in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

A mine owner’s petition must include a properly executed surrender of the right to have the United States regulate mine debris and its production under the listed laws and rules. The surrender does not affect other mining methods used in the State on March 1, 1893, but the operation may not interfere with river navigability.

The petition must include an instrument properly executed and acknowledged as the State requires. The mine owner must surrender to the United States the right to regulate by law, later-enacted law, or related rules the way debris from the mine is restrained and the amount produced. This surrender does not affect the owner’s right to operate the mine by another method used in that State on March 1, 1893. The operation may not interfere with the navigability of the rivers named earlier in the statute.
