Abstract
The concept of the integration of reclamation planning with land-use planning is traced historically through this report. Examples are given of successful efforts to integrate these two types of planning in various extractive industries. The processes of land-use planning and plan implementation are described as they relate to resource protection extraction regulation, and site reclamation. In addition, a model for integrating land-use planning and reclamation planning is developed to illustrate procedures for achieving, and factors which might prevent, effective integration of the various planning processes.
