Use of Multiple Funding Resources for AML Reclamation-- Multiple resources are sometimes used to reclaim AML problems. If more than one resource is used, you must answer question 19 and/or 20 for each resource. The PAD will identify the primary funding source and all other resources should be listed separately on the same PAD (will require duplicate copies of questions 19 and/or 20).

Other resources can include, but are not limited to:

• Other federal agencies such as the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, or U.S. Forest Service;

• Other State, Tribal, or local government organization’s non-OSM funding;

• Fishing or recreation organizations;

• Watershed/environmental organizations;

• In-kind services provided by private companies or various organizations;

• Other OSM funding sources, e.g., Appalachian Cleans Stream Initiative (CLA) projects may be partially funded with Acid Mine Drainage Plan (AMA) funds. These should be shown as separate funding sources.

• Net proceeds from the sale of coal mined Aincidental@ to the AML project, e.g., if projects carried out under the February 12, 1999, AEnhancing AML Reclamation@ rule generate money from the sale of coal mined incidental to the AML project, the net proceeds are applied to the project funding and are shown as a separate funding source.

Use your best judgment to allocate costs by problem type to each resource. Often these will be very rough estimates until the reclamation is completed.

19a. Are non-Fund resources being used?

NO If YES, see Chapter 2 Part E for instructions.

YES The information in this table must be entered into AMLIS for each non-AML Fund source.

Distribute the cost among the identified work problems by units and cost. Round units to one decimal place. Round dollar values to nearest whole dollar. Also, circle the appropriate type of measure--metric or English--used for each keyword unit. If English measure is used, AMLIS will convert it to metric.

Completions Note: Because a date must be associated with problems completed after March 31, 2001, it is recommended that the actual completed units and costs associated with the date be entered into AMLIS instead of the revised cumulative totals. While you may still enter revised cumulative totals, you can no longer enter cumulative values for units completed in more than one month except when entering information about units completed prior to March 31, 2001 you may enter one date for all units being entered even if they were completed on multiple dates prior to March 31, 2001 as AMLIS treats all dates on or before March 31, 2001 as March 2001.

PAPERWORK REDUCTION STATEMENT

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501) requires us to inform you that: Federal Agencies may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. This information is being collected in order to update the abandoned mine lands inventory system. This information will be used to ensure that the most serious problem areas are selected for reclamation through apportionment of funds to States and Tribes. The obligation to respond is required to obtain a benefit.

Public reporting burden for this form is estimated to average 2 hours per response to update the form and 4 hours for each new submission, including time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining data, and completing and reviewing the form. Direct comments regarding the burden estimate or any other aspect of this form to the Information Collection Clearance Officer, Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, Room 210 SIB, 1951 Constitution Ave, NW, Washington, D.C. 20240.
