NATIONAL MINE MAP REPOSITORY (NMMR)

"Preserving Mine Maps for Future Generations"

The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) maintains two mine map repositories, one in Green Tree, Pennsylvania, which collects and maintains mine map information and images for all types of mining for the entire country, and one in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, which maintains maps of coal mines in the anthracite coal region of northeastern Pennsylvania.  Some of the customers of the NMMR include; government entities, realtors, land developers, mining companies and homeowners.  Many of the maps in the repository are currently available in digital format and the repository is in the process of scanning all the maps in the collection.
