Ohio Regulatory Program

OSM is approving with one exception, proposed Program Amendment Number 62 Revised to the Ohio permanent regulatory program (hereinafter referred to as the Ohio program) under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). The amendment was initiated by Ohio and is intended to make the Ohio program as effective as the corresponding Federal regulations. The amendment concerns the removal of siltation structures prior to two years after the last augmented seeding upon a demonstration that revegetation is the best technology currently available for sediment control.
