The testimony explores the following topics: * The effectiveness of SMCRA in regulating surface coal mining * The economic impact of SMCRA on the coal industry * The environmental impact of surface coal mining * The role of the OSMRE in enforcing SMCRA The book provides a valuable overview of the history of SMCRA.
