摘要

As the lead Federal agency for actions taken on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the BLM is responsible for the identification of all environmental laws that pertain to the investigation and clean up of abandoned mines and other contaminated sites. This technical reference provides information to BLM abandoned mine land (AML) and hazardous materials site managers on how they may determine which Federal and State regulations apply to their cleanup activities. Examples and case studies are given for further insight into this process.
