Abstract
We, the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM), are announcing the removal of two instructions to the State of Kentucky pertaining to required amendments to the Kentucky regulatory program (the "Kentucky program"). The Kentucky program was established under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA or the Act) and authorizes Kentucky to regulate surface coal mining and reclamation operations in Kentucky. We are removing the instructions because the actions required by our instructions were previously satisfied and nothing further is required by the state.
