The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) said about US$25 million of the bankruptcy settlement would be put into a trust fund.

“The funds will be used to treat polluted mine drainage, reclaim mine lands and perform other environmental cleanup activities at LTV’s five coal mining facilities and three steel manufacturing facilities in southwestern Pennsylvania,” said DEP.

The long-shut mines and coal refuse piles include Banning; the Clyde mine in Washington County; the Russellton mine and a coal refuse pile in Allegheny County; and the Nemacolin coal refuse pile in Greene County.
