Bill Summary
AN ACT Amending section 27-1271, Arizona Revised Statutes; RELATING to mining.
AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona law regarding reclamation plans for aggregate mining operations, specifically focusing on notice requirements. It removes an outdated provision that stated reclamation plans could be submitted starting January 1, 2006, and clarifies that the notice requirement for proposed aggregate mining units applies only to new plans submitted for new operations after September 15, 2024. The bill also allows for alternative methods of providing this notice, such as through prior public notices related to special use permits, rezoning, or annexation applications, or other public notices distributed within a half-mile radius of the proposed operation. The changes are retroactive to September 15, 2024.
