    Directives


    The Office of Surface Mining policy directives are written communication provided in the form of instructions, manuals, notices, guides, policies, and procedures. These policy documents assist employees in effectively performing their jobs.

    Rescinded and Inactive directives are no longer in effect. These directives are archival documents for historical purposes and can be retrieved in our Directive Archive.

    NOTE: Directives are provided in Adobe Portable Document (PDF). If you experience problems with downloading these files, visit our Adobe Acrobat Help page.

    Some Directives listed contain two documents. The first document is a signed version, and the second document is the same information without a signature. The signed version is accessible to people who do not have a need to use assistive technology in order to read the information. However, the second document titled accessible version is to accommodate people with vision impairments who rely on various assistive technology to access the information on this website, such as screen readers, which translate what's on a screen into automated audible output. This gives the disabled community the ability to listen to the information by way of assistive technology.

    To learn more on accessiblity, visit our Accessibility page and the Section 508 website.
