Abstract
OSM is approving an amendment to the Texas regulatory program (Texas program) under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). Texas proposed deletions, revisions, and addition of regulations concerning air pollution control plans; reclamation plans: general requirements; air resources protection; stabilization of surface areas; and coal processing plants: performance standards. Texas intends to bring its regulations into alignment with Federal regulations that were revised in 1983.
