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A 1991 United States Department of the Interior audit report warned that the Non-Fuel Minerals Mining Law of Alabama is outdated and that mine operators are deliberately laying waste to mined land rather than restoring it. (2) The standards for coal mining reclamation have improved dramatically over the last 25 years.
