Two leading Interior Department officials in the Trump administration embarked on a visit to Wyoming coal country last week to meet with state partners and tour the nation’s largest and newest coal mines, along the way emphasizing the president’s commitment to the industry.

Casey Hammond, deputy assistant secretary for U.S. Land and Minerals Management, alongside Lanny Erdos, deputy director for the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, met with the governor’s office and Wyoming environmental regulators on Friday to discuss President Donald Trump’s “energy dominance agenda,” among other topics.

“We always want to reiterate that the president cares about Wyoming, he cares about the mining industry and he cares about the coal industry,” Hammond said during an interview with the Star-Tribune on Friday afternoon. “We’re doing our absolute best in being a partner with the state and families of Wyoming.”

The Interior Department is charged with protecting and managing the nation’s natural resources in concert with state officials. The department houses several agencies, including the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, as well as the Bureau of Land Management.



To the Trump administration, one of the department’s core missions involves lifting “burdensome” or “duplicative” regulatory requirements, which only bog down coal operators and prevent the country from achieving “energy security,” according to the department. That also entails encouraging greater investment in the coal industry and generating more regulatory certainty for mineral companies.

“We are trying to create the environment where the industry can be successful and can continue to provide those jobs, continue to be part of our energy future and can continue to provide that reliable source of power,” Hammond added.

For years, the mammoth industry has funneled billions of dollars into the state’s coffers for critical infrastructure, public education and other social services.
