Wyoming Regulatory Program

We, the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM), are announcing the withdrawal of a proposed rule pertaining to an amendment to the Wyoming regulatory program (the Wyoming program) and its coal rules and regulations. Wyoming submitted the amendment to address required ownership and control rule changes that OSM identified in a letter to Wyoming dated October 2, 2009, under 30 CFR 732.17(c), and four deficiencies that were identified by OSM during the review of a previous program amendment (WY-038-FOR; Docket ID OSM-2009- 0012).
