SANTIAGO, Chile Chile says seismic activity is dropping at a volcano on the border with Argentina but officials are maintaining a red alert as a precaution. Chile's emergency office ONEMI issued the highest alert Sunday in the Biobio region after it registered high seismic activity Saturday night at the Copahue volcano and an ash cloud billowing almost a mile high. The volcano began spewing ash and gas Saturday. Mining Minister Hernan de Solminihac says activity at the volcano dropped to normal to low early Monday and the ash plume has descended to about 660 feet. That's a sign internal pressure has decreased inside the volcano. The Copahue volcano, which sits in the Andes cordillera, straddling the border with Argentina's Neuquen province, started spewing ash and gas on Saturday.
