What the agency says
The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM), are approving an amendment to the Wyoming regulatory program (Wyoming program) under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA or the Act). The Wyoming Land Quality Division (WLQD) submitted this proposed amendment in response to our January 19, 2024 partial approval of an amendment to WLQD's regulations for coal exploration by drilling (SATS No. WY-050-FOR; Docket ID No. OSM-2021- 0004). In the final rule, under the heading "Revisions to Wyoming's Rules That We Are Not Approving," OSM listed several provisions containing typographical errors that WLQD would need to correct through future rulemaking. WLQD now proposes those corrections with this amendment (SATS No. WY-055-FOR; Docket ID No. OSM-2025-0002).
