South Wales Land Reclamation Scheme Employs MCerts Approved Monitors for Suspended Solids
On the hills above Merthyr Tydfil, Miller
Argent is undertaking a highly ambitious
land reclamation scheme that is also
involving the extraction of coal by surface
mining methods. Known as the \'Ffos-y-fran
Land Reclamation Scheme\', this is the third
and final phase of the East Merthyr
Reclamation Scheme which is expected to
run for approximately 17 years.
The reclamation works will include the
removal of known shafts and adits all
previously associated with the historic iron
ore and coal workings that present a danger
to humans, livestock and wild animals.
