“We’re on a deadline,” Cartwright, D-8, Moosic, said Wednesday of the Abandoned Mine Land Trust Fund, which expires in September.
The trust fund, established in 1977, is financed by a tax on each ton of coal mined. Cartwright said the fund paid to restore thousands of open mine portals, 1,000 miles of dangerous highwalls and restored water polluted by mine drainage.

Many organizations each year do projects to ensure wild trout are in abundance in streams, lakes and rivers.

Reducing acid mind drainage by removing two old coal refuse culm piles that were causing water impairment near Mildred and Loyalsock Creek was a project discussed.
Acid mine drainage destroys the aquatic life, turning streams orange with toxic chemicals from mining, said Marc Lewis, spokesman for the Loyalsock Creek Watershed Association.
The Eastern Pennsylvania Coalition for Abandoned Mine Reclamation is helping to monitor the upper reaches of the creek. Water quality and the effluent from two abandoned mine discharge treatment systems are being looked at as is gas withdraw impacts, Lewis said. ....

Mine-scarred land could serve as sites for solar energy projects


Abandoned mine lands in Northeast Pennsylvania are being surveyed as potential sites for solar energy projects.

“We have to look at slopes. The land cannot be too steep. Another factor is the proximity to electrical power transmission substations,’’ said Bobby Hughes, executive director of EPCAMR.
No sites have been selected yet, Hughes said, but EPCAMR hopes to identify acreage “very soon.’’
Northeast Pennsylvania remains dotted with mining-related land sites, most often scarred by more than one century of anthracite mining and production. Thousands of acres have been reclaimed, but culm banks and sloping acreage remain. ....
