This is a test of the public comment section.

Following are suggested upgrades to the GARD Guide:

- Chapter 6 still needs considerable improvement particularly by adding design considerations for water covers and waste rock segregation/blending. Also the section on costing of ARD prevention and mitigation should be expanded. - the coal sections need to be reviewed by practitioners outside the SE US coal fields - particularly in South Africa and Australia. (nico testing the comment function) - the risk based approach could be made more explicit in chapters 5 to 7 and in 9. - the role of project geologists and considerations during exploration could be expanded in chapter 5 - chapters 6 and 7 need introductory flow charts to assist in evaluating the application of technologies. We were not able to advance the BCARD or U of Utah charts for chapters 6 and 7 respectively - the European regs section of chapter 3 needs to be written by the Europeans - as suggested by others - more mini-case studies and also web links - the executive summary should be translated into spanish, mandarin, french, portugese and russian - a photo gallery with captions would be helpful - possibly with the mini-case studies. - overall as suggested by Bob Kleinmann, the technical level of the entire guide should be raised over time
