ANNUAL REPORTMembers:

The following members served on the Land Reclamation Com-mittee during 1980:

DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCESREPRESENTATIVES:

CITIZENS' REPRESENTATIVES:

June Neder, Allegany CountyHugh Trimble, Garrett County

COUNTY REPRESENTATIVES:

Lois Crossland, Allegany CountyRoger Bray, Garrett County

SOIL CONSERVATION DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVES:

Craig Hartsock, Allegany Soil Conservation DistrictShaun Sanders, Garrett Soil Conservation District

COAL INDUSTRY REPRESENTATIVES:

George StanyaJames M. Coffroth

Meetings and Time:

The Land Reclamation Committee meets at the Bureau of Mine'soffice in Frostburg, Maryland. All meetings are open to the publicand are announced in the Maryland Register and local papers.

Functions and Duties of the Committee:

The Land Reclamation Committee oversees land reclamationactivities related to the surface mining of coal in Maryland. It isspecifically directed by statute (Annotated Code of Maryland,Section 7-205/b/) to: " study, recommend, arid approve allprocedures for reclamation, conservation, and revegetation of anyarea affected by open pit mining within the State

—


Specific duties addressed by the Committee during its monthlymeetings include:

1. Review and approval of reclamation plans.2. Review and approval of Annual Mining and Reclamation

Progress Reports, Final Reports, and revegetation bondreleases.

3. Establish amounts of revegetation bond for each operation.

The Land Reclamation Committee visits every site for whichmining permit applications have been filed to determine the suit-ability of the reclamation plan. The Committee also examines sitesfor purposes of approving annual progress reports and final reports.

—


RE VEGETATION OF STRIP MINED LANDS

The State Land Reclamation Committee voted to release 824.8acres of reclaimed surface coal mined land, from a total of 1,299acres eligible for revegetation bond release, during 1980. The actionwas taken after consideration of sixty-nine (69) planting reportsfiled by thirty-one (31) coal companies. Members of the State LandReclamation Committee visited each area to review and evaluate theplanting reports during late September and early October.

Prior to release of bonds, the State's surface mining regulationsrequire a minimum of two growing seasons after planting for evalua-tion to determine if:

(1) The herbaceous coverage is at least 80 percent;

(2) Bare areas do not exceed 2,500 square feet;

(3) Permanent legumes, well distributed, comprise at least 10percent of coverage;

(4) Erosion rills and gullies do not exceed nine inches in depth;

(5) There are no depressions in the area: and

(6) If trees and shrubs are planted, at least 600 well distributedand living stems must exist per acre.

Longer evaluation time may be required, even if an area meets thesecriteria at the end of two growing easons, if the health conditionsof the vegetation are questionable.

All reclaimed acres were planted with a mixture of permanentand temporary grasses and legumes to insure adequate erosioncontrol protection. In addition to herbaceous cover, trees for forestrypurposes and trees and shrubs specifically planted for wildlife benefitwere planted on 110 acres.


The principal reasons for disapproval of 474.2 eligible acres werefailure to meet the legume requirements and rills and gullies exceed-ing nine inches.

The percentage of acres released from acres eligible for releasewas down somewhat this year for several reasons: (1) the quality andquantity of follow-up topdressing and repair work was not up tostandard; (2) more severe scrutinization by the Land ReclamationCommittee; and (3) the pattern of rainfall and temperature thissummer and fall was not conducive for good sustained growth.

During the early spring of each year, a listing of acres eligible forrevegetation bond release is compiled. Copies of this listing can beobtained by contacting the Bureau of Mines office.

Two significant concerns of strip mine revegetation work during1980 were the establishment of trees in heavy herbaceous cover andthe use of municipal sewage sludge for the revegetation of back-filled strip mined land. To begin to alleviate these concerns, the U.S.Forest Service held symposiums during the fall of 1980 in Lexington,Kentucky and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to inform various governingagencies of the latest information and results obtained. It was pro-posed to have annual symposiums until adequate data can be distributed among the various coal producing states. Maryland hasaccomplished research work in both areas of concern and can con-tribute to the knowledge of other interested parties.

ABANDONED MINE LAND RECLAMATION

A total of 65 acres of abandoned mines were reclaimed by sixdifferent contracts covering backfilling, revegetation, and diversionconstruction. The total cost of the six contracts .vas $203,450. Thesource of the constructions funds is the Bituminous Coal Open-Pit Mining and Reclamation Fund. The Bituminous Coal Open-Pit Mining and Reclamation Fund is derived from a l5cent perton of coal mined reclamation surcharge and a $40 per acre of landmined reclamation fee paid by the coal operators.

In addition to the six contracts mentioned above, the Bureaucompleted two emergency projects funded by the U.S. Departmentof Interior, Office of Surface Mining (OSM). The first project consist-ed of the stabilization of seven buildings on the Frostburg StateCollege campus affected by abandoned deep mine subsidence.Three of the buildings were funded by OSM at a total cost of$1,000,134; and the other four buildings were funded by the Stateof Maryland at a total cost of $1,250,488. The buildings werestabilized by injecting a flyash-cement mixture into the mine voidsto provide support and reduce the likelihood of future subsidenceproblems.

The second OSM funded project was for the control of drainagefrom an abandoned deep mine which had impounded water and sub-sequently erupted, near Barton, causing flood damage to sevenproperties. The project consisted of the installation of an elipticalconcrete culvert, 1,400 feet of rock lined channel, and an energydissipation basin. Total total cost was $121,500 for both engineeringand construction.


The Bureau also completed a double bulk head mine sealingproject in the Bear Creek watershed near Friendsville. The cost ofinspection and construction was $119,890. The Bureau receivedfunds from the Appalachian Regional Commission in the amount of$41,250 and the remaining funds for the project came from theMine Reclamation and Water Quality Restoration Loan Fund of1970. The project consisted of the construction of two gravel bulkheads grouted in place, a concrete seal injected between the bulkheads, and a grout curtain extended 150 feet in both directions fromthe seal.

Presently, the Appalachian regional Commission is funding adaylighting project in the Cherry Creek Basin. Daylighting is atechnique used to remove abandoned underground mine workings bysurface mining methods to eliminate ground water from becomingcontaminated by the mine workings. This project will eliminate thelast known abandoned underground mine drainage source in theCherry Creek watershed. The project is approximately 75% completeand is expected to be complete in the Fall of 1981.

In addition to the projects mentioned above, the Deer ParkDaylighting demonstration project was completed in 1980. TheDeer Park Daylighting Project was a co-operative project between theU.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Maryland Depart-ment of Natural Resources. Initiated in 1972, its purpose was todemonstrate the feasibility of "daylighting" an abandoned deepmined area to abate the acid mine drainage flowing from the deepmine.

Construction work on the project was started in 1976 and com-pleted in August of 1979. A post-construction monitoring programwas initiated in August, 1979 and completed in September, 1980.The data is being compiled and a final report for the project isbeing drafted.
