Reclamation and decommissioning costs.

Rate

AI Summary: The bill focuses on reclamation and decommissioning costs related to mineral mining operations on federal land. It aims to ensure that companies engaged in such activities are financially responsible for reclaiming the land post-mining and covering decommissioning costs. The key provisions include requiring companies to provide financial assurances for reclamation and decommissioning, establishing a trust fund for abandoned mine cleanup, and enhancing transparency in reporting these costs. This bill intends to prevent taxpayers from bearing the burden of environmental cleanup associated with mining activities and promote responsible resource extraction practices.
