Perth Observer just posted this video on the Oroville dam -

Has about astrophysics experiments done from an old mine in Oroville. But the science paper is pay-to-read ... (a HUNDRED BUCKS!) https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-94-009-0541-2_13 Reply

short free summary -

Solar Cosmions

David N. Spergel

"Several laboratories have begun an active experimental search for the solar cosmion. The UCSB-UCB-Saclay silicon **experiment in the Oroville mine **has already placed stringent limits on solar cosmions that couple to matter through spin-independent interactions..."

So we are looking around.

Some key words -

"UCSB-UCB-Saclay silicon experiment in the Oroville mine"

and

"Saclay experiment"

Here is a gizmo placed in the Oroville location -

and we found this gem - says there's experiments from the underground power plant...

LOCATION

But that's not a "deep mine"... and there's lots of mines in Butte county where the dam is.

You can zoom in on this map - but the mines near the spillway have no ID names ... maybe when they are no longer active they lose the name (?) ....

ugh! the dam is in Butte County - look at all these mines -

Page 4-5 of this Rand doc. describes the Oroville dam laboratory

http://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/monograph_reports/MR1194/MR1194.chap5.pdf

The lab gets 266 million dollars A YEAR(!) to operate. Has 3,800 emplyees(!). Just due to parking etc. it is likely these people mostly work at the Berkely campus and not around Oroville. People would notice that many people driving to work.
