Updated as of May 29, 2018 We are approving, with certain exceptions and an additional requirement, an amendment to the Montana regulatory program (the "Montana program") under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA or the Act). Montana proposed revisions to, additions of, and deletions of its program rules (ARM 17.24.301-1309). The amendment included changes to: Definitions; permit application requirements; application processing and public participation; application review, findings, and issuance; permit conditions; permit renewal; performance standards; prospecting permits and notices of intent; bonding and insurance; protection of parks and historic sites; lands where mining is prohibited; inspection and enforcement; civil penalties; small operator assistance program (SOAP); restrictions on employee financial interests; blasters license; and revision of permits. Montana revised its program to be consistent with the corresponding Federal regulations and to implement previous statutory changes already approved by OSM.
