in 1991, mining ceased at the last big mine in the region, sunnyside. subsequently, based on a permit issued by the state of colorado, sunnyside installed three bulk heads that drained its mine while trying to treat the waters draining into upper cement creek through a water treatment facility. after sunny side installed the bulk heads, water seeped into natural fractures that allowed it to flow into the gold king and red and bonita mines. initially these waters are run through a treatment system that sunnyside built but gold king mining company ultimately stopped operating the system. in 2008, they continued the efforts by a reclamation plan within gold king mine. based upon data from 2009 to 2014, flow data, the annual water discharge from gold king mine and three nearby mines reached approximately 300 -- at the request of local stakeholders, by 2014, epa joined the colorado division of reclamation mining and safety to address both the potential of water buildup and ongoing impacts caused by these large mine discharges into the upper animus watershed.

it was access to sunnyside mine, the largest mine in the silverton area. that the mining company stopped mining in 1991. and they were treating that 1600 gallons a minute and doing a good job of it up until this consent decree, they entered into a consent decree whereas they were allowed to put bulk heads into the american tunnel and then did a number of other mrojs throughout the animus basin to reduce metals to offset any seeps or springs that might pop out because of the bulkheading of the tunnel. back in 2002 they had fulfilled the agreements of the consent decree and the state signed off on it. after that, probably around 2003, 2004, we started seeing a lot more drainage coming out of some of these mines here in upper cement creek. the four main mines weave seen drainage increases -- well, we've always -- there's always some residual out of the american tunnel. and then there's also increased drainage coming out of the red and vanita, gold king number seven and the local mine. all together, the increase in drainage varies a little bit, the time of yea

three years later, 500 million gallons of water and sludge from the sunnyside mine turned the animas river black all the way to new mexico. last week, the mayor of durango, colorado, testified that the august 5th release of 3 million gallons was equivalent to roughly a week's worth of normal discharge from this mine. he said, this was a level of only 2% of the annual discharge from the mine. he testified, the heavy metal contamination that emanates from hundreds of separate mine sites in the mountains upstream of durango has been impacting our community since the late 19th century. it is a constant if often invisible threat to our community's public health and economic well-being and has resisted thoughtful and well intended efforts to mitigate this risk. in pennsylvania, my own district, faces this same threat of continual mine discharges. you know, we used to mine coal in northeastern pennsylvania, hard coal. in fact there are 575 abandoned mine lands in my district creating 382 miles of acid mine drainage affected streams. the fact is that mining companies have not been held respo
