"CRTU members Ron Snyder (left) and Pete Martin shovel #3 stone into deteriorated "wet spots" on CRTU's access road to its main-stem Glade Run acid-mine-drainage treatment site. The road enables tri-axle trucks to deliver and place 23-ton loads of high-calcium limestone sand at the site.

Mike Bartock of Bartock Hauling and Excavating delivered the material and looks on in rearview mirror."
