Wandered by the OrbView-2 control room at lunch time today.
There were five (5) more burns since 8/29, ranging the mean orbit to
689 x 691 km based on GPS Orbit Determination Data:
Burn #26 30-August 7:25 UTC
#27 30-August 9:39
#28 30-August 18:48
#29 30-August 22:48
#30 31-August 2:55
Target is 705 km
More as I dig it out...

SeaStar made two or more maneuvres, probably on the afternoon of Aug.30
to reach this orbit:
SeaStar / OrbView-2 701 x 685
1 24883U 97037A 97243.80549276 .00000915 00000-0 20000-3 0 572
2 24883 98.2123 341.3199 0011009 264.1817 46.5618 14.60077037 4629
This was OIG's latest elset on Sep.1 at 14:30 UT
Is this the operational orbit ?
