§ 77.145. Reservation of rights.
Department approval of transfer, including, but not limited to, permit transfer does not limit the original permittee’s responsibility, liability, duty or obligation under the law unless release is approved by the Secretary. If one operator succeeds another at an uncompleted operation, by sale, assignment, lease or otherwise, the Secretary may release the first operator from liability under the act as to that particular operation if both operators have complied with the requirements of the act and this chapter, and the successor operator assumes as part of his obligation under the act, liability for grading, planting and reclamation on the land affected by the former operator.
