Abstract: This annotative bibliography of publications, issued by the Science and Education Administration-Agricultural Research (SEA-AR) relates to the technical objectives of National Research Program 20770, a program that links research by SEA-AR to other agencies within USDA. The technological objectives of NRP 20770 are (1) integrating plans for reclamation and use of land before mining; (2) restoring disturbed areas to optimum level of agricultural productivity or other uses; (3) stabilizing disturbed areas against erosion, subsidence, and slides; (4) preventing degradation of surface and ground water in and adjacent to disturbed land areas; (5) using waste materials in reclaiming disturbed areas; and (6) improving scenic, wildlife, and aesthetic values of disturbed areas.
