Addition Repairs to #5 <br /> Mine Road <br /> Dear Mr. Crick: <br /> Mid-Continent Resources requests approval of Minor Revision #30 to <br /> Permit C-81-017 in order to carry out further repairs to the wash- <br /> out area on #5 mine road. <br /> The road was not kept open during last winter. The wash-out was <br /> discovered when the road was opened this spring, at a crossing of <br /> Coal Creek. Work was done to stabilize the outslope, including <br /> placement of steel bolts and fill material down the slope. Timbers <br /> and steel bolts were placed around the upper side of the road at <br /> the culvert. <br /> However, a large storm event on July 20 caused further damage. <br /> More extensive work will have to be done to the outslope, and <br /> around the culvert above the road. <br /> Mid-Continent will do the following, on approval: <br /> Cut the protruding culvert above the point where it is <br /> bent. Then anchor brattice cloth to the culvert, forming <br /> an apron below to prevent erosion of the channel under <br /> the culvert. <br /> Put river rock down the outslope and in the channel under <br /> the culvert. The rock will be transported and put over <br /> the bank with a front-end loader. If necessary, a drag- <br /> line will be brought in to place the rock. <br /> Fill material will be placed on the sloughed area immediately <br />
