Task 6 has been part of the continuing effort by Harris and Associates, Engineers, Inc. to monitor and evaluate contract research for the DOE/METC ''Methane Recovery from Coalbeds Project''. The purpose of Task 6 was to provide field site monitoring and evaluation of five coalbed methane resource utilization projects granted under the Department of Energy-Resource Application (RA) program and to provide monitoring and evaluation of two resource delineation projects granted under the Department of Energy Methane Recovery from Coalbeds Project (Unconventional Gas Recovery Program). Performance of Task 6 was contracted to include eight brief site monitoring trips to project field sites, written reports of trip findings, trip planning and coordination, and attendance at the 1982 DOE/SPE Symposium. Task activities were divided among four subtasks, which are used as headings to report Harris and Associates activities. There were minor modifications made in the terms and assignments of Task 6; these are discussed in the subtask sections. For Task 6 Harris and Associates monitored the activities of eight projects through various phases of their development. These projects were RA program projects with the Jicarilla Apache, Southern Ute, Choctaw, Crow and Muckleshoot Indian Tribes, administered by DOE/Region VIII in Denver, an RA program project with the Ute Indian Tribe, administered by DOE/Region IV in Atlanta, a technology assessment project with Dames and Moore administered by DOE/METC and a UGR program project with the Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey administered by DOE/METC. This report summarizes the monitoring and evaluation efforts.
