r <br /> COAL INSPECTION REPORT <br /> Operation: Coal Basin Mines <br /> File No. : C-017-81 <br /> Operator Name: Mid-Continent Resources, Inc. <br /> Permittee Name: Same <br /> Address: P.O. Box 158 <br /> Carbondale, CO 81623 <br /> County: Pitkin <br /> Inspection Date: October 25, 1984 <br /> Type of Operation: Underground, coal <br /> Inspector: James A. Pendleton <br /> Weather: Clear and cool (450 F) <br /> Time: 2:00 p.m. <br /> Type of Inspection: Geotechnical , partial <br /> Operator Contact: Tom Johansen and Wesley Huff <br /> I. General Comments <br /> I examined the Sutey Parcel Coal Processing Waste Pile Site, which is in the <br /> process of preparation to receive coal processing waste. Sediment ponds were <br /> being completed. Culverted access road creek crossing and conveyor <br /> foundations were being completed. Preparation of the site should be complete <br /> within two to three weeks, if good weather continues. <br /> I visited the rock tunnel coal processing waste pile and viewed the old, no <br /> longer used, waste pile, both of which are operating in compliance with the <br /> approved permit. As usual , surface moisture made working on both of these <br /> piles extremely difficult, for which reason the operator is avidly pursuing <br /> completion of the Sutey site. At the Sutey pile, an enlarged working surface <br /> will allow better management of surface moisture problems during the placement <br /> and compaction of coal processing waste. <br />
