There is a reason why old tailings piles should best be left alone. GDSM/WSRA needs to do carefull due diligence before disturbing the tailings at the Davis Dunkirk Mine ("Azurite Mine"). This is from http://www.azdeq.gov/environ/water/wastewater/download/badctmanual.pdf:

The following facilities may be present at mining, processing, or smelting and refining operations and are considered, or deemed by A.R.S. 49-241.B, to be categorical discharging facilities requiring an APP, unless exempt pursuant to A.R.S. 49-250:
- Surface impoundments(2) including holding, storage settling, treatment or disposal pits, ponds and lagoons (A.R.S. 49-241.B.1);
- Solid waste disposal facilities except for mining overburden and wall rock that has not and will not be subject to mine leaching operations (A.R.S. 49-241.B.2);
- Injection wells (A.R.S. 49-241.B.3);
- Mine tailing piles and ponds(2) (A.R.S. 49-241.B.6);
- Mine leaching operations(2) (A.R.S. 49-241.B.7);
- Sewage or sludge ponds and wastewater treatment facilities (A.R.S. 49-241.B.11);
- Septic tank systems with a capacity of greater than two thousand gallons per day (A.R.S. 49-241.B.8);
- Facilities which add a pollutant to a salt dome formation, salt bed formation, dry well or underground cave or mine (A.R.S. 49-241.B.5); and
