DAISYTOWN, Pa. — (WPXI) – The sound of rushing water is the new normal for Daisytown residents. The water isn’t flowing down the creek, but rather deep into a newly opened hole. “I saw the sinkhole and found out that it had collapsed from the mine,” said Barbara Huey who lives in Daisytown. According to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), a section of the old Vesta 4 Mine that hasn’t been used since before 1920 collapsed. The water is now going into the mine shaft and has traveled half a mile underground, shutting down another road where the water is spewing out. Residents like Huey are asking the DEP for transparency on what’s going on. “Our concerns are how deep is it? Are there mine maps? Can they have a meeting, can they tell us to what extent it’s undermined? Has anyone determined how deep the hole is? What’s the time frame if you know on when this is going to be resolved?” Huey questioned. A spokesperson for the DEP says workers are attempting to divert the water away from the hole so they can fill it with cement to close off the opening by the end of the week. Huey, however, is looking down the line. “It’s like you have a big cut on your arm but you only have a little bit of a Band-aid. We still have to make do. We are going to do the little fix because we don’t know what else to do,” Huey said. Her concern is about where the water is going, and if it could it have eroded other mine shafts off the main branch, causing potential for future collapses. All her questions have gone unanswered by the state, she said.
