Kearns Proposes Indiana Land Reclamation Commission
State Rep. R. Jerome Kearns filed a bill in Indianapolis to create an Indiana Land Reclamation Commission with power to regulate strip mining and assume duties from the Indiana Stream Pollution Board. A 10 cent per ton severance tax on coal would fund administration, with a five member panel appointed by the Governor and a full time executive director. The bill allows public hearings before permits and targets roughly 20 million tons of annual coal mining in Indiana.
