Public Notice: LQD Advisory Board Meeting - March 20, 2025 10:00 a.m. (MST)

*_NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING_*

*_DEQ LAND QUALITY DIVISION_*

The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Land Quality Division (LQD), will hold an Advisory Board (AB) Meeting beginning at 10:00 a.m., on Thursday, March 20, 2025.  The meeting will be held via video conference call.  The major item of discussion will be a presentation of proposed revisions to LQD Coal Chapter 12, Procedures Applicable to Surface Coal Mining Operations. The proposed revisions were drafted to recognize a specific type of reclamation bond estimate adjustment that would not be considered a bond release request. The LQD is proposing to allow for a bond reduction request based on a decrease in the volume of material required to reclaim the final cut, pit or void created at a surface mining operation. The LQD will be seeking the AB’s advice on whether the proposed rules should proceed to formal rulemaking.

The proposed rules may be downloaded at [link removed]. Comments on the proposed rules may be sent to Land Quality Division, 200 W. 17th Street, Suite 10, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002, or by using the electronic comment portal at [link removed]. Comments must be received by the close of business on March 19, 2025. To participate in the meeting please contact Craig Hults at (307) 777-7066 or by e-mail at [email protected]_.  Dial-in information will be provided to those that request access to the conference call prior to March 19, 2025.
