| Description | Holden Mine on Railroad Creek in the Washington Cascades shut down in 1957. As part of Holden Mine's legacy to the area, several tailing piles were left on the surrounding landscape. The associated environmental impact on Railroad Creek from the acid mine drainage and seepage from the tailing piles can be visually observed in the creek bed. Mine drainage and seeps from the tailing piles are known inputs to the creek of acid wastes and metals. The impact of the tailing pile material on the creek is not as well known. | ||||
