Behind the scenes
Federal mine regulators have a field day cracking down on Dakota Fred and Parker Schnabel!
http://www.chilkatvalleynews.com/story.asp?Story=1592&Inspections-halt-Schnabel,-TV-mines
Parker Schnabel said he doesn’t doubt that last winter’s TV exposure drew the attention of regulators. According to the Alaska Miners’ Association, there are about 200 small, seasonal placer mines in the state, which federal inspectors are required to inspect once a year. "We’ve been operating 25 years and never had a (federal) inspection," Schnabel said.
Was thinking the same thing as I was reading the Story.
Although the cameras don't catch alot, I wonder if the Inspectors
are Given Directions (Homework) watch the show
& watch closely for Money making oppertunities,
By finding things to Fine them for.
I Am glad Fred got fined though
I just hope Discovery dosn't pay the fines for him.

Add me to the list of those who Cringe when
old man Hoffman talks.
As for as them Complaining about going broke.
My guess they are Multi Millionaires.
Most wealthy people are the first ones to cry poverty
over every cent they spend.
I also doubt any of them were ever in danger of loosing their
homes, Unless they put their wives in charge of paying Bills,
but they are too busy attending Parties showing off
the dogs they carry around Like babies.
unless I Misread, I think
The comment for tonight said Something about a Girlfriend
complicating things ?
I Hope they are not planning on turning it into
a soap Opera. I Look forward to the show.
fred spends 80k on equipment and a producing mine.
