[Saving Grace]

The news is the new smoke stack tower was erected for the burn off of contaminated soil from the past mining operations which was fuel related. The soil contamination was removed and incinerated on site rather than hauling it off off site for the removal.

The crews finished the revitalization over a month ago then removed the newly built tower all together once the project was complete. There must have been a stipulation with the bonding issue before the transfer of the restoration or reclamation bond could be transferred to new ownership.

The site has now been restored contaminant free.

It appeared that new overburden was also removed to the south of the existing project and ready for mining.
