Abstract
This report is a result of a detailed survey of Iowa's coal strip mines in twenty-four counties of central and southeastern Iowa. A list of the legal location of each strip mine found is included in this report. Accompanying this list is a compilation of where each piece of data was found and in some cases estimated acreages of the sites. The location and distribution pattern of abandoned and active strip mines are shown on maps included within this report. An analysis of the data and the implications for future coal strip mining are included.
