  • AML Pilot Program) for FY 2016 – FY 2017
    Report on Abandoned Mine Land Reclamation Economic Development Pilot Program (AML Pilot Program) for FY 2016 – FY 2017 Prepared by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) Prepared by the OSMRE Program Support Directorate March 28, 2017 Page 1 of 18 I. Introduction and Background The Abandoned Mine Land Reclamation Economic Development Pilot Program (AML Pilot) for FY 2016 was authorized by Congress under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016 (Public Law 114-113) and enacted on December 18, 2015. Administered by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE), the AML Pilot provided $30 million of US Treasury Funds to each of the three Appalachian state AML Programs (Kentucky, Pennsylvania and West Virginia) which have the highest amount of unfunded coal-related problems that are classified as Priority 1 and Priority 2 abandoned mine lands sites and inventoried in the Enhanced Abandoned Mine Land Inventory System (e-AMLIS). The AML Pilot funds are to be used “for the reclamation of abandoned mine lands in conjunction with economic and community development and reuse goals”. This report describes implementation actions for the AML Pilot. II. Implementation of the AML Pilot Program OSMRE facilitated a meeting on February 24, 2016, in West Virginia with state AML Program staff from Kentucky, Pennsylvania and West Virginia to obtain input on the implementation on the AML Pilot Program. A second meeting was held on March 16, 2016, in Lexington, Kentucky to solicit input from additional stakeholders on the AML Pilot. OSMRE also participated in workshops with economic development organizations convened by the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) in the three states to provide information about the AML Pilot Program and to encourage state and local economic developers to identify opportunities to align and leverage their efforts with AML reclamation projects.

    1226 RULES AND REGULATIONS Title 25—ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION [25 PA. CODE CH. 93] Corrective Amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 93.9j The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 25 Pa. Code § 93.9j (relating to Drainage List J) as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau (Bureau) and published at 32 Pa.B. 4695, 4699 (September 28, 2002) and the official text as published in the Pennsylvania Code Reporter (Master Transmittal Sheet No. 337, December 2002), and as currently appearing in the Pennsylvania Code. When the amendments made by the Department at 32 Pa.B. 4695 were codified, an entry for the Lackawanna River in Luzerne County and an unnamed tributary to it were never deleted as proposed. Therefore, under 45 Pa.C.S. § 901: The Department has deposited with the Bureau a corrective amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 93.9j. The corrective amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 93.9j is effective as of December 7, 2002, the date the defective official text was announced in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The correct version of 25 Pa. Code § 93.9j appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the regulation. Annex A TITLE 25. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PART I. DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Subpart C.

  • Natural Resources Profile
    BBaacckkggrroouunndd SStttuuddyy ##66 Natural Resources Profile The Natural Resources Profile is designed to identify and analyze the vast assortment of natural resources that are found within or have an influence on Lebanon County. These resources and features include the physical geography; topography; soils; geologic formations and physiographic provinces; water resources; wellhead protection; woodlands; and wildlife and their value to economic pursuits, such as agriculture and forestry, and to the county’s overall environmental quality. The purpose of the profile is to help local, regional, and state government officials and decision-makers, developers, and citizens make more informed planning decisions. Sensitive environmental resources, threats to resource existence and function, development impacts, and types of protection techniques are of specific interest, as they aid in the identification of natural resources in need of remediation, features that impose development constraints, areas to be preserved, and places that are well-suited for development. Physical Geography Lebanon County is located in the Lebanon Valley between South Mountain, which rises to an elevation of 800 to 1,000 feet, and the Blue Mountain Chain to the north, which reaches peaks of 1,300 to 1,500 feet. The Lebanon Valley is divided into several smaller valleys by lines of hills parallel to the ensconcing mountains. The valley lies on the northern edge of the Southeast Piedmont Climatological Division which also includes Dauphin, Berks, Lancaster, Chester, Bucks, Montgomery, Delaware, and Philadelphia Counties and is more or less a transition zone from the piedmont region to the East Central Mountain and Middle Susquehanna Climatic Divisions.1 Climate The climate of Lebanon County is best described as humid continental.
