Montana Regulatory Program

The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) is announcing receipt of a proposed amendment to the Montana regulatory program (hereinafter, the "Montana program") under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). Montana proposed revisions to, and additions of statutes about, the definition of what constitutes a mine operator, the notice requirements for alternate reclamation plans; the use of introduced species on lands mined, disturbed, or redisturbed after May 2, 1978, and reseeded prior to January 1, 1984; a new statute section concerning subsidence; and other editorial revisions. Montana intends to revise its program to be consistent with SMCRA, provide additional safeguard, clarify ambiguities, and improve operational efficiency.
