Comments: The "AML Fund Collections and Allocations for FY 2019" section shows total fee collections for coal 

produced in Fiscal Year (FY) 2019. The State and Tribal share allocated, which is 50% of total collections, will be the 

starting point for the State Share distribution on page 2. The Historic Coal funds include 30% of total collections plus 

funds transferred to Historic Coal (detailed on page 4). Transferred funds are from collections for certified States and 

Tribes as calculated on page 3. 

The "Status of the AML Fund" section shows fund balances as of November 30, 2019. The sequestered funds are not part 

of the unappropriated balance as the Federal budget authority states that these AML funds are unavailable and requires 

them to be tracked in a separate account. 

The AML fee collections for FY 2019 are for coal produced by operators from October 1st through September 30th. 

These amounts are received during the months of December 1st to November 30th. To ensure that these collections are 

accounted for properly, the calculation of the distribution was adjusted from the Federal Fiscal Year.

The Fiscal Year 2020 AML Distribution shows AML Fund balances for the collection of AML fees, interest earned, and 

transactions through November 30, 2019. Whereas OSMRE's FY2021 Budget Justifications Table 8 entitled Summary 

Status of Abandoned Mine Reclamation Fund shows the AML Fund balances as of September 30, 2019.

Comments: This page presents the distribution of the Historic Coal funds allocated and transferred for FY 2020, as shown on page 1. This represents the 30% allocation plus the amount transferred 

from certified States and Tribes equal to their FY 2020 Certified In Lieu distribution. Pursuant to section 411(h)(4)(A) as amended by the Continuing Resolution for FY 2020, OSMRE transferred the 

entire State/Tribal share allocation for certified States to Historic Coal, regardless of whether the certified State/Tribe received full Certified in Lieu equivalent.

This total is distributed based on each State's percentage of coal tonnage produced before the passage of SMCRA in 1977. OSMRE used tonnage data from OSMRE's Environmental Impact Statement 

of 1980. Only States and Tribes that are uncertified and have unfunded Priority 1&2 problems in the AML inventory are eligible for Historic Coal funds. As a result, tonnage percentages are adjusted 

to exclude ineligible States and Tribes. Specifically, Utah's Historic Coal is reduced to its P1/P2 inventory amount per Section 402(g)(5)(A). Each State's individual calculated percentage is multiplied 

by the total historic coal funds available to calculate a potential distribution. The FY 2020 Historic Coal funds distribution in the last column is rounded to the nearest dollar for each State.

Comments: This page presents the Minimum Program Make Up funding distribution. The State and Tribal Share, Certified In Lieu, and Historic Coal distributions for 

each State and Tribe (calculated on pages 2-4) are added together to produce a preliminary total distribution. Only States and Tribes that are uncertified and have 

unfunded Priority 1&2 coal problems in the AML inventory are eligible for minimum program funding. The Minimum Program Need column shows the amount each 

State needs to bring total funding up to $3,000,000 or the amount of the unfunded high priority coal problems in its inventory, whichever is lower. Utah did not 

qualify for this distribution per Section 402(g)(8)(A) since its State Share distribution equals the amount of its P1/P2 inventory. The FY 2020 Minimum Program Make 

Up distribution in the last column is rounded to the nearest dollar for each State.

Funding for Abandoned Mine Land (AML) grants come from coal receipts collected and deposited in the AML trust fund and also from general Treasury funds. These funds are distributed through a congressionally mandated formula under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 

1977 (SMCRA). Reductions required under sequestration for fiscal year 2020 were calculated by the Office of Management and Budget in its Report to Congress on the Joint Committee Reductions for Fiscal Year 2020. The required reductions were effective on the date of the issuance of 

the Presidential sequestration order (pursuant to 2 USC 901a), which for fiscal year 2020 was March 18, 2019.
