EPA investigating Bee Tree

The Associated Press

CHARLESTON The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency are investigating Massey Energy’s mountaintop removal operation at its Bee Tree Mine.

The agency sent Massey’s Marfork Coal Co. subsidiary a letter this week seeking a long list of information about the operation. EPA inspectors visited the site earlier this month.

In the letter, the agency said it is concerned about the operation’s lack of a “dredge-and-fill” permit as part of the federal Clean Water Act.

Richmond, Va.-based Massey has 30 days to respond to the letter and provide the information EPA requested.

Company officials say Massey has received the letter and is reviewing it.
