Thursday, June 7, 2018 Professional Field Trips Professional Field Trip 1 - Remediation of Underground Mine Subsidence on Farmland in Illinois. This field trip will tour the surface areas over two longwall mines in Central Illinois. The first mine per- formed longwall operations in 17 panels from 1994 until 2007. Much of the area is flat prime farmland and experienced substantial drainage problems. The panel subsidence troughs are readily evident in many areas. Successful drainage restoration work through both surface waterways and subsurface drainage tile will be discussed and viewed. Lunch will be at a restaurant in Litchfield Illinois on Historic Route 66. The second mine was more recently initiated but has been idled due to underground issues. Three longwall panels were mined and subsided at this facility prior to the idling in 2015. Maximum subsidence experi- enced in the two longwall areas range from about 4.5 feet to 7 feet. For participants who have not had the opportunity to see subsidence from longwall mining, the tour will give an excellent perspective of the magnitude of longwall subsidence and a good overview of the practices necessary to restore subsided farmland. Meet in Lobby at 7:30 AM. Trip should last about 9 hours and return at 5PM. Professional Field Trip 2 - Prairie State Power Plant and Coal Mine – The Prairie State Energy Campus is setting a new standard for clean coal production. The state-of-the-art energy campus uses modern technology to produce cleaner, baseload electricity for their member communities. See website at: https://prairiestateenergycampus.com. Meet in Lobby at 8:30AM. Trip should last about 5 hours returning at 2 PM.
