Abstract
The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) is approving an amendment to the North Dakota regulatory program under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). North Dakota proposed revisions to rules for the definition of replacement of water supply, the issuance of rules, consolidation for multiple permit operations, the submission of an annual map to the Commission for all permit areas, and performance standards for the disposal of noncoal wastes. North Dakota intends to revise its program to be consistent with the corresponding Federal regulations.
