OAR 632-035-0035: Modification of an Operating Permit

Modification may be initiated at any time by the permittee or by the Department. An operating permit may be modified by approval of the Department after timely notice and opportunity for review as provided by ORS 517.830(4) in order to modify the requirements so that they comply with existing laws, or to accommodate unforeseen developments that may affect the reclamation plan as previously approved. Expansion of an operation beyond original permit area or significant intensification of activity may require recirculation to interested agencies for additional comment.
