Title IV of SMCRA authorizes OSMRE to provide grants, funded from permanent (mandatory) appropriations, to eligible States and Tribes. Recipients use these funds: To reclaim the highest priority AML coal mine sites that were abandoned prior to the enactment of SMCRA in 1977; to reclaim eligible noncoal sites; for projects that address the impacts of mineral development; and for non-reclamation projects. Description of the Regulatory Program Title V of SMCRA authorizes OSMRE to provide grants to States and Tribes to develop, administer, and enforce State and Tribal regulatory programs that address, among other things, the disturbances from coal mining operations. Additionally, upon our approval of a State or Tribal regulatory program, Title V authorizes that State or Tribe to assume regulatory primacy and act as the regulatory authority within the State or Tribe, and to administer and enforce its approved regulatory program.

See Order No. 28 (Oct. 8, 1987), unreviewed by, Comm’n Notice (Oct. 29, 1987). The Commission terminated eight (8) respondents based on settlement, namely, Meditech, Polycraft, Chung Kong, Euroweld, Daewang, Keron, Gideons, and Lien Bin.

On April 29, 1988, the Commission issued a general exclusion order prohibiting the entry into the United States, except under license, of (1) reclosable plastic bags and tubing manufactured according to a process which, if practiced in the United States, would infringe claims 1, 3, 4, or 5 of the ‘872 Patent; and (2) reclosable plastic bags and tubing which infringe the ‘120 Trademark.
