Threats of Flooding of Selected Mining Areas – Repair Measures

Terrain surface subsidence observed in mining areas results in the flattening of riverbeds and their embankments. This leads to increasingly deep erosion and siltation of riverbeds and surface currents, which causes the emergence of permanent overflow lands. This paper presents hydro – engineering solutions applied in the areas of the mining activity of JSW S.A., which serve the purpose of repairing and eliminating mining damage in the existing infrastructure. The presented repair measures make it possible to eliminate the threat of flooding in mining areas.
