Decision triggers environmental scrutiny of 79 mining permits
The Environmental Protection Agency has taken another positive step towards reining in the destructive practice of mountaintop removal mining.
Today, the EPA declared that all of the 79 permits it was reviewing would violate the Clean Water Act and must undergo more in-depth environmental assessment by both the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers. This is a welcome action that Earthjustice called for two weeks ago.
Now, the two agencies have 60 days to review each permit. We can't imagine that they can reach any other conclusion than that these mines will cause irreparable harm to the waterways, land and communities of Appalachia. The permits must be denied, and beyond that, the Obama administration should follow up by reinstating and enforcing clean water rules gutted by the Bush administration.

I am wondering what everything can be possibly involved to north face outlet release all permits that allow mining companies to do all this. Are there no restrictions? EPA should prepare strict rules that the north face outlet avoid any harm to the landscape and surrounded nature. I hope that it will be stopped soon…
