   (Editor’s Note: On April 16, 1990, the general permit for small noncoal surface mining operations (those operations where less than 2,000 tons of noncoal minerals are extracted by surface mining in a given year), became effective because of the operation of section 26(b) of the Noncoal Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §  3326(b)). See 20 Pa.B. 2746 (May 26, 1990).)
