You can't abandon slag piles anymore. There are such places from mines done a half century or more ago and abandoned .. often where the company has gone out of business. Coal companies pay reclamation fees to the federal government which its supposed to be used to reclaim old abandoned sites. I don't know how well the government does that ... or if the money's being used as intended.
