KY Rev Stat § .097 (2016) What's This?

Download as PDF 350.097 Protection and location of pollinator habitats on coal mine reclamation sites. The General Assembly finds that the reclamation of coal mine sites can benefit from pollinator habitat sites. These sites are an important conservation resource which will encourage and protect the habitat for pollinators like honeybees, bumble bees, and other bee species. The protection and location of pollinator sites situated on mine sites can increase the revegetation rates during the reclamation period which supports soil and hydrologic stability. Therefore, the General Assembly hereby directs the cabinet to develop a plan in conjunction with the Division of Conservation to encourage coal licensees to locate and protect pollinator sites on reclamation sites and to use high-value trees and shrubs to aid in pollen transfer. Effective: July 15, 2010 History: Created 2010 Ky. Acts ch. 19, sec. 1, effective July 15, 2010.
