Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The Good Samaritan Remediation of Abandoned Hardrock Mines Act of 2024 establishes a federal permitting program to encourage private parties and nonprofits to voluntarily remediate abandoned hardrock mine sites without incurring liability for historic contamination. The bill creates two types of permits—Good Samaritan permits for remediation work and investigative sampling permits for site assessment—and provides liability protections for qualifying parties who undertake cleanup activities. It applies to mines on both federal and non-federal land where no current responsible owner or operator can be identified, and includes provisions for coordination with federal land management agencies and tribal consultation.
