The AML Geotechnical Services section provides drilling and geotechnical investigations for the abandoned mine lands (AML) program.
The section is responsible for investigating complaints from residents or local government officials concerned about AML issues. The AML geologists and engineers utilize the division’s drill rigs to conduct complaint investigations and obtain subsurface information for project designs.
Project design investigations include concentrated subsurface drilling within an AML area that has been selected by the division for restoration funding or study projects in conjunction with outside state and federal agencies.
