The Hope Road West Project located directly west of the Lindentree Project across Hope Road. The project area consists of two large acid mine drainage water-filled impoundments (each approximately 500 linear feet long) separated by an earthen dam and a haul road. The northern pond is of good quality while the lower pond has a pH of 4.0 and iron measuring 5.5mg/L. The area also includes an acre of exposed toxic spoil to the south. This discharges and spoil contributes low pH, and high acidity and metals loadings directly downstream of the Lindentree project’s confluence with Huff Run.
