The pace is picking up at the Bair-Collins Mine Reclamation Project in Roundup. Material is being hauled from the former mine site south of the City to the sediment storage area located east of the City. The excavations at the site are recovering more than sediment. Detroit riprap and debris from the site reveal the industrial nature of the site. Metal and concrete recovered at the site is being hauled to Billings for recycling and reuse. Work will continue through October 2020. This project is funded through multiple sources including the DNRC Reclamation and Development Grants Program. Check out some great videos of the project work on the Musselshell Watershed Coalition website: https://musselshellwc.wixsite.com/musselshellwc/bair-collins.
