Indiana Regulatory Program

OSM is approving a proposed amendment to the Indiana regulatory program (hereinafter referred to as the ``Indiana program'') under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). Indiana proposed revisions to its regulations pertaining to the small operator assistance program (SOAP). The topics covered in the proposed amendment are definitions, eligibility for assistance, application approval and notice, program services and data requirements, qualified laboratories, and applicant liability. The amendment is intended to revise the Indiana program to be consistent with the corresponding Federal regulations and to incorporate an additional criterion under which a SOAP applicant is responsible for reimbursing Indiana for the cost of services rendered under its program.
