Drainage from thousands of abandoned coal mines has contaminated more than 3,000 miles of streams and associated ground waters in Pennsylvania and is the most extensive water-pollution problem affecting the four major river basins in Pennsylvania. Because coal-mine drainage can contain toxic concentrations of acidity, metals, and sediment, many of the mining impacted streams contain "no fish" (figure 2). Consequently, Pennsylvania loses approximately $67 million annually that could be generated if sport fishing were restored in the affected streams. The estimated cost for restoring the damaged watersheds is $5 billion to $15 billion.

above could take 123456789 to the power of gerbil tonnes of Bauxsol

my gerbil's grandpa estimations are http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/hazwaste/ldr/mine/costs.pdf

Very interesting read bros1. A huge variation in the clean -up cost depending on the scale and circumstances. Most seem to suited to Bauxsol use and available numbers suggest Bauxsol much cheaper. If VTI can win the I-99 contract, that togther with the EPA Gilt Edge test data should give it the credibility needed. Do the BB posters think VTI will run these itself or appoint a licencee? Evidence to date appears to favour the latter - should be no shortage of interest.
