ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF OSM AGRONOMIC AND BIOLOGICAL SERVICES REGS - POSTMINING

(1981). 48 pp.

Type of Report: Final Report

Abstract:

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

current and proposed regulations on postmining land uses. 1) The current and

proposed postmining land use 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 regulations were analyzed. Assumptions and

results relative to each of these are described in this report, including role

of small entities (regional strip coal production).

Type of Report: Final Report

Abstract:

Study focused on 3 tasks: 1) Literature search and preliminary survey of

several states to determine extent of available information on reclamation

projects. 2) Development of list of successful and unsuccessful land

reclamation projects that involved a change in postmining land use. 3)

Recommendations on criteria for evaluating alternative land uses in planned

reclamation projects.
