Most likely to disguise it as a coal mining operation, aswell as to make a small amount of profit on the side by selling coal, ect. Who knows, maybe
it is a coal mining operation. Perhaps the coal miners aren't aware of anything else?
Look. To be 100% honest, I do believe the base exists, but this isn't it. If it is as big as the wikipedia article says it is, you would need
a
lot more than 90 fans for ventilation.
As for it's power source, I read it operates from the Navajo River. The same article stated it's waste is also dumped into the same river. I tried
to look if there was a maintenance booth, something along the river, but came up with no results. The only thing I came up with was the fact that the
water did look a bit brown from the images. Then again, it
is google earth. Not very dependable. The only way to prove or disprove this would
be to take a water sample from the river and even that might not be enough to prove anything.
Short of going to the base, there is nothing that proves or disproves this bases existance. Not trying to be a downer here, but lets face the facts.
The photos provided could be anything.
