(1) Upon receipt of an application for an operating permit, the State Department of Geology and Mineral Industries shall:
(a) Inspect the operating site described in the application; and
(b) Provide notice to the local jurisdiction and an opportunity for the local jurisdiction to, within 30 days after the date of the notice, request that the department delay a decision on an operating permit and reclamation plan as provided in subsection (4) of this section.
(2) Within 90 days after the date that the application and the required permit fee are received, the department shall issue the operating permit applied for or, if it considers the application incomplete, return the application to the applicant for correction of the deficiencies indicated by the department.
(3) Failure by the department to act upon the reclamation plan submitted with an application for an operating permit within the 90-day period referred to in subsection (2) of this section is not a denial by the department of the operating permit applied for. The department, pending final approval of a reclamation plan, may issue a provisional permit subject to reasonable limitations that may be prescribed by the department and conditioned upon the applicant’s compliance with the bond and security requirements established by ORS 517.810 (Requirement for bond or security).
(4)(a) Notwithstanding subsections (2) and (3) of this section, if an application involves an aggregate site that requires a permit issued pursuant to ORS 215.427 (Final action on permit or zone change application) or 227.178 (Final action on certain applications required within 120 days), and if the local jurisdiction requests that the application not be decided until the local jurisdiction has taken final action, the department shall make a final decision on the operating permit and reclamation plan no later than 165 days after the date a complete land use application is submitted to the local jurisdiction, unless the applicant agrees to allow additional time under ORS 215.427 (Final action on permit or zone change application), 215.429 (Mandamus proceeding when county fails to take final action on land use application within specified time), 227.178 (Final action on certain applications required within 120 days) or 227.179 (Petition for writ of mandamus authorized when city fails to take final action on land use application within 120 days). If a plan amendment is required as part of issuance of a permit, the provisions of paragraph (b) of this subsection apply. The department may not approve an operating permit and reclamation plan if the land use application is denied.
(b) Notwithstanding subsections (2) and (3) of this section, if an application involves an aggregate site that requires amendment to a comprehensive plan, as defined in ORS 197.015 (Definitions for ORS chapters 195, 196, 197 and ORS 197A.300 to 197A.325), and if the local jurisdiction requests that the application not be decided until the local jurisdiction has taken final action on the plan amendment, the department may not make a final decision on the operating permit and reclamation plan until the local jurisdiction has taken final action on the plan amendment. The department shall make its final decision within 45 days of the date that the local jurisdiction has taken final action on the plan amendment. The department may not approve an operating permit and reclamation plan if the plan amendment is denied.
(5) Conditions and requirements imposed on an operating permit and reclamation plan, and modifications thereto, issued subsequent to issuance of a local jurisdiction permit shall be compatible with the requirements and conditions of the local government permit, unless more stringent requirements are necessary to comply with the provisions of ORS 517.750 (Definitions for ORS 517.702 to 517.989) to 517.901 (Confidentiality of production records, mineral assessments and trade secrets).
(8) If an application is submitted as part of the consolidated application process under ORS 517.952 (Definitions for ORS 517.952 to 517.989) to 517.989 (Rules applicable to consolidated application), review of the application and approval or denial of the application shall be in accordance with ORS 517.952 (Definitions for ORS 517.952 to 517.989) to 517.989 (Rules applicable to consolidated application). However, the review and approval or denial shall take into consideration all policy considerations for issuing a permit under ORS 517.702 (Legislative findings) to 517.989 (Rules applicable to consolidated application).
