The text of S.2879, the Indian Coal Mining Regulatory Act of 1984, describes an effort to improve cooperation between the Secretary of the Interior and Indian tribes with respect to the regulation of coal mining operations on Indian reservation lands and the acquisition and reclamation of abandoned mines on this land. The bill notes the special jurisdictional status of Indian lands, making separate legislation necessary. It recognizes the need to rest regulatory control with Indian tribes, and establishes a trust fund to pay for reclamation projects.
