The first phase of the gas well drilling program is to <br /> drill two holes into the gob areas of the 101 and 102 longwall <br /> panels as indicated on the map at Enclosure 3 to release the gas <br /> that is constantly building up in those areas. The second phase <br /> will be to drill wells into other gob areas, such as in to the <br /> 103 panel gob area, and to test the results of drilling into the <br /> unmined coal to determine the effectiveness of draining off the <br /> gas before the coal is mined. The drilling program for the first <br /> two gas wells is attached as Enclosure 3. These holes will have <br /> a production casing size of 9 5/8" and when hooked up to a surface <br /> suction pump should greatly improve the degassification of the <br /> underground mine workings. <br />
