; ;
Experiments have been conducted whereby reconstructed profiles consisting of spoil and soil material from a surface mine location in Western Kentucky were subjected to simulated rainfall. Profiles were prepared in large laboratory bins consisting of spoil material alone and topsoil over spoil material. Infiltration was measured under a variety of conditions as well as relevant soil or spoil parameters. 23 refs.
