Guiding opinions on strengthening the restoration and comprehensive treatment of mine geological environment

2. Strengthen the implementation of protection and governance recovery programmes. Effectively strengthen the protection of cultivated land, improve the standards for the preparation of mine geological environment protection and treatment restoration plans and land reclamation plans, and promote the establishment of a simple and practical work system for the compilation of mine geological environment protection and treatment restoration plans and land reclamation plans according to local conditions. Implement the main responsibility of program preparation, review and implementation, and ensure the scientific, rational and serious nature of the program.

3. Strengthen development and protection process supervision. The responsibility and implementation of the mine geological environment restoration and comprehensive management are taken as an important content of the information society publicity of mining enterprises and an important aspect of sampling inspection, and the social supervision and law enforcement supervision of the main responsibility of the mining right holders are strengthened.

4. Integrate policy and finance. All localities may, according to their actual local conditions, organically combine the restoration and management of the geological environment of mines with the construction of new rural areas, the renovation of rundown areas, the relocation of ecological migrants, the control of geological disasters, land improvement, the linkage between the increase and decrease of urban and rural construction land, and the reclamation and utilization of abandoned industrial and mining land, and strengthen the integration and rational use of policies and project funds to form a joint force. Effectively improve the effectiveness of mine geological environment protection and restoration. If the cultivated land is seriously damaged for historical reasons and cannot be restored, the corresponding cultivated land shall be supplemented or the amount of cultivated land shall be adjusted according to regulations.

Third, safeguards

1. Strengthening organizational support.

1. Work programme. The competent departments of land and resources at all levels should fully understand the significance of strengthening the restoration and comprehensive management of the geological environment of mines, find out the situation, sort out the problems, sort out the work ideas, highlight the key points of work, put forward solutions to the problems in different areas, and form a clear goal, task implementation, strong guarantee and practical work plan. It is incorporated into the overall layout of local economic and social development and ecological civilization construction, and relies on the coordination and promotion of local governments and relevant departments to ensure the realization of various work objectives.
