Raw coal shouldn't have much of an effect. I'm sure the EPA will require the coal be extracted as much as it possibly can be. Since it was raw coal and not ash or refuse I don't see it being too harmful. Obviously, it's not good. But Coal is just a rock and shouldn't be too much of a problem. I know below Cumberland falls you can find coal all over the banks from where it naturally washes out of the hillside.
