This 2000 handbook has been developed as a resource for project managers working on addressing the environmental concerns posed by inactive mines and mineral processing sites. The information contained is not policy or guidance, but rather a compendium of information gained during many years of experience on mine site cleanup projects. This information was developed primarily for EPA staff, but may also prove useful to others working on mine site characterization and cleanup projects, including states, other federal agencies, tribes, local government, public interest groups, and private industry.
