Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illinois Land Report, Rice Lake Conservation Area, Vol. 2: Comments and Responses, Appendices, References; August 29, 1983 The Act also provides for ou-site inspection of disposal facilities, for water (surface and groundwater) control measures around processing waste banks, for construction requirements for waste banks, for time require ments for completion of covering of wastes, and for treatment of acid forming and toxic - forming waste materials. These requirements assure that the Department of Mines and Minerals will have sufficient information in its possession during the review of a surface mining permit application to judge the adequacy of the proposed approach. At that time, the Department can stipulate additional safe guards that must be implemented or can deny the application if the pro posed waste handling approach is not environmentally sound. Because the Act will require a future applicant to address this issue with site specific analytical data, the authors feel that the resolution of thequestions of the potential toxicity of processing waste at Rice Lake and the adequacy of the applicant's plans to dispose of the waste will be thoroughly addressed by the Department of Mines and Minerals when it reviews a permit application. The composition of the processing wastes generated by the Rice Lake mining operation will depend on the type of processing system used, the mining technique, and the composition of the materials mined. We have no ia formation that suggests that the processing wastes generated by the Rice Lake mining would be any more or less toxic than wastes produced at other mines in the region.
