Abstract
We, the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE), approve an amendment to the Pennsylvania regulatory program under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA or the Act). The amendment revises the Pennsylvania program by adding language consistent with section 5 of the Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conversation Act, which specifies circumstances where a finding of presumptive evidence of potential pollution under the Commonwealth's Clean Streams Law is not warranted.
