Utah Admin. Code R645-302-100 - General

110. Introduction. The rules given under R645-302-200 through R645-302-300 establish the minimum requirements for approval to conduct coal mining and reclamation operations under designated special categories and areas of mining. All provisions of R645-301 apply to the designated special categories and areas of mining, unless otherwise specifically provided under R645-302.

120. Objective. The objective of R645-302 is to ensure that special categories and areas of mining are approved only after the Division receives information that shows the coal mining and reclamation operations will be conducted according to the applicable requirements of the Act, R645-301 and any other applicable portions of the State Program.

130. Applicability. Special categories and areas of mining that occur within an approved permit area will be evaluated and approved by the Division within the context of the attendant permit or permit application. Special categories and areas of mining that occur external to an approved permit area will require a discrete permit application for review by the Division. Special categories and areas of mining include all those types and areas of mining described in R645-302-200 through R645-302-320.
