Fletcher, Terry A 5:20 PM (6 hours ago) fr A, to me 7 Benny, Regarding your inquiry, the Easterling?s well was investigated by the WVDEP in 2018 and there was no indication that the well was impacted by either pre-law or post SMCRA mining activity. A copy of the inspection report is attached, along with topographical maps of the two coal seams it references. The WVDEP investigates all complaints received regarding water contamination and responds accordingly, but has no record of any slurry injection that would affect the Easterling?s well, nor have we received any other well complaints in this area. When extraction activities are complete, all sites under the jurisdiction of the WVDEP must be reclaimed in accordance with the approved reclamation plan contained in the permit. This includes the remediation of any unanticipated adverse impacts to water supply systems which have been identified. Thank you, Terry Fletcher Acting Communications Director
