EPA questions W.Va mountaintop removal mine plan
Federal regulators object to Consol Energy proposed Buffalo Mountain Surface Mine in Mingo County West Virginia. The EPA says the 2 300 acre site would create 13 valley fills burying nearly 10 miles of streams and lacks adequate pollution monitoring or discharge limits. Officials review the agency letter amid highway linkage and the plan to mine 16 million tons over 14 years.
