New 2023 Reuse of Solid Mining Waste Team

ITRC Seeking State Leadership and Membership Interest for a New 2023 Team!

ITRC's exciting new 2023 team, Reuse of Solid Mining Waste, needs state leadership before it can start in January of 2023! If you are interested in becoming a State Team Leader, please contact Patty Reyes at preyes@ecos.org.

The team will focus on exploring and determining best management practices for:

Reprocessing and reusing solid mining materials
Potential technical and regulatory issues with reusing materials
Cleanup of abandoned mine sites

ITRC is also seeking to garner subject matter experts on different areas of mining (hard rock, coal, lead, etc.), active and abandoned mining, and land reclamation. Stay tuned for registration details later this year!

We recognize the importance of this topic and are excited to tackle this nationwide legacy issue!

ITRC is a program of the Environmental Research Institute of the States (ERIS). ERIS is a 501(c)(3) organization incorporated in the District of Columbia and managed by the Environmental Council of the States (ECOS).
