The maximum <br /> charge weight was in excess of 275 pounds per delay. This shot was <br /> to an open face. <br /> Shot 2 -April 19, 1989 - This shot consisted of 11 ,500 pounds of <br /> explosives loaded into 100, 3 inch diameter, 26 foot deep holes, <br /> drilled on an 8 foot by 8 foot pattern. The maximum charge weight <br /> - appears to be approximately 116 pounds per delay. This appears to <br /> • have been 'a lift shot in the pit floor. <br /> Shot 3 - April 21 , 1989 - This shot consisted of approximately 8,40C <br /> pounds of explosives loaded into 77, 3 inch diameter, 26 foot deep <br /> holes, drilled on an 8 foot by 8 foot pattern. The maximum charge <br /> weight appears to be approximately 116 pounds per delay. This <br /> appears to have been a lift shot in the pit floor. <br /> Given the maximum charge weights shown for the three shots listed, <br /> and the distance from the Spitz residence to the blasting area, <br /> approximately 2,500 feet, it is unlikely that peak particle <br /> velocities greater than 0.15 IPS would have been observed. In <br /> addition to being well within the limits set forth in ILHR <br /> Chapter 7, as can be seen by the plot on figure 7.64, these levels, <br /> in a normal house, would not be capable of causing movements of the <br /> magnitude described in the complaint. <br /> IMPORTANT <br /> • Please report when hazards are eliminated. <br /> • Avoid delay. <br /> • Keep us informed. <br /> HAZARD ELIMINATION DATE l SAFETY HAZARDS EXPLAINED TO: TITLE <br /> Rich Bingham Blaster <br /> BY �� � � MINE SAFETY SPECIALIST SAFETY& BUILDINGS DIVISION <br /> Address all Correspondence Safety and Buildings Division,Mine Safety Section, Department of Industry, Labor <br /> and Human Relations,P.O.
