Thorneloe, S. Presentation to Office of Surface Mines about use of LEAF in evaluating use of CCRs in mine reclamation. No formal name, NA, May 13, 2014.
Impact/Purpose:
We are using existing presentation to brief Office of Surface Mine on the use of LEAF in supporting them in ongoing rulemaking about use of coal ash in mine reclamation. This meeting was arranged by OSWER. We will tailor the presentation based on their needs and interest which we will not know until Tuesday (5/13)or the day of the mtg. So I have included more material than what we may need. We did not know when the mtg was to be scheduled until yesterday.
Description:
Providing information on new EPA methods that predict environmental release based on changing environmental conditions. The purpose is to determine if OSM needs support on their ongoing rulemaking. According to OSWER, there is a need and OSM is anxious to meet with us particularly on the geochecmical speciation modeling that we can do that would be specific to conditions associated with coal mines.
