Miners Raise Objections to New Strip Mining Rules
Miners from across Ohio converged on the Department of Natural Resources building to oppose proposed rules for strip mining authored by Ernest J. Gebhart. They argue the rules add undue burdens and threaten smaller operators, while Gebhart and the department foresee only minor changes from hearings. The debate coincides with a broader legal and press freedom discussion in the state senate.
