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A 1991 United States Department of the Interior audit report warned that the Non-Fuel Minerals Mining Law of Alabama is outdated and that mine operators are deliberately laying waste to mined land rather than restoring it. (2) The standards for coal mining reclamation have improved dramatically over the last 25 years. (3) The citizens of Alabama are endangered by unreclaimed highwalls, water impoundments, and open pits. (b) In view of these findings, the Legislature deems it necessary to deny the issuance of surface mine permits to operators who have demonstrated a pattern of willfully violating the mining law, and to improve environmental controls by requiring that highwalls be backfilled after mining. (Act 99-579, p. 1307, §1.)...

Section 40-13-80 (Repealed effective August 1, 2019) Legislative findings. The Legislature makes the following findings: (1) The Legislature understands the need to properly fund state agencies in order to match federal funds for enforcement programs. (2) The Surface Mining Commission is the delegated agency in this state authorized to enforce the federal Office of Surface Mining (OSM) programs, with a 50 percent match required in order to access federal funds. (3) Due to very limited General Fund monies available, along with numerous mining companies going out of business over the last eight years which has reduced permit fees and other monies paid to the Surface Mining Commission, there is a need for increased funding from other sources in addition to permit fee increases.
