Limits liability, with exceptions, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, or the Solid Waste Disposal Act for damages attributable to activities in the basin undertaken before enactment of this Act. Exempts persons from liability under these Acts for damages attributable to a release or potential release of a hazardous substance resulting from a mining-related activity in the basin engaged in on or before enactment of this Act if such release was caused solely by an act or omission of a third party.
