9-16-1.1
Section 9-16-1.1 Legislative findings. (a) The Alabama Legislature has found and determined
the following: (1) A 1991 United States Department of the Interior audit report warned that
the Non-Fuel Minerals Mining Law of Alabama is outdated and that mine operators are deliberately

controls by requiring that highwalls be backfilled after mining. (Act 99-579, p. 1307, §1.)...
