Indiana Regulatory Program

We, the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM), are announcing receipt of a proposed amendment to the Indiana regulatory program (Indiana program) under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA or the Act). Indiana proposes revisions to its ownership/control provisions and miscellaneous adjustments to other regulations. Indiana proposes these revisions to be consistent with the corresponding Federal regulations, to clarify ambiguities, and to improve operational efficiency. This document provides the times and locations that the Indiana program and proposed amendments to this program are available for your inspection, the comment period during which you may submit written comments on the amendment, and the procedures that we will follow for the public hearing, if one is requested.
