The circumstances surrounding the original approval of the current refuse <br />disposal area are not clear. The initial approval apparently stated that <br />coal waste would be placed below the elevation of the highwall and in <br />such a manner as to not be mixed with any ground water. The waste has, <br />until recently, been disposed of below the highwall level but is now <br />being placed directly in standing water of which the origin is not <br />clear. Please provide documentation clearly showing that the approval <br />was granted to place the waste into water. Also, provide or reference <br />any supporting documentation showing where the water originates from and <br />the potential impact of mixing the waste with this water. <br />_iq_ <br />
