The new CLU-IN Focus Area on Characterization, Cleanup, and Revitalization of Abandoned Mining Sites launched by the Technology Innovation and Field Services Division (TIFSD) provides site managers, regulatory agencies, consultants, and the general public with information on technologies and resources related to the assessment, characterization, cleanup, and revitalization of abandoned mine lands. The website discusses the most common types of abandoned mining sites, presents a range of traditional and innovative technologies that may be appropriate for cleanup of mining sites, provides resources that can assist in mining waste characterization, revitalization, and reuse, and maintains a current list of Internet seminars and upcoming meetings related to the characterization, cleanup and revitalization of abandoned mining sites
