Description | Washington has a legacy of mining activity, and that history has led to thousands of inactive and abandoned mines across the state. Many of these inactive and abandoned mines are ongoing sources of contamination that include high concentrations of metals in soil. This draft guidance provides property owners simple sampling and cleanup instructions for mine waste piles. | ||||||
