This bill amends provisions in Code section 207.21, which provides for an abandoned coal mine reclamation program supported by an abandoned mine reclamation fund administered by the division of soil conservation and water quality of the department of agriculture and land stewardship. The bill requires the division to provide for the reclamation or drainage abatement of lead mines and allows the division to expend available federal moneys for that purpose.
