This grant is for the critical purpose of addressing and mitigating severe safety and environmental hazards resulting from historic mining, milling, and mineral processing operations on public lands. It specifically targets the closure and comprehensive remediation of these abandoned sites, which pose direct threats to human health and safety. The funding is intended to support projects that eliminate or significantly reduce these risks through strategic closure activities and thorough environmental restoration. This includes securing dangerous openings, stabilizing contaminated areas, and implementing measures to prevent further ecological damage. By focusing on these essential interventions, the grant aims to safeguard communities, protect the natural environment, and ensure the long-term viability and safety of public lands impacted by past industrial activities.
