Abstract:

 

Report briefly describes research methodology and summary of regulatory costs,

key cost items related to regulatory compliance, regional analysis, and relative

incremental costs at each level of permitting requirements.  Appendix:   Brief

description of a model mine for each regulation as modified for purposes of

study.  Report is intended to examine impacts of Office of Surface Mining

regulations, the process through which permit applications are received,

reviewed, renewed, and general requirements for coal exploration.  Conclusion:  

Neither set of regulations imposed measure impacts and need not be analyzed

further.

Type of Report:   Final Report

 

Abstract:

 

This report presents an analysis of the cost impacts and benefits related to the

current and proposed regulations related to topsoil.  The analysis was conducted

in 3 parts.  1) The current and proposed topsoil regulations were reviewed and

analyzed to identify absolute and incremental cost elements. 2) The identified

cost elements were applied to each mine model and region, where appropriate, to

generate regional costs.  3) The benefits related to the regulations  were

analyzed.  In addition, the impacts on small entities are discussed in this

report.
