The Bureau of Mines initiated a mine site specific design of a system of underground disposal of coal wastes. One of the two contracts to prepare this design was awarded to Foster Miller Associates, Inc. (FMA)/Western Slope Carbon, Inc. (WCS). This paper describes the mine refuse, waste disposal system and equipment selection, influence of the disposal system on mine productivity, miner health and safety, and the phase II program for system installation and evaluation. 3 refs.
