Wildfire hazard is variable because of the winter use of the <br />Central / Bench Zone by wintering cattle.The manure left <br />behind can combust, potentially resulting in an off -site wild- <br />fire. Other areas are generally barren of significant vegetation, <br />resulting is a reduced fire hazard. <br />Public health and safety hazard of the area is moderate to <br />high, due to the presence of elevated surface temperatures <br />at some of the venting fractures, the potential of large vents <br />opening, and due to apparently unstable ground at a portion <br />of the Central / Bench Zone. An existing barbed wire fence <br />constructed around the site ameliorates the hazard. <br />Wise Hill Coal (Silengo) Mine <br />Years <br />Operated <br />Formation/ Mined <br />Seams <br />Strike <br />Dip <br />Mining <br />Method <br />Total <br />Production <br />1940 -1970 <br />Williams Fork / * <br />N 30 E <br />8 <br />Drift <br />1,232,699 <br />* Not Reported <br />MOFFAT COUNTY <br />
