Abstract:
Ultimate
goal of successful revegetation efforts is establishment of a
permanent,
self-sustaining plant community that supports postmining land use.
This,
in turn, is dependent on establishment of efficient nutrient cycles within
the
mine soil-plant system. Major goal of
this research effort over the next
several
years will be careful documentation of the N, P and K cycles in these
systems. This information, integrated with our
findings regarding effects of
rock
type and surface treatments on mine soil genesis and plant growth, will be
an
invaluable tool for the improvement of reclamation success in Southern
Appalachia.

Abstract
Vol. II
presents an analysis of each alternative considered in assessing
economic
impact of compliance costs. Vol. I
presents an overall methodology and
discusses
the development of representative mines.
Each alternative was
analyzed
in detail for the requirements which would be imposed on each model
mine
and would have to adjust its operations in some form to comply with the
alternatives.

Abstract:
Vol. II
presents an analysis of each alternative considered in assessing the
economic
impact of compliance costs. Vol. I:
Methodology and general
approach
and development of model mines and economic analysis techniques.
Descriptions
of model underground mines in Vol. I are repeated in Chapter 2.0.
Analysis
of each policy is given in Chapter 3.0.
For completeness, all issues
are
discussed in Chapter 3.0 even though these are not considered in detail.
Where
issues apply to surface mines, it is noted with reference to Vol. II where
detailed
analyses of surface mining are discussed.
