The Unsuitable for Mining (UFM) Program operates in response to formal petitions being submitted to the Department by a person, business concern, environmental organization, local or state government agency, or any other public agency or citizen organization. A UFM petition is a written request with supporting technical documentation which formally asks the Department to consider designating a particular area as unsuitable for surface coal mining operations, or to have a previous designation terminated (revoked). If a petition is complete and is determined to have merit, the Department will then conduct a technical review, provide for public participation through notifications and public hearings, and make a recommendation to the Environmental Quality Board (EQB) for possible rulemaking. Regulations related to the UFM program can be found in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 86, Subchapter D. <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV>Name assigned to the area petitioned to be designated as unsuitable for mining.The entity that submitted the petition.An identification number assigned to the area petitioned to be designated as unsuitable for mining.The date the Department received the petition to designate the area as unsuitable for mining.The county the area is located in.Current status of the petition review.The date the Department made a final action on the petition.Acreage of area petitioned to be designated as unsuitable for mining.Acreage of area designated as unsuitable for mining during review.Acreage of coal field extents inside the area designated as unsuitable for mining.Acreage of area calculated in GIS using PA Albers Equal Area Conic projection.Square miles of area calculated in GIS using PA Albers Equal Area Conic projection.Additional notes.</DIV></DIV></DIV> Published by the PA Bureau of Mining Programs Disclaimer / Terms of Use: Not for commercial use or resale.
