Yarışma Özeti(Summary):
AMD &ART, Inc. provides an innovative approach to
Appalachia's most blighting environmental liability: acid mine drainage (AMD).
Our nonprofit organization engages professionals from many disciplines to
explore innovative pragmatic ways of responding to this problem. The community
of Vintondale, a small coal patch town 15 miles northeast of Johnstown, has
joined with the artists, historians, and scientists of AMD&ART to transform
35 acres of abandoned mine land into a community park rich with educational and
interpretive content.

AMD &ART, Inc. provides an innovative approach to Appalachia's most
blighting environmental liability: acid mine drainage (AMD). Our nonprofit
organization engages professionals from many disciplines to explore innovative
pragmatic ways of responding to this problem. The community of Vintondale, a
small coal patch town 15 miles northeast of Johnstown, has joined with the
artists, historians, and scientists of AMD&ART to transform 35 acres of
abandoned mine land into a community park rich with educational and interpretive
content. An AMD passive treatment system, history wetlands and recreational area
were designed by a multidisciplinary team to address coal country's water and
land reclamation in dynamic new ways. This design competition will address a
critical moment in this larger project – the return of clean water into the
Blacklick Creek after being filtered through the passive treatment system.
Entries are due February 15, 2004. We seek entries from students currently
enrolled in a graduate or undergraduate programs. While there are no
restrictions on major, creative integration of art and science is preferred. We
encourage collaborative or team submissions as designs must respond to
hydrologic, cultural, historic, and economic landscape demands.
