IMPROPER MINE TAILINGS

DISPOSAL
A problem of Baguio City

This can further problems with soil, water and air pollution

The predominant method of tailings disposal is by pumping and sub-aerial deposition of an

aqueous slurry which is somewhat costly

Government regulations need to be more strictly enforced

This affects the Lower Agno River system: Siltation of Irrigation Canals 

This affects the agriculture of the city reducing its production due to the siltation of irrigation

works and farmlands
