## Abstract

OSM is announcing the approval of a proposed amendment to the Ohio permanent regulatory and Abandoned Mined Land reclamation programs (hereinafter referred to as the Ohio programs) under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). The amendment was initiated by Ohio and is intended to reduce and reorganize the engineering staff of the Ohio programs in response to recent drops in Ohio coal production. The amendment would abolish 3.6 Ohio engineering staff positions and would reorganize the remaining engineering staff positions to assume the existing job duties. This program amendment does not propose any revisions to Ohio's coal mining law or rules.
