As a follow-up to the highly successful Abandoned Mine Lands Symposium hosted by MMSA, we encourage you to attend the following webinar hosted by EPA.
Webinar Purpose: The Good Samaritan Remediation of Abandoned Hardrock Mines Act of 2024 was signed into law on December 17, 2024. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is developing a Good Samaritan mine cleanup program to implement a new, more efficient strategy to address abandoned hardrock mines. EPA’s December Good Sam webinar is for all interested parties – private, public, State and local governments, Tribes, and non-governmental organizations. EPA will cover the scope of the legacy abandoned mine problem in the US, highlight key aspects of the law, discuss the program’s permitting process and NEPA review, and explain the program’s goals and implementation timelines.
