Reclamation Regulations for Mineral Mining [4 VAC 25 ‑ 31]
Time Waiver Request
(3020)
Action:
Amendments to reclamation regulations for mineral mining resulting from periodic review
(5876)
Stage:
Proposed

Since more than 180 days have passed since the end of the NOIRA stage, a Time Frame Waiver must be granted by the Governor's office.

This waiver was requested on 5/21/2012

Agency Reason: DMME requests a waiver due to turnover in key positions within the Division of Mineral Mining, an extensive dialogue with relevant stakeholders over the content of the regulation and the emergence of other high profile, high priority issues which required a great deal of staff time.

The request was approved on 9/14/2012
