CONTINENT RESOURCESINC. <br /> PRODUCERS OF THE FAMOUS COAL BASIN COKING COAL <br /> 1068 COUNTY ROAD 100• BOX 500 <br /> CARBONDALE,COLORADO 81623 <br /> TLX <br /> MAIN OFFICE (303)963-2581 45-0724 <br /> DISTRICT OFFICE (303)963-0555 FAX <br /> WAREHOUSE (303)963-3223 (303)963-2816 <br /> Notice of Violation C-89-013 Beltline <br /> Activity in response to the Notice of violation: <br /> 1. On June 1st and 2nd I had one man monitor the <br /> beltline to determine the cause of spillage. He found the <br /> cause to be the build-up of water on the belts from <br /> underground pumping of water onto the belt. This caused <br /> ponding on the belt. When the coal hit this ponding it <br /> would slurry, then spill over the--edge. When the pumping of <br /> water onto the belt from inside the mine stopped, the <br /> spillage along the beltline ceased. <br /> 2. To clean under the beltline it was necessary to <br /> lease a track loader. We have no equipment on the property <br /> that would fit under the beltline. The track loader was <br /> used for approximately forty (40) hours the week of June <br /> 12th thru the 16th. <br /> 3 . Four men were enlisted for one work week, eight <br /> hours per day, to shovel, rake, and sweep the coal that was <br /> to be loaded and hauled away. Mid-Continent's loader then <br /> filled a truck and the coal was hauled to and dumped at the <br /> Rock Tunnel refuse pile. <br /> 4. The approximate cost of just this operation was <br /> $5,784 .00, itemized as follows: 40 hrs. track loader @ <br /> $35.00/hr. for $1400.00; four men, five days, eight hours <br /> per day @ $11.00/hr--160 hrs. @ $11.00/hr. = $1,760.00. <br /> Total dollar amount also includes the observer's wages, 16 <br /> hrs. @ $11.00/hr. = $176 .00 . The cost of Mid-Continent's <br /> loader for 24 hours was $840.00; the cost of the truck was <br /> $1,080 .00 and total operator cost for the truck and loader <br /> was $528.00. <br /> Lew Thompson <br /> June 19 , 1989 <br />
