Appalachian Clean Streams Initiative
The Appalachian Clean Streams Initiative (ACSI) was developed in August 1994 as a “non-regulatory effort aimed at remediation of existing sources of Acid Mine Drainage often found at abandoned and bond-forfeited sites. This is an on-going effort to develop State, local and Federal partnerships to clean up polluted streams using watershed-based planning efforts, and focusing the energies and resources of citizens, communities, and corporations. A major goal of the clean-up plan is to increase information exchanges and to eliminate [duplicate] efforts among State, local and Federal government agencies that are working in this arena.” ACSI is supported by the Title IV Abandoned Mines-Office of Surface Mining, Environmental Protection Agency. This Initiative includes projects in 11 Appalachian States.
