ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Oct. 04, 2016 -- Westmoreland Coal Company (NYSE:WLB), and Westmoreland Resource Partners (NYSE:WMLP), announced today that their Daron-Consol Mine received the Active Mine Reclamation Award Appalachian Region from the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement for the most exemplary mining operations and reclamation accomplishments.
This is the company’s third Excellence in Coal Mine Reclamation Award in five years. The Daron Mine was recognized for mining and reclaiming nearly 40,000 feet of abandoned high-wall, which was previously mined in the 1960’s and early 1970’s. Westmoreland’s efforts have created 16,900 feet of continuous stream channel; filled dozens of slurry impoundments; and turned some of the reclaimed areas into 23 acres of wetlands, and grazing lands.
“Our Ohio operations exemplify the reclamation standards of the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, as well as Westmoreland’s core value of Environmental Stewardship. With great vision, a comprehensive plan, and a strong dedication to doing right, all the credit goes to our coal miners who take great pride in reclaiming mined lands to a condition equal to or better than pre-mining,” said Joseph Micheletti, Executive Vice President, Operations of Westmoreland Coal Company.
