    The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) is seeking comments on a proposed renewal of an information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This collection focuses on procedures for reclaiming private lands affected by mining, as authorized by the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977. The agency is particularly interested in feedback regarding the necessity, timeliness, and burden estimate of the information collection. Public comments will be accepted until February 4, 2025, and can be submitted via mail or email, referencing OMB Control Number 1029-0057.

    Simple Explanation

    The OSMRE wants people's thoughts on how they gather important information to fix land hurt by mining, but they only expect one person to respond each year, and it could feel like a ton of work (taking about 120 hours). They also want to reassure everyone that they try to use tech to make it easier and keep personal details safe, though they can't promise total privacy.
