Section R652-90-400 - Site-Specific Planning1. When the division conducts site-specific planning it shall consider: (a) a comparative evaluation of the commercial gain potential of the proposed use with competing or existing uses;(b) the effect of the proposed use on adjoining sovereign lands;(c) an evaluation of the proposed use or action with regard to natural and cultural resources, if appropriate;(d) the notification of, and environmental analysis of, the proposed use provided by the public, federal, state, and municipal agencies through the Resource Development Coordinating Committee (RDCC) process; and (e) any further notification and evaluations as required by applicable rules.2. During the site-specific planning process, the director may determine that a comprehensive management plan be prepared. In making such a determination, the director may consider: (a) the amount of public interest in the natural and cultural resources of the area;(b) any unique attributes of the land;(c) the potential for conflicts with other land uses; and(d) the opportunities for commercial gain of the sovereign land resources by development of a comprehensive or resource management plan, exchange of the land or other options in lieu of those set forth in the application.3. Site-specific plans for land uses for 20 acres or more of sovereign lands shall be subject to the same public review as comprehensive management plans under Section R652-90-600.4. Any person aggrieved by a site-specific plan for a land use for more than 20 acres of sovereign land is entitled to appeal the plan pursuant to Rule R652-9, even if that person did not provide public comment pursuant to Section R652-90-500.Utah Admin.
