Full text
47. Residual materials management : The operator of a pit or quarry may also restore the site by establishing a landfill in the pit or quarry in compliance with the Act and regulations made under the Act.
The application for authorization to establish such a landfill must be filed with the Minister or the Government, as the case may be, not less than 1 year before total or partial cessation of the operation of the pit or quarry. In addition, the landfilling must begin at the latest 1 year after the pit or quarry operations have ceased.
If granted, the authorization operates as an amendment to the restoration plan and sections 38, 39, 41 and 42 do not apply to the plan so amended or to the restoration.
