REHABILITATION PRESCRIPTIONS
✔ A guideline, outlining the key considerations for developing site-specific five-year
rehabilitation plans, will be developed for Met Coal open cut and underground operations.
✔ Selective placement of problematic spill (e.g. acidic, dispersive, vulnerable to spontaneous
combustion) will be standard practice.
✔ Topsoil, growth medium and capping materials (i.e. rock for dispersive, clays for TFS75s)
will be selectively stripped and conserved for use in the rehabilitation process.
✔ Seed procurement processes will be auditable.
River pylons to be considered to reduce subsidence in waterways.
Site-specific and auditable rehabilitation standard operating procedures (i.e. landform

Subsidence é subsidência, ou afundamento da terra. Possui diversas causas, entre elas a mineração.

The subsidence can be prevented by an adequate support system by adopting rib and sill pillars, steel and wood, cable and rock bolting, plugging of cracks

Sendo assim, minha sugestão de tradução, para o contexto em questão, seria pilares fluviais. Também seria possível fundações fluviais, ou qualquer coisa nesse sentido.
Example sentence:

Pilar fluvial com faces frontais inclinadas para dentro
