Description:
Abstract:
This data set identifies all coal mine permits in Illinois as of May, 1998. Scale is 1:24,000.

Purpose:
To monitor compliance with land reclamation statutes under Public Law 95-87, the 1977 Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act, permit boundaries were digitized from mostly 1:4800 scale engineering maps of various quality submitted by coal producers. Registration was to known points on 1:24,000 7.5 min. USGS topo maps, the reason for the nominal scale of 1:24,000. The permit boundary is one of potentially five data layers for each permit. This information is suitable for registration of other material at similar scales. Polygon attribute data, identifying permitted areas, are present. The individual coverages were combined to produce the coverage coalprmt. These data are appropriate for use in local and regional thematic analysis. For this combined coverage, data are not appropriate as a geodetic or engineering base, due to registration methods.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Data have been checked, plotted, and verified against source material on a permit by permit basis. All polygons are attributed.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Data set is topologically structured polygon data.
Completeness_Report:
Permit boundaries are dynamic. The coverage is a static reflection of the data as of 31 December 1995. Because of the potential overlap of adjacent permitted areas, this combined coverage may not always reflect the specific boundary of individual permits.
