Loucks, R A

Work at the D.A. Shale site during this quarter involved mainly the completion of Retort 5 processing, and the mining, drilling, and engineering activities required in the preparation of Retort 6. At the C-b tract, work was begun on the clearance and the surface preparation of the shaft area and the mine support area. Also, site offices were established for the site clearance contractor, the surveying contractor, and the managing contractor. During the previous two months, bids for the sinking of four shafts on the tract were reviewed, and a contract was awarded in January. The collaring of the first shaft will commence on about February 15.
