That looks like fairly unstable ground. They might have also been trying to plant some sort of seed in the ground. I'd like to see if they did this for some reason like erosion control.

This bedding helps provide the grass seed with enough nutrition to grow and keeps the seed from blowing away. It's green because of the ingredients in the bedding. Other areas use straw as bedding. We do lop the top off mountains for coal, but I've never seen it painted. The green "paint" along the sides of highways is actually grass seed embedded sometimes in algae and other nutrients.

It was supposed to be Base beautification. All the other grass would be brown and dead looking.
