Chapter 6.80 SURFACE MINING AND RECLAMATION
Section 6.80.080 Filing.
Application for a surface mining permit and for approval
of a reclamation plan shall be filed
with the planning department of the community development agency. The reclamation plan shall
be filed concurrently with the surface mining permit application, along with all required
environmental review forms and information prescribed by the planning director. Said
application shall be filed in accord with this chapter and procedures to be established by the
planning director. The prospective permittee shall submit as many copies of a surface mining
permit and reclamation plan application as required by the planning director. In the case of a pre-existing
surface mining operation described under Section 6.80.050C of this chapter the
reclamation plan shall be filed alone; however, for surface mining operations that are exempt
from a surface mining permit as described under Section 6.80.050C of this chapter, the
reclamation plan application shall include information concerning the mining operation that is
required for processing the reclamation plan, including but not limited to environmental review
prepared pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Sections
21000 et seq.) and the county s environmental review guidelines, where determined to be
necessary by the planning director. (Ord. 99-60 (part): prior gen. code § 8-115.0)
