Description
This community support ? and a lot of work by AMD&ART AmeriCorps and VISTAs ? is what made the AMD&ART Park a reality. Using an interdisciplinary team with me literally choreographing the entire process to assure that we incorporated ideas and suggestions from the community and many other sources, this immense swath of desolate land has become a place for recreation, historical reflection, and AMD remediation. At the eastern end of the park, a sequence of large pools shaped to fit the topography and reduce excavation costs mark the beginning of the treatment system.
And it is working. Today, AMD&ART is a nationally recognized model for reclamation, working with many partners to effectively and sustainably treat AMD and coal communities. We challenge the belief that treatment systems should be hidden away, just because we as a society are ashamed of the mess we have created.
