AI Summary
This bill authorizes the mining of specific federal coal reserves located in Musselshell County, Montana, under Federal Coal Lease MTM 97988, in accordance with the Bull Mountains Mining Plan Modification (Amendment 3 to the Bull Mountains Mine No. 1 Mining Plan) that was originally approved by the Department of the Interior on November 18, 2020. The bill requires the Secretary of the Interior to approve the mining plan modification within 30 days of the Act's enactment, without any modifications or delays, and specifically covers approximately 800 acres of federal land, including portions of sections 8, 10, and 22 in Township 6 North, Range 27 East of the Montana Principal Meridian. The legislation essentially provides a legal mandate to proceed with mining operations on these specified federal mineral lands, ensuring that the previously approved mining plan can be implemented without additional bureaucratic hurdles.
