I don't <br />understand why you are monitoring coal seams when it is well know that coal occurs with iron, manganese, and <br />selenium. Mike states "since ground water in the coal seams is already known to be of degraded quality," <br />why is EFCI not required to test into ground water below the coal seams to see if it is leaching into water that <br />could be of beneficial use by the property owner? <br />would appreciate an explanation. <br />Also what was the final ruling on TR 39? Janet recommended the new reference area. Is that the discussion for <br />the Board meeting. I need clarification please. <br />Linda Saunders <br />https: / /mail.g oog le.conVmai I / ?ui =2 &i Ir454642l a5a &�A ew-- pt &search =i nbox&th= 1416Obcbdef5f591 1 /1 <br />
