State Share Balance: Current status
| The Surface Mining Law specifies that 50 percent of the reclamation fees collected in each state with an approved reclamation program, or within Indian lands where the tribe has an approved reclamation program, are to be allocated to that state or tribe. This 50 percent is designated as the state or tribal share of the fund. The remaining 50 percent (the federal share) is used by the Office of Surface Mining to complete high priority and emergency projects under its Federal Reclamation Program, to fund the Small Operator Assistance Program (SOAP), to fund additional projects directly through state reclamation programs, and to pay collection, audit, and administrative costs. Following is the state share balance of the Abandoned Mine Land Fund for FY 2005. The right column is the current balance. |
