Because the second half of <br />each month is devoted primarily to the hydrologic monitoring <br />of five of the six permitted Kaiser properties, it was decided <br />by Kaiser personnel to complete the hydrology on time and ask <br />for an extension of the abatement (hydrology for CCMC No. 1 <br />was concluded on April 28th and for Chimney Rock Coal on April <br />30th) . <br />At the urgency of Tom Schreiner of <br />to make a complete inspection of t <br />control structures of the Somerset <br />done in the fourth week of April. <br />Kaiser personnel that ensuring the <br />Somerset was mandatory. <br />the MLRD, it was necessary <br />~e drainage and sediment <br />Mine.
