the pit was approximately 15 feet from the loaded holes. The Shot- <br />fire thought we were going to shoot before the trucks came into the pit; but this <br />was not the case. Trucks were sent into the pit and the Safety Committee man for <br />our truck drivers commented that the loaded holes were too close to the road. We <br />told the truck drivers to come on thru and we would shoot as soon as they left the <br />pit. <br />At that time, I called you. <br />I am enclsoing a copy of the shot sketch and report. <br /> <br /> <br />
