皇冠体育app Coal Authority鈥檚 Licensing department was established in 1994 to issue Licences for coal mining operations and Access Agreements for entry into the Authority鈥檚 coal estate on a cost recovery basis. Since 1994 the Coal Authority has not increased its licensing fees at any time.

皇冠体育app cost of processing applications has increased in inflationary terms during this period so, from 1st September 2014, our fees will be increased to maintain cost recovery. New application fees will also be introduced relating to Incidental Coal Agreements and for Variations to, and Assignments of, current Licences and Access Agreements.
