“…the US Clean Water Act of 1972), investiga tors, practitioners and regulators began to show much more interest in the off-site environmental impacts of runoff and erosion from mined lands and to place more emphasis on long-term stability. Unstable landforms prevent the develop ment of soils and vegetation communities, and erosion control is difficult and uneconomical (Riley, 1995;Toy and Black, 2000;Kapolka and Dollhopf, 2001); by contrast, geomorphic based sustainable landscapes are expected to generate effi cient engineering solutions that generally decrease ecological impacts (Bender et al, 2000). Compatibility between environ mental protection and mine profitability can be achieved through integrated minewater management (Sawatsky et al, 1998).…”

“…The properties of soilsinfiltration and composition and thus their response to the environmental forces -may change with time (Ghose, 2001) and this needs to be factored into the design. On unstable landforms the development of new soils and the establishment of vegetation is difficult and expensive wherever there is an inability to control erosion (Riley, 1995, Toy and Black, 2000, Kapolka and Dollhopf, 2001). In such cases where vegetation itself cannot be used as an erosion control measure, mechanical controls such as contour wattles (Haigh and GentchevaKostadinova, 2007), back-sloping terraces and micro-surface modifications (Sharma et al, 2001) have been used to successfully reduce the rapid erosion of materials and improve hydrological conditions.…”
