	Erosion Control \| Miners Ridge Road-to-Trail Restoration Project at Prairie Creek State Park
		A trail reroute was constructed in late 1998 to circumvent the old mine road and the corduroy-road segment.
		Road prism measurements were taken at obvious changes in the road profile and used to estimate perched volume per linear foot (see Figure 1).
		The road bench at wet areas and seeps was excavated similarly to a stream crossing by creating a gentle swale, and fill was moved down the road to a dry, more stable storage location.

	The Mamakating Mine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The Jersey mines, in the neighborhood of Franklin, were in fact, a major enterprise of the early 17th Century which continued into the second half of the 20th -- more than 300 years of virtually continuous operation.
		However, in an extensive investigation of the Shawangunk(Wurtsboro) mine, by the Bureau of Mines done in the spring of 1948, rich deposits of zinc and lead were found along with amounts of copper, pyrite, silver in a minor amount, and gold in a minute amount.
		Although the search for mines lead to the discovery of much fertile land in the wilderness, and its occupation by whites at an early day, it did not lead to the settlement of the banks of the Delaware by the Swedes, or any other Europeans, as far up as Minisink, until several years had elapsed.

		This was the old mine or Esopus road made by the Hollanders previously mentioned, and is the same now travelled upon through the Hollow.
		While old Minisink, perhaps in a historical point of view, is as much entitled to the honor of it as ancient Deerpark; we still are inclined from our knowledge of the matter to divide the honor about equally between them.

	August 2003 Focus - Foamed Asphalt a Success on Federal Lands Highway
		The road had not been repaved since its construction in the 1880s and was in fair to very poor condition.
		The road was again compacted and graded before being covered with a water-based paste that dried to form a moisture-proof seal.
		This moisture sensitivity is the primary reason why foaming asphalt is not appropriate for every road, Jones says, although he adds that "as long as the subgrade is good, you will not have problems." The technique did not work on the Natchez Trace Parkway because numerous springs flow underneath the road.

		Soil samples from mine tailings piles and from residential yards near the site contain elevated levels of certain metals, but ATSDR evaluated possible exposure scenarios and determined that people are unlikely to come in contact with these metals at a level that would cause any harm.
		The primary exposure routes to contaminants in soil at residential homes and to indoor dust are inhalation of dust, dermal contact with soil and dust, and ingestion of soil or dust on contaminated foods (or mouthing of contaminated objects by toddlers and infants), or accidental ingestion of soil during outdoor activities.
		The highest detection of aluminum was at the home at 194 Old Mine Road, and the highest detections of chromium, iron, lead and phosphorus were all at the home at 190 Old Mine Road.
