Black Warrior Riverkeeper opposes
Mulberry Fork mining permit renewal
Until February 25, 2019, the
Alabama Surface Mining
Commission (ASMC) will
accept public comments con-
cerning the renewal of a coal
mining permit for the No. 5
Mine. This proposed 506 acre
surtarx: coal mine would dis»
charge wastewater out of 23
points into the Mulberry Fork of
the Black Wanior River,
upstream of a drinking water
intake for 200,000 people.
Submit written comments to

Director, Alabama Surface

upstream of one of greater
Birmingham’s major drinking

The Birmingham Water Works
Board (BWWB) is actively
opposing the mines pennit as
written, which authorizes a sur-
face coal mine at a former
industrial site with contaminat-
ed groundwater. Drinking water
customers and all concerned,
for a limited time, have the
opportunity to comment on this
coal mine permit. We urge you
to do so.
Black Warrior Riverkeeper
opposes the No.5 Mine for the
following reasons:
1. No. 5 Mine will discharge
polluted water into the
Mulberry Fork and its tributar-
ies only 55 miles upstream of a
primary drinking water intake
for the BWWB, the Mulberry
Intake, which serves 200,000
greater Birminglnrm area cus-
tomers daily.

Supply,” and therefore should
not be subjected to 23 polluted
water discharge points. ‘
3. The Birmingham Water
Works Board’s 2013' Source
Water Assessment identifies a
“Source Water Protection Area”
along the Mulberry Fork and its
tributaries fifteen miles
upstream and a quarter mile
downstream of the Mulberry
Intake. This area includes a 500
foot buffer along the river and
its main tributaries. The pro-
posed mine significantly
encnoaches within the SWPA.
4. As a result of litigation by
the BWWB, the ASMC and
No. 5 Mine were ordered by a
court to demonstrate how
ing could safely occur on the
industrial portion of the proper-
ty; their first attempt was
deemed inadequate and the
court ordered them to try again
or they could not mine that por-
tion of the site.
