To me this validates Mike Joseph's newspaper artical in the CentraDaily.

PennDOT has submitted a proposal to DEP to treat the Buttress/Bifurcation
area with Bauxsol. The proposal includes injecting the Bauxsol and covering
with a Bauxsol slurry. A field meeting was held April 12th to discuss the
drilling, injection layout and process of the Bauxsol.
. PennDOT is considering a plan for the Cut Faces. The cut faces could be
covered with impervious material in order to protect them from
precipitation. Acid generation appears to be created on these areas by
precipitation. It may be possible to cover the cut face slopes with Bauxol
to neutralize the ARD runoff and also work as a ground cover for vegetation.
The contractor has been directed to hold any additional work in order to
complete the PVC liner on the cut slope. The Department has now submitted a
proposal to the DEP outlining plans to inject and treat this area with a
Bauxsol slurry.
