The Abandoned Mine Land Economic Revitalization (AMLER) Program is administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI), Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE). Consistent with the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (Public Law 117-328), OSMRE has notified eligible states and tribes that $135 million in fiscal year (FY) 2023 AMLER funding is available. Kentucky, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia are each allocated $29.347 million; Alabama, Ohio, and Virginia are each allocated $11.739 million; and the Navajo Nation, Hopi Tribe, and Crow Tribe are each allocated $3.913 million. The AMLER Program is an opportunity for states, tribes, and local communities to collaboratively return impacted areas to productive reuse and achieve the economic and community development goals identified for the community and/or region. State and Tribal AML Programs, in consultation with state, tribal, and local economic and community development authorities, develop eligible projects with a nexus to AML land and water reclamation and economic/community development. AMLER funds can be used to reclaim impacted lands/waters and/or for end-use development of the site. The number of projects selected by each state and tribe will vary depending on requested amounts and funding availability.
