Contained within the directory are contacts with access to information on metal mine waste characterization, metal mine drainage quality, and drainage quality prediction for each of the twenty-one Western Governors' Association (WGA) member states. Each state was contacted and asked to provide names, addresses, phone numbers of people with access to information on ten topics relevant to mine waste characterization and drainage quality. The request, in the form of a questionnaire, was sent to WGA contacts as well as other people in associated departments and the information received was compiled. Ten questions listed for each state are followed by the contacts used to get the information requested. When necessary, an explanatory paragraph precedes the contact list. In some cases, supplemental information such as a mine or reference list is placed in appendices.
