No certification is necessary at this time. <br />Coal mine waste - In the past, coal mine waste was being <br />deposited in a "temporary" location in the south-east portion <br />of. the permit. Because disposal was approved as being <br />temporary no certifications were required. Recently, the <br />disposal of coal mine lJdSte on this permit has been approved <br />as permanent storage.
