The EPA mess your talking about was a accident waiting to happen from 1 of 1000 of abandoned mines that nobody wanted to take responsible for their actions.

The accident was caused by a private firm contracted by EPA and yes probably supervised by the EPA.

EPA and others wanted to spend more money and asked for it initially for cleaning it up.But

local officials and the tourist industry wanted to keep in low budget and low profile so tourists would not notice they had a problem at that site and many others across the state. It backfired on the them not admitting they have a problem.
