6-26-99 Utah Department of Natural Resources is starting a mine reclaimation project

The Utah Department of Natural Resources is starting a mine reclaimation project. I talked to one of the men heading the project. He said that many of the old mining sights are going to be completely removed. Currently, they are working on the mines in the area of Mercur, Manning, West Dip, Topliff, Scranton, etc... Jacob City will remain untouched as it is on private property, and Ophir will remain as well.
